So you're that obnoxious twit...

Yes.

Speed limits are lower bound in usefulness to cover for of the impotence of some drivers acumen.
Jaxx421
For the love of man kind, please do not be in left lane. Annoying with Chicago traffic, people do the speed limit the left and middle lanes

Why do you get to selectively pick which law to follow but don't was us to selectively pick which law to follow?
feengineer
Every day on my commute. Although I typically do about 72 in a 65. That should be enough! No people still pass me on the right going 90
werewolffbarmitzvah
I typically do between 75 and 80 in a 65 and people pass me frequently. I just get over, not worth it to block the way.
Okebel
I usually go at just below +20 KM/h the speed limit because police tickets start at +20 KM/h + amount with each extra KM. Even then 1/2
Okebel
2/2 there are still people that get stuck right behind me to go faster, thinking i might get pulled over for them. Fuck you.
1Plebian
nah, police almost always pull over the guy in the back.
GoodEveningThisIsWhatAButtDoesPBBPPBBTT
I set cruise control for the speed limit and never have to worry about a speeding ticket. If I have to pass you, then I get mad.
mearas
The fact that people are downvoting you just shows how stupid people are...

Possible Unpopular Opinion: Hannibal Buress is the funniest part of the Eric Andre Show. Also: Spiderman: Homecoming.

Where's that you're not wrong you're just an asshole meme?
cutedeadfox
I don't know why you got downvoted, you said something right. I don't get imgur
InternationalPhoneticAlphabet
if you're gonna be contrarian, post the damn picture instead of asking someone else.
gernjer
You know those "slower traffic keep right" signs? Ever notice that they're always on the right side of the road? Maybe if we moved them...
Octobermode
"Slower traffic keep right" doesn't translate to "It's okay to drive over the speed limit in the left lane," this always bothers me.
PonyMadness
They are on the left side in New Mexico
LongoloidFartExplosion
I was stuck behind one of these cunts today.

