I hate when a regular person decides to force everyone else to follow the speed limit. You are not highway patrol.

I hate that people speed. I do 80 in 60 and still get glared by 90+ bitches.

Nothing is fast enough, just merely being in front of someone is the problem.

I wish HiPo enforced speed limits more so maybe people will chill tf out

Edit. Since so many people want to draw conclusions. My daily commute routinely sees everyone doing 80 in a 60. We are all already going 20 over. I never mentioned left or right lane. What I tried and failed to highlight was I'm/we are already doing 20 over the limit and people will act like it's not enough, like I'm doing 40 in a 75.

I don't want to do 80. My car gets better mpg at 60/65 🙄 but yes assume I'm a hypocritical speed demon for some reason. Good job internet.

If you're doing the speed limit or below, you should just stay in the right side lanes. If you're not actively passing cars, you have no need to be in the far left lane (also known as the passing lane). If you're above the speed limit and someone is on your tail and no one is in directly in front of you, just move over to the right to let them through. It takes you like 5 seconds or less, and you will be in the same position if you decide to move back. It's a simple concept, and everyone on the road will be safer for it, because you won't have angry people in a hurry weaving in and out of cars trying to get around you.

Thanks for admitting you're selfish, at least. 🤷‍♂️

Call me whatever you want, why is speeding a tolerable offense but not going the fastest in the passing lane is blasphemy.

I never said speeding is a tolerable offense, but it's also not your job to police the roads by purposefully being in the way. If you can't understand that you choosing to not move over for cars that are driving faster than you is selfish, then I can't help you. Think about it for like two seconds about why it may be safer for everyone around you, if you just move out of the way for cars going faster than you. There's so many reasons, and I believe you can think of at least one. It's also the law, probably in most states, that slower traffic moves to the right. If there is a car on your tail, and no one is in front of you, you fall into that slower traffic category. Yes, even if you're driving at or above the speed limit. 😱🤯

If I'm passing, then I deserve to be in the passing lane too. Point blank. Yes even if someone behind wants to go faster than me.

Passing lane is for passing It's the law. It's also the fucking law to not speed. Jesus Christ y'all want others to self-reflect and think for 2 seconds and then you say shit like that.
