There are only traffic laws in my town, apparently:
- “it’s my turn”
- “I wanna go fast”
The problem is everyone obeys them.

socsa@piefed.social 2 weeks agoThe people who are obsessed with this are also the people who seem to think any person in the left lane at any time gives them justification to aggressively weave in and out of traffic, ignoring the equally present laws against speeding and undertaking.

This is my impression too. The number of times I have been held up by someone hogging the outside lane, or had to change lanes twice around someone hogging the middle, is very low compared to the number of times I’ve been held up by a lorry overtaking another lorry on a two-lane road (perfectly legal, happens at least a dozen times every trip on such roads) or been aggressively tailgated while I’m overtaking traffic (not legal, happens about once per such trip)

Are you one of those people that creates a massive road hazard by trying to pass by driving a single mile per hour faster than the cars in the right lane?

How does that create a “massive road hazard”?
Are you one of those people that creates a massive road hazard by driving two car lengths behind the vehicle in front? Because unlike you I can explain in exactly what scenario that leads to a crash.
