That it’s for passing or maybe they just want to police everyone else

The left lane is commonly referred to as the "fast lane", but that is not an accurate description of the lane's purpose. The left lane is the designated passing lane
hate to stereotype but black females are the worst about driving under 70 in passing lane. Also do police ever write tickets for people going “ slow “ in fast lane?

I’m the dude that drives the speed LIMIT. Even old grannies flip me off as they are passing me

Same people that park their cars at gas pumps although not pumping gas.

The world is full of shitty people. I was kind of hoping for an apocalypse yesterday.

All I know is that if I am in the left lane running with traffic with two or three cars in front of me and your arse flies up on my bumper like I can do a damn thing about it......I hope you get gonorrhea and your dick falls off.

I've seen a handful of the most oblivious fools get pulled over for it. You pretty much have to be blocking a police officer long enough for him to think the paperwork is worth it.

If they're going the speed limit in the left lane IDK why anybody would be upset about it since it's illegal to pass them.

I have seen a couple of people pulled over for staying in the left lane under the limit and definitely impeding traffic.

1 was a white guy 30-something with real long hair. Probably stoned. The other was a black female and could have been anything including maximum her POS car could go.

The last person any police anywhere arrested someone after driving slow in the left lane was OJ Simpson back in '94.
But, there were extenuating circumstances.

left lane going speed limit,

Pisses me off
When I’m in the left lane already going 80mph because everyone else in the right lane is going 65-70mph and some dickhead comes up behind me right on my arse pisses me off more. I’m sorry I’m not going 100mph, a-hole. A small part of me always kinda hopes that person loses control and hits a tree right after I get over.

Yes.

It's pretty SOP here for LEO to do this for DWI/Drug purposes, too.

I've had to explain to many TX drivers that they are not, in fact, allowed to just sit in the left lane, no matter how fast they are going.

This is why I have super bright LED lights.

I ride a little to the left so my lights are right in your driver side mirror blinding your dumb arse.

They should write tickets for left lane pokes more than speeders. I would. It seems to be the Texas license plates, old people color vehicles such as beige and their style cars like Honda CRVs. I see black woman on their phones texting holding up the middle lane.

Watch a few videos on how Dale Earnhardt used to get people out of his way.

Take the toll lane if you’re in that big of a hurry. We left on time and prefer to drive safely. That’s what speed limits are for.

You want to set a precedent for police to write people tickets for not breaking the law?
