Kinda crazy how many people are this ignorant. They are afraid of cops pulling them over for breaking the speed limit apparently but at the same time not content enough to stay in the slow lane. Well turns out they will get tickets for that in certain places. Don't be like them: https://www.reddit.com/r/SipsTea/comments/17v0cih/the_left_lane_is_for_passing_not_about_just/ ...

so what does fast mean?Subjective, I guess. If you're on a two lane road and the person in the right lane is going 10 below, you aren't technically breaking the law by passing them in the left lane going 9 below. Should you? Of course not. You should at LEAST be maintaining a 5-10mph difference when passing. The less time spent close to other cars, the better.

A_Good_Boy posted... How? As traffic increases rate of accidents go up exponentially. Improper passing creates traffic. Whereas flow on the road would be normal you have create a stoppage and people start braking and causing an interesting artificial phenomenon where the braking seeps through the cars like a spring. And all you had to do was just pass a fucking car in like a second or two but you chose to take like a whole minute cause you never learned proper driving. smh https://www.hg.org/legal-articles/traffic-congestion-can-cause-car-accidents-50981
You should care about other drivers and try to minimize traffic as much as possible. People passing like this are clueless like they don't realize there is other people on the road and how dangerous making a stoppage of traffic is. ... Copied to Clipboard!

"Don't impede traffic in the left lane" and "don't speed" aren't mutually exclusive.
Somebody going the speed limit but staying in the left lane could possibly be impeding traffic, and should probably get a ticket if they are. That said, somebody speeding to pass should also probably get a ticket. Logically, the cop should have pulled over people speeding to go around the guy, as well. It came down to his discretion, and he decided to pull over the driver impeding traffic, since it was technically causing the more dangerous situation, since so many cars were speeding and he couldn't possibly pull them all over. That doesn't really make him more wrong than the cars that were speeding, though. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you are trying to pass someone going the speed limit and you are also going the speed limit you are not passing you made a wall out of stupidity and you should have stayed in the right lane also creating the more dangerous situation does infact make them more wrong as the point of passing would be for example the car passing was going the speed limit until they came upon a car in front going 7 miles under or something passing somewhat over the limit is the safer move and if you are that afraid that a cop will ticket you for 5 miles over then why even try to pass? just sit in the right lane then behind the guy I mean the same logic of "speeding doesn't save time!" applies to you in the right lane wanting to pass a guy going 7 miles under the limit or whatever why are you passing them if you so afraid to accelerate for 1-2 seconds before getting back over? ? ...

Here's the problem.
The guy wouldn't be impeding traffic if he wasn't in that lane to begin with. However, he also wouldn't be impeding traffic if all of those cars weren't speeding to begin with. Hence, they're ALL wrong, but the cop could only pull over one, so he used his discretion to decide which one might lessen the dangerous situation most, even though the others are just...

StealThisSheen posted... Here's the problem. The impeding is when you are in the passing lane for a minute or more, some unreasonable amount of time just because you don't know how to do it there is a reason the signs and law say "for passing only" yet you are going 55 to pass someone going 54 and people unconsciously also speed up when someone is passing them so you might not realize it but all the sudden they speed up to 55 or 56 as you sit there at 55 super afraid of a ticket so there you are sitting there trying to pass but you aren't passing cause you have no fucking idea how to do it properly and it has been several minutes explain to me. is this passing only? or are you just now driving in the left lane? You have broken the law and impeded traffic meanwhile someone learned and proper in driving was going 55 and came upon the guy going 54 they accelerate to pass the guy up they notice the guy unconsciously speeds up as they are passing so they compensate within a few seconds they have passed and move back into the right lane and decelerate to 55 traffic is not impeded, the passing lane is cleared, people are able to move one and they can cruise properly ...
