    People who use phones while driving cause accidents. People who pass on right create more accidents. People with common sense and who understand the laws will anticipate the condition ahead, signal, check their blind spot, move to the left when clear and will pass safely on the left. The majority of you "professional drivers" providing comments here are neither professional, courteous or properly educated / trained.

    Profile says student... Cant tell if troll or being serious...

    Either Way. I'm sure glad you're here. Why don't you properly educate some of us as to how it should be done? I for one now feel overwhelmed by your knowledge.

    I just had to quote this for the record. Troll doesn't even have a CDL. LMAO.

    Did the teacher tell you what the fine is for passing someone in the middle lane on the left? Hmmm?

    Well. I thought about warning you. I really did.

    ...but it only takes stepping into a hornet's nest once to learn.

    Also, you should be careful. Throwing around names like that we might start to think you're one of those "professionals" you're speaking out against. :biggrin_25522:

    Bless your heart; I hope your day gets better.

    Actually, those same people were causing accidents long before there were phones.

    FTFY

    So, because some idiot insists on driving the middle lane at less the speed limit, I'm supposed to risk what can be a very large ticket in some places, so that I can pass on the left?

    BTW, if you are properly paying attention, there is no 'blind spot.' Yes, there is a spot you cannot see, but you should already know what, if anything, is residing in that spot.

    And you've posted nothing that I see to give me any reason to think you yourself are a 'professional.' Generic insults tossed out just look trollish, and you'll be treated as such until you take the time to mix your criticism with some analysis.
     
    Vilhiem and Al. Roper Thank this.
