So so f^cking true. I see this all the time during my commute to work and while out and about. A few months ago some clueless woman an Expedition did that to me while my whole family was in the car with me. Instead of attempting to merge BEHIND me the b!tch tried to merge into my frigging car.

I have had people flash their lights back at me once I got around them.... I have had people brake tap me/phantom brake and they wonder why I lay on the horn.... I have tried to pass people on the right and only had them accelerate to speeds 100+ just to cut me off from re-merging... other drivers are so irritating....
I coudlnt disagree more. If it's 65 mph posted and your doing 75 and I'm behind you trying to do 90, MOVE OVER
to those of you saying, "well, why dont you go around on the right" -
that kind of swerving is really dangerous unless it's just you and the car you are passing on the road and nobody else... if the slower driver would yeild, as he is required to by law, there would be no swerving
what annoys me the most is when there's plenty of space in the right lane, and they're going at the EXACT same speed as the people in the right lane... c'mon! move the fvck over! you're going just as fast as the grandma in the next lane, just go follow her you fvcking prick!
Ding Ding Ding!
Sure you have tough guy...
It's games like GTA that I blame for 91TTZ's brutishness and lack of civility . I say we ban that game!
Why is that statement in bold, and in my quote, when I didn't say it?
And you would never pass on the right? Is that what you are saying? It beats pulling out in front of him to slow him down? wtf?
Look, no driver should have to pass on the right, becuase the dumbfvck people who don't go fast enough in the left lane should get the fvck over. The cops need to start ticketing people who do that. The world would be a better place if we didn't have to worry about such stupid things.
It's in the NJ and NY books as safe and courteous driving. Why is it that on the German autobahn they don't have this problem?
The exception is when there is dense enough traffic. If i'm doing 75mph, and for as FAR down the road i can everyone else is going 75mph in the left lane... get off my ass. You aren't going ANYWHERE that i'm not.... unless you're in an emergency and you're flashing and honking like an man on fire - then i'll get over. But don't try to swerve into the right lane to gain 2-3 cars of distance, that IS dangerous.
yea really, there are stories of guys busting out guns and etc. In one case a guy shot the car killing the other driver's kid. its not worth it.
Couldn't agree more. On one hand, I agree with most of the people in this thread that you should move over when someone faster is coming behind you in the left lane. But in morning commutes where all 4 lanes are going pretty much the same speed, I hate people switching over lanes after lanes with less than a bumper distance from the other car, only to gain a few car lengths over 2 miles. If your goal is to get to the destination faster, IT DOESN'T WORK! but what I suspect is those guys are just showing off, in that case, DIE
DAMN THAT GAY TELETUBBIE! I blame him now. You know the one with the triangle on it's head that was alledgedly homosexual?

That is very dangerous, probably MUCH more so than speeding, which is why several states are targeting this very behavior. Heck, in some places you can get tagged for speeding AND driving too slow in the passing lane.
It also makes you a target for road rage.
Hope all that's worth it to piss off someone you have never met.
ok, I'll pretend that my last couple of replies to this thread don't count . Soooo...are you saying that cops are going to ticket me for doing the speed limit in the left lane? Do you REALLY think they'll do that? I'd LOVE to go to court to explain to the judge, that yes, I was caught doing the speed limit...bad Amigaman! Hell I wouldn't even mind paying the court costs just to see the reaction of the judge. And if obeying the law makes me a target for road rage, then who's really to blame here?
Oh and read the frickin thread before you make yourself look even stupider!
damnit is EVERYONEs frickin sarcasm meter broken? I mean geez, I practically spelled it out in the last post. READ MY COMMENTS, particularly the one where I agree that I'm just FVCKING with you all! Damn, you people and your non-sarcasm catchingness...
this happened to me once too. a truck was going about 70mph or so in the left lane and i was coming up on him so i get in the right lane to pass and as i accelerate so does he and we are up to about 100mph and there is a semi in front of me so i quuickly merge back over and cut the truck off and put on the brakes so i dont hit the car in front of him. anyways he is now pissed for me cutting him off and flips me off then throws a cup of soda at me and takes the next exit. now this could all have been avoided if he wasnt such a jackass and didnt speed up so i couldnt pass. could have caused a really bad accident but we got lucky.
hah, idiot. i was doing 80mph when I got pulled over for "fail to keep right." that was a $137 ticket. explain to the judge you failed to keep right? there you go.
Dunno if it is different in the US but is´nt it the law also to drive on the right. Here it is, unfortunately Police is more going after tailgater than left lane hoggers.
Thats the theory. However, in reality alot of ppl are not returning to the right lane which can be quite annoying. Also speed differences can be and often are quite substantial. Quite frequently you have to stomp the brakes (usually because some idiot didnt check the rearview mirror or was unable to estimate the speed of the vehicle coming from behind before switching to the left. And of course dont forget the truck that is going 80.1 km/h trying to pass the truck going 80km/h.
it is not all rosy on the Autobahn and it seems people get dumber and dumber by the year.
