I can tell you from experience they do not like you to pull out and pass them even if they are doing under the speed limit. I got a really nasty look and a thumb pointing to get back in line. When he took the next exit it was like the green flag had dropped.
A thumb? A thumb? I got a piece of paper and a court date. A thumb, harrumph.I can tell you from experience they do not like you to pull out and pass them even if they are doing under the speed limit.

One time I was in an expressway and there was an LE up ahead in a marked car in the lane next to mine. He was going 5 mph slower than the speed limit. I was going the speed limit. I passed him on the left. He flashed his overhead lights at me after I passed him. Was I supposed to be afraid passing him going the speed limit? What a jerk.I can tell you from experience they do not like you to pull out and pass them even if they are doing under the speed limit.

Passing on the right bad mojo.One time I was in an expressway and there was an LE up ahead in a marked car in the lane next to mine. He was going 5 mph slower than the speed limit.

The judge certainly would have thrown that case out.I had one stop me for doing 56 in a 55. Wrote me a ticket. Cost $80. I had to just pay it, I was booked with work 6 weeks ahead. It would have cost me $300-$400 to take a day off for court.
Oops. I meant I passed him on the left. I did everything legal. He just thought I shouldn’t have passed him.Passing on the right bad mojo.
Driving in the left lane below speed limit..
Rude at the least.

Correct, Ben. The proper procedure is to get behind him, one car length back for each 10mph, and toot your horn at 5 second intervals until . . . until the situation changes.Passing on the right bad mojo.

The stare patrol gave a guy a ticket for aggressive driving. He had a banner across the top of his windshield that said move right with an arrow. He went to court and lost. When the state wants your money thet will get it.Correct, Ben.

The arrow was his downfall. Should have used a finger.The stare patrol gave a guy a ticket for aggressive driving. He had a banner across the top of his windshield that said move right with an arrow. He went to court and lost. When the state wants your money thet will get it.
