note to 6-wheelers driving in CA: you're a car!

Since your vehicle only has 2 axles, not only are you are free to go as fast as the 4-wheelers, you can also ignore truck lane restrictions: "Vehicles that are required to travel at a maximum of 55 mph on California highways must use a designated lane or lanes." (emphasis mine)

Unlike cars, you might have to go into weigh stations, but that's about it. So if you see me not getting over to let you pass, now you know the reason why.