Eric Andre show the worst show on television
HelloMax
What? I fucking love that show
uwagapies
lol try the dan ryan at rush. you're doing 85-90 in a posted 60mph zone and cops will still speed past .
DrScott
The Ryan during rush hour you are lucky to be doing 10mph
TwoVhsCopiesOfGoodfellas
I honestly hate the cunts who think "I'm driving the speed limit so there's no need to overtake, I'm just gonna stay in the fast lane"
Tanishh
Stupid and unsafe. Results in tailgating / congestion, frustration, and people passing on the right. Not excusing any of that, but the cries
Tanishh
of 'but this is legal!!!' doesn't change the fact that you know full well what the response will be. And if you know and do it anyway, it's
Tanishh
kinda also your fault now. That's the royal you btw, not you personally. Obviously.
AphidTaco
What about when Im on thr left lane doing 47 in a 40 and someone passes me on the right
johnlesliecmt
Slower traffic keep right, regardless of speed limit.
BadgerSims
Unless they are doing speed limit and need to lawfully overtake a slower driver
r4ff34l
In Germany, both of you would get a ticket. You for blocking the left lane, he for passing on the right.
IAmGodot
dlarrydlarry
Then you shouldn't have been in the left lane. The left lane is for passing. Once you're done passing, move over.
kraquepype
Depends on the state laws.
Phuryninja
Left lane is for passing. Regardless of the state law.
IAmGodot
Not in Ohio, North Carolina, Maryland, or Alaska. If at the speed limit, law allows you to stay left. Still common courtesy to move right.
Tanishh
The law allows political groups to call me asking for money despite my being on the do not call list. Doesn't make it right.
IAmGodot
It's always fun getting downvoted for fact. Those 4 states let you drive in the left lane without passing. Doesn't mean I agree with it.
kraquepype
That's an opinion. The law can differ in each state. Is there a federal left lane law we're missing?
mikeatike
Do you need to pass somebody? No? Then get your ass into the right lane.
Tanishh
I'm torn on this. If I'm going faster than 95% of other cars, it's not only more work but also less safe for me to constantly flip back and
Tanishh
forth every 30 seconds or so. The rule should be 'if someone is approaching you from behind, move right to let them pass, otherwise left
Tanishh
lane is fine.' Changing lanes is probably the most dangerous part of highway driving, other than entering/merging lanes.
mikeatike
It is more safe for everyone if you get the fuck out of the way. Maybe the other guy is a douche for speeding, maybe he should slow down
APackOfExcitedGingers
If this bothers you, stay away from RI/MA. Even the slow lane travels at 5+ mph over the limit
Tanishh
Isn't that just about everywhere? That's for regular streets and highways. If you're going the limit or below, 95% of people are faster.
ruferto
in many place speed limits are kept low either for money making purposes or because they havent updated with the times
kuriosly
It doesn't help that each car has a speedometer that reports a different speed. They are set to +0/-10% of actual speed.
darren535
nyc made the speed limit accross all boroughs 25mph,everyones still doing the same speed, but now when they pull you over you get fined more
ruferto
i get the whole zone zero (w/e its called) thing but its also dumb as hell when i actually have to drive (plus ppl rarely follow it)
1Plebian
Fun fact: outliers aside, traffic/drivers naturally adjust their speed to safe conditions and ignore speed limits that are set too high,
1Plebian
but speed limits that are set too low cause greater discrepancies in traffic speed which is among the highest causes of accidents
Tanishh
Yup. Limit of 55 for half my commute. Most people go 65+. I and many others go around 75-80. Done it for 3.5 years. Never any problems. The
Tanishh
accidents I see are all caused by inattention, road rage, changing lanes without checking, etc. Maybe speed made them worse, but by itself
Tanishh
it does not cause accidents on properly planned highways unless someone doesn't know what they're doing and takes a curve too fast...
PonyMadness
So long as you're going the speed limit in the far right lane, you're aces in my book
CausticCake
And if you're particularly slow, the far right shoulder
RdizzyC
I think most people in this situation are driving on single lane roads.
tifkat
What!?!? What ever happened to keep left unless overtaking? (Ha ha.. geography joke. I'll show myself out)
Erlick
In Detroit slow drivers use the left lane and speeders use the right. Been here 5 years and it still pisses me off
TheZade
Right, go as slow as you want (within reason and the law) as long as you're not holding up others unnecessarily
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED2
I only go slow in the left lane when I'm passing a d some cock gobbler decides to ride my bumper. Then I match the pace of the car I was
RecoveringIntrovert
Do you live in NJ? I think I lane split and kicked your side mirror off before.
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED2
Passing. After a while ill keep slowing down until cock gobbler merges. (Sorry of I offended good driving cock gobblers, I assume some are
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED2
Good people)
fr1080f
Middle as well
BadgerSims
Why do people think they're entitled to break the law by a technicality?
LeonardSimms
If you're going slower than traffic in the left lane you can get a ticket even if you were going the speed limit. Traffic laws are fun.
BadgerSims
That's not what I'm talking about. Its about not exceeding the speed limit while needing to overtake And not caring if it blocks a speeder
kuriosly
How do you know your doing the speed limit? When's the last time you had your speedometer calibrated? Most of them show under fyi.
BadgerSims
Ffs, throw all attempts to follow the law out the window cos the speedo might be wrong... that argument is clutching a straws
IAmGodot
Laws also say stay right except to pass. If you're going to follow the law, follow all the laws.
fr1080f
Passing doesnt mean to use the left lane to travel at a faster speed. A lot of people here probably cause traffic congestion.
BeenthereDonesome
Not all states have that law.
IAmGodot
Almost all states do. And in those that don't, it's still common courtesy to move right if not passing.
BadgerSims
I think your missing my point. I only pass if I need to, but don't exceed the speed limit while doing so. I don't care if it slows Speeders
doihavetobeclever
Okay, grandma.
BadgerSims
Dude I just don't want to forced into getting a ticket or risk my families life. Don't be a condescending ass as default.
Tanishh
You are obstructing other drivers and creating congestion, then. Just because it's legal doesn't mean it's smart, or right.
BadgerSims
Speeding is illegal for a good reason, and I don't want to be fined by peer pressure. If others weren't speeding I'd always be able to merge
gernjer
So...you're the guy doing the speed limit in the passing lane, then. The rest of us would like an intervention.
BadgerSims
I have a 7month old in my car and want to do the speed limit. I overtake when I have to. If you want to speed you can wait until I'm passed.
Hastilygrim
Surely if you passed them, and then they started speeding, they would pass you? Also, if they're speeding, they'll eventually not be near ya
MattHasLanded
Is your 7month old a cop?
BadgerSims
No but he's kinda a big deal
gernjer
Don't get me wrong, when I brought my newborn home I drove 35 in the breakdown lane. But for the rest of us...1/2
gernjer
The right lane is for driving and the left lane is for driving faster. That is why God created two lanes.
BadgerSims
The main problem with this attitude is when I have to overtake someone slow while at the speed limit. Entitled speeding assholes tailgate me
HatsAreEssential
Keeping up with traffic is safer than obeying the law. Most cops see it that way and dont bother people who are speeding if they match.
BadgerSims
Obviously I'm not going to pull in front of a speeding car.you are all kidding yourselves if you think law breakers get to set the standard
ihatecaptcha
You are right, downvoters are wrong, and criminals. They break the law. Period.
BadgerSims
Please find me a law that enables you to go significantly above the speed limit cos everyone else is doing it.That would be a slippery slope
HatsAreEssential
Its called the law of physics. It states that you cause problems if you go too slow on the freeway.
LooseyGooseyBrett
If you pass someone, you should accelerate to the lane speed your passing in.
BtownMountain
Incorrect. Sorry mate.
ihatecaptcha
R u retarded?
LooseyGooseyBrett
No. I'm normal tarded
BadgerSims
I mean legally speaking where does your argument end? Those in the wrong can gradually set the precedent and lawful drivers can't overtake
LooseyGooseyBrett
Legally speaking, you are generally allowed to go the speed of the traffic. I can find regulations stating this if needed.
fr1080f
As long as you dont cut someone off or make them decrease speed. As long as your passing the middle lane you're fine to be in the left.
BadgerSims
To the speed limit. Not the limit speeders are deciding to set.
CargoManshark
Nope fuck that. Speed limit in the left lane all day.
knizill
You're the worst
gernjer
This is this kind of passive aggressive bullshit that hurts my soul.
ianofminnesota
You're going too damn slow!
WhatRaySay
god damnit. I always assumed pure ignorance and lack of awareness... you mean to tell me people are purposely driving this way?! FUCK
Thisiscoolshit
Found the Illinois driver.
ThatsNotMickeyMouseThatsJustTitDirt
To be fair, in Illinois you're either doing 15 over or 5 under.
IronicUsername
The left lane is for passing and stupid people like you create traffic jams.
fr1080f
Traveling in the left lane can cause the middle and right to flow faster though.
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED2
You should be going the speed limit regardless. People who speed also cause problems
A113Disney
I agree. I don't see why speeding prevents traffic jams. Passing is for when people on the right are going under the limit. 1/2
A113Disney
For what it's worth, you've got my upvotes. 2/2
IronicUsername
Being another problem strikes me as a poor solution.
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED2
Going the speed limit isn't a problem though. You're the problem if you think you should be going faster. Tbh, people who speed are the
