    It's usually trucks with a Louisiana tag flying in the left lane. I'm the ####### always blocking #### up in the right lane doing exactly 55 mph.

    This will never change,if anything it will get worse.As people's patience and lack of attention has grown very thin over the years.I have drove 20 years and alot has changed.Mostly due to the lack of respect or concern for other drivers

    The article mentioned it was three different wrecks piled up in one pile, so that leads me to belive something besides running too close was involved. I can see that happening, but not so much three times. I have driven that bridge many times way before they went to trucks only in the right lane, and the only problem I had with it has always been rough.

    I’ve seen a few “He Man Super Truckers” flying in that left hand lane with Texas tags as well.
    One thing is for certain-there’s going to be a few drivers owing Louisiana a ishload of money!

    It truly has become out of control out here.

    We all have Bills and families.. If you can't 'control' yourself as a professional driver... GET OUT.

    We are sick n tired of you Barry bad@sses causing issues on a daily basis.
