1. SPEED LIMIT 45
2. TRUCKS USE LEFT LANE
3. SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT

1st two are temporary signs and surely supersed the third which is permanent if I had to guess.

Lilbit Thanks this. -
The left lane requirement is usually where there has been a lane shift and the former shoulder is now the right lane . The shoulder was not built to withstand constant heavy trucks . Many drivers will drive in the left lane in these circumstances with or without the signs .

Illinois has trks left lane in alot of their construction.If their's alot of traffic and my exit is say a mile down the road,im staying in the right lane.

Yeah I had a stop sign on I-40 weight station had a stop sign and then underneath had a sign that said 'stop until scales are clear', it was empty so I creeped on in and got my head bit off by my trainer. Lesson learned.

sign #3 is the one that most of the mega carrier drivers and those trainer by them, ignore on a regular basis.
there is no small print that says," unless going the speed limit"
WHY ????!!!!!!
never had a trainer, self taught, yrs ago.
so I don't know how you guys are taught now. if at allcrb Thanks this. -
If you're traveling at the speed limit, then you cannot be slower traffic unless another vehicle is traveling above the posted speed limit. A lane change is arguably the most unsafe legal action taken by CDL drivers. If I'm traveling at the posted speed limit in a lane that's legal for me to travel in, then I'm not going to compromise safety by changing lanes to accommodate illegal traffic.Ghost Ryder Thanks this.
