If I am doing the speed limit or better, those behind me can hug a root. If you wanted to be ahead of me, you should have gotten up earlier.

If they want to pass you then they can get into the other lane and pass... Why would you pull off the road just to let them pass... If we are talking cars and pickups then they have a gas pedal, they are small and can pick up speed fast.. So if someone is determined to pass then let them do it on there own.. If it's another truck then same thing applies but I would slow down to allow them to pass quicker...
Sorry but I will not pull over just so someone can pass me.. If I am doing the speed limited or above it then it's on them to pass.. I travel 2 lane roads all the time.. 80km/hr (49mph) speed limited most trucks cars are cruising 90-100km/hr... I am usually doing 90-100km/h (55-62mph).. If someone feels the need to go faster then this then it's on them... I am already going faster then speed limited.. It takes a long time to slow down to pull over and even longer to get back up to speed.. If you keep pulling over you will never get to your location.. I am hauling grossing 60tons and don't feel like constantly pulling over...peterd, michaelg, double yellow and 2 others Thank this. -
and some ought to know what the state law is they're rolling in and what to do when you're that slow moving vehicle with a line up waiting behind.

Or could it be that the people complaining about the too slow people are driving too fast?
gearjammer42 and drvrtech77 Thank this. -
If you do that to me your gonna be back there a long time. No one can make me go faster. Once I set the cruise at the speed limit that's as fast as I go all day. So sit back with your head up my *** as long as you want. It doesn't bother me one bit. You do know when there is a dotted line you can go around right???HotH2o, scottlav46, drvrtech77 and 3 others Thank this.

lots of character Thanks this. -
If I'm in the right lane doing the speed limit get in the left and pass me, I won't make it difficult for you. But don't treat me like crap over the CB, Mr. Supertrucker.
scottlav46, gearjammer42 and lots of character Thank this. -
Don't even pretend like you use the cb
