Wow, you're the reason nobody has any respect for us. Why does some innocent family have to die because someone passed you on the right and couldn't stop before slamming into them, just because you have to have the middle lane over some imaginary principle? You share a responsibility for everyone else's safety whether you want to or not. But hey, hopefully the next family to die in this case isn't yours.Raiderfanatic and x#1 Thank this.

You are quite the jewel.
Why are you passing on the right a vehicle that is running the legal speed limit and then crashing into a merging vehicle. Talk about a stupid driver.
No wonder we look bad. -
Right, you never drove on a highway. I'm not talking about ME passing on the right. I'm talking about EVERYONE padding on your right. Every car that has to get into that lane because you're getting on the way of traffic, is av potential person hitting someone getting on the highway. And again, for what? Pure stubbornness because you have to sit in that lane for no reason other than stamping your feet and screaming "I want to"Raiderfanatic Thanks this.

You have done nothing but complain about the people running in the lane you want. If they are doing the speed limit tough. If the idiot 4 wheeler did not know that their exit was coming up, they should have had plenty of time to move over.
Your excuse is nothing more that a strawman argument.Stile, BigBluePeter, SheepDog and 1 other person Thank this. -
And in nj, state law, actually a lot of the northeast. For very valid reasons that you don't want to listen to because nobody puts baby in the right lane. Is all about you, and #### every other driver who is sick behind you. If I can move over and let them pad, so can you
-
Do everyone a great big favor.
Drive your own truck and keep out of others.Stile Thanks this. -
Bottom line, driving in whatever lane, is a CHOICE... We have that freedom here, in fact, everywhere is that given right, whether it is wrong or right. So what I am saying is, just respect the fact that "the driver" made a CHOICE and it is ok if you don't like his/her CHOICE but, your OPINION is just that, an OPINION. BTW, thanks for it... Now lets all be safe, respectful and wave at a fellow trucker when they pass,,even if they don't wave back.
-
Yeah, you have a choice. Doesn't mean you're not holding up traffic, breaking state traffic laws, adding more hazard to the road... I've worked with traffic way before I started driving. Choice or not, there's a reason why any populated area has that sign that says keep right, pass left. This isn't trucking, this is basic traffic. This is something that's 100% the same between a car and a truck
Raiderfanatic Thanks this. -
most of the ones clogging the middle or left lane are doing so because that is all they can do.misery loves company.Georgia is writing tickets for holding up traffic now. way past time for states enforcing the slower traffic stay right law.hopefully those that don't seem to get it will get it,and let's hope it costs them.Raiderfanatic Thanks this.
