Monday morning vent....

OMG PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL IN THE PASSING LANE. That's my BIGGEST pet peeve. Seriously, it's downright dangerous.

These are also the same people who have NO idea if there's an emergency vehicle is behind them unless the sirens are blaring, and even then they may not notice it. The rearview mirror is there for a reason, people.

Oh, and around here on a multi-lane highway the CENTER lane is the driving lane, the right lane is the entrance/exit lane and the left lane is the passing lane.

Same here.

For the record, I do not drive slowly on the freeway BUT I hate people who drive 10-15 mph OVER the speed limit. It's called a 'limit' because that's the fastest speed you are supposed to go. It's not a mandate for going that speed or faster, ya know?

Then you must hate most people because everyone drives 10-15 mph over the speed limit, at least that's how it is around here.

No, I'll explain. If we're talking about an interstate the law is keep right unless you are passing. If someone is speeding there are other laws for that.

In NH, the left lane is a travel lane not just a passing lane. You can drive all the way thru the state without ever driving in the right lane.

So, let me see if I understand this. A driver traveling AT the speed limit is wrong to be in any other lane except the far right, while every driver going or trying to go twenty miles above the posted speed limit is doing the right thing?

Correct.
