You don't obey the speed limit


Never said I did. But it's the police job to enforce it, not the jerk in
the left lane doing 10 under.


Who says the guy is trying to enforce the speed limit? Did you ask him?

It's not YOUR job to enforce the "stay right except to pass" law either.

While you are sitting there fuming about him not staying right, he may well
be sitting there fuming about you not being able to keep your speed under
control. What makes your anger more righteous than his?

Hey, you aren't supposed to do that here, and I think it's a stupid
rule. If you're going to slow, I'm going to pass you, I don't care in
which lane I have to do it in.


Or which strip of grass through the median, dammit...

Yep, I wish they'd make it illegal here to drive in the left lane, like
they did in Indiana.


The thing is, here in Texas, at least once you get out of the major metro
areas and on 2-lane roads, people will actually pull over onto the emergency
lane to let you pass them when they see you coming up behind them... Then
again, some of our farm-to-market roads are probably better than other
states' major highways...

Talk about being lost for the first 6 months


So, were you stuck on the LBJ for that 6 months or just on Beltline?

Guilty of doing that once, in Chicago....although technically it was a
grass shoulder on the interstate.

I'm not quite sure, LBJ has about ten different names.

There are ten kinds of people in the world. Those that understand
binary, and those that don't.
