Comment on Oregonian driving
Croquette@sh.itjust.works 4 months agoThere are a few simples principles that would make traffic a lot better, and yielding the left lane for faster cars is one of them.
The other simple one is if you are not passing another car, stay on the right.

I assume that’s the law pretty much everywhere. That said, most of my troubles have been with people who speed by a lot and weave through traffic. Slower cars are less of a problem because while it might be the same speed difference, I see them much better and they usually don’t switch lanes erratically.
That said, I like traffic where I live now, because speeding 15% will get your license suspended, 30% will get you into jail. Traffic tends to be speedy, but coherent, everyone drives around the limit.

They weave because of the slow cars not moving properly

Weaving is not moving properly though either. Speeding and weaving through traffic is public endangerment where I live. We have a very good road safety record as well.
