      Situational awareness is key.

      10 over on left lane (right for UK) while the other one is free? You’re the entitled speed police asshole. He’s the dumb tailgating idiot.

      10 over the other way around? You’re doing nothing wrong. He’s still the dumb tailgating idiot.

      I don’t condone assholery on the road, but it’s still my license and my fine if I’m speeding up for a tailgater. So if the right lane has slow traffic and I’m overtaking on the left, I’ll stick to whatever speed on or above the limit that I consider safe. Unless the tailgater has blue lights flashing, I’m not obliged to do a damn thing.

        Yeah you are, you’re endangering yourself and those around you by traveling at an unsafe speed.

      Not sure why all the down votes. Most states it’s the law the right lane is passing only.

      So you’re the tailgating truck driver in this meme?

  Lol, no, we don’t reward selfish pricks

  • Crazyslinkz@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    The problem isn’t that you are rewarding anyone anything. Your causing traffic and safety hazards if you are forcing someone to pass on right when it’s the law in most states to use the left lane as passing only.

      You are causing traffic and safety hazards

      Driving a consistent speed on cruise control isn’t doing that, dumbass, it’s the guy riding your ass and trying to speed who’s made a hazard

      forcing someone to pass on right

      Show me the gun I’m using to threaten them into this, or explain how I make their wheels change direction

      Also: one lane roads exist & are way more common than multi lane roads for this kind of incident

      nobody forces someone to do anything. they CHOOSE to pass illegally in addition to speeding illegally.

      i’ll eventually move over when it is safe.

      and when you react during this period like a douche and roof your car from behaving like a child, guess who’s going to show up at your mva? this guy, dressed like the first responder I am. guess who’s going to remind you I have dashcam footage of your overreaction and behavior?

      If I’m going at or above the speed limit then one can pass if that’s not fast enough. If they can’t pass for whatever reason: that’s their problem, not mine

      I control everyone’s speed. I am god.

      • Just about every truck owner who pulls the above mentioned shit.

      Bonus points for lifted, extra big wheels, and whatever other shit country music suckered them into buying. Meanwhile their truck bed has no scratches, or is covered, and the truck itself only has seen the highway. They don’t own a truck - they own a clowned up SUV and a testosterone deficiency.

  No reason to move over if you are already at the speed limit. If you are over you should slow down.

  • Signtist@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    There’s a reason for those “slower traffic move right” signs. People drive at different speeds - if the people behind want to go faster than the people in front, it’s their responsibility to let them pass, so long as there’s a safe space in another lane to do so.

      Yes yes there are, but they aren’t there to appease criminals who can’t follow the rules.

      Rules for thee but not for me!

      There are minimum speeds laws as well, and those roads are where the slower traffic move right signs are. You are extremely unlikely to find them in city and not on highways.

      They are designed because of mainly 3 types of people on the road.

      1. traffic that is too heavily loaded to accelerate quickly enough to maintain speed due to dynamic road conditions. Typically large commercial transport and vehicles towing or hauling something.

      2. Older vintage/classic/non-passenger vehicles that can’t or shouldn’t be traveling at the speed limit, but ARE still legal to drive on those roads

      3. Vehicles experienced pronlems but are still drivable.

      We don’t have those here, going over the speed limit is illegal and if caught a few times you are banned from driving

        Where that? I would love if more people had their licenses revoked in my area

• iamjackflack@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  So your solution to someone tailgating you while in the driving lane is to pull over into the passing lane and slow down to let them pass? Real genius…
