Left lane losers make US highways dangerous

(I would like to point out that I was using the turn signal at all times as I normally do. The Viper signal is very easy to hit with one finger and also hold in the on position silently before the click)

So, if I'm standing right in the middle of a hallway or doorway, and I know you're trying to get by, but I refuse to move, I suppose you're okay with that because, after all, I'm acting within the law and there's no rules against it, right? Met one of these righteous guys like 30 years ago in (court ordered) driving school, of all places. He said, "I'm doing the speed limit, so I don't have to move over". His statement got one of those subtle yet loud and clear audible reactions from many of the people in that class. These people are absolutely part of the problem with their self-righteous disregard for everyone else on the road, throwing common courtesy out the window and happily antagonizing people who, for all you know, might be experiencing some kind of major emergency and can't get past you because of your (not very well thought out) high principles. These are the type of people who trigger road rage incidents. Personally, I think many of these people are getting some kind of thrill from being able to exert some form of control over others. My rule is, if you're in the left lane and you're not passing anyone, you don't need to be there. MOVE OVER.

Most people are too Ego-based when it comes to driving. Everything is interpreted as a personal attack against them. It's frustrating!!

[Kabilibobers]

Sadly I think people who are watching this video aren’t the ones that are causing the problem.

[freakymrq]

My rule of thumb is to assume that everyone is stupid and they're going to do something stupid and be prepared

The problem is competitiveness. People seem to think they're in a race and don't like people getting in front of them even though their overall time to destination remains the same.

I rant about this all the time and the people who are often the offenders of this say "well you should be going the speed limit it's not called the fast lane!" You're right... its not called the fast lane. It's called the Passing lane.

The most frustrating thing about "Left lane Hogs"
Left Lane Hog: Driving 55 in a 60
Me: Well I am going around this person (As I am about to pass)
Left Lane Hog: Is this car trying to pass me!!! SpeedRacer activated

[KandP]

Lol, in my experience its the younger people who move out of the way and the older folks who hog the lane

[nickb]

As a roadtripper i cant agree more. Another dangerous thing people tend to do is start turning or come to a complete stop before using their turn signal. They completely defeat the purpose of the signal.

[taylorwest]

Ah, zombie drivers. The driving dead. Once alive and alert enough to acquire a driver's license, but now cursed to rot in the left lane for all eternity.

[roadworthy]

This should be playing at the DMV while you wait.

[rebel]

I hate it when you pass a slow driver and as you’re in the act of passing them they decide THEN to speed up which causes you to either have to drive even faster or hover next to them!

[NPC_Driver]

You did so good at speaking constantly in this video. Almost no empty space, no "umms and uhs", and you rattled off really good points and engaging commentary.

I also live in Ohio and I saw on one of the digital highway signs that read "Camp in the Ohio state parks, not the left lane." hahaha It is a serious problem though.

[drucifer_too]

In over 35 years of driving I found this to be true, " no matter how fast you go in the left lane there will eventually be someone behind you that for whatever reason will want to go faster." It's the passing lane for a reason.

[gblazei]

100 percent agree, this is why I love driving in Germany..biggest ticket you can get there is not yielding right of way in left lane

[digge]

This is hilarious because everybody is doing at least 5-10 miles over the speed limit in the places I've lived. There's the same issue, but to pass people you'll have to go even further over the limit

[DeepCover]

If someone passes you on the right, you’re in the wrong lane.

[cheezyridr]

There are tons of people who think its their mission in life is to be a pace car.

[karlporath]

Even worse, after 3 miles I get an open spot to pass you (you're doing 5 under) by the time I get my rear duals next to you, you speed up 10 mph, and now I'm stuck in the left lane with my semi. Now everyone is passing me on the right, and looking at me like I'm the problem.
