Just went to San Angelo this weekend, 18 wheelers trying to pass took almost 2.5 miles to get around each other, think they were exchanging info....then the jacked up "jack wagons" with headlights not adjusted on the two lane roads. WTF....life goes on but surely stupid can be fixed by this time in history....

I passed 32 cars in the right lane today just on my way to work dead_horse
They all got the left courtesy blinker from from Wratherford to Fort Worth. Just a typical drive to work.

Usually Okies. They're apparently not taught to only use the left lane to pass.

SUV with paper tags are far and away the vehicles I most frequently encounter bottle butting along in the hammer lane.

Had to go to Waco yesterday on I-35 and just out side of Temple hit a brake check of slower traffic. Finally made to the problem. Newer gray Corolla in left lane doing 60mph. Noticed BLM stickers on the rear bumper so I had to look to the left as I passed. A woman of at least 250 lbs was mean mugging me. Smiled and accelerated before I did something stupid.

Cross the state line and go into Louisiana. It is a given birthright that they can go 55mph in the passing lane while holding a cell phone in one hand and whatever they happen to be eating in the other!!

I try to stay off the highways as much as possible but, when I do I'm in the fast lane getting where I need to go. I run my high beams/Brights in the daytime, it usually helps to persuade them to move over and let me by. If that doesn't work I'll flash my brights as I am approaching.

Exhaust break on full, hit the CANCEL button for the cruise and let them eat the bumper. I do this all the time. It’s a lot more effective when I’m pulling a trailer with brakes, take foot off gas pedal and squeeze the manual override for the brake controller which won’t signal the brake lights.

There have been times where someone is driving slow in the passing lane and I was able to go around get in front of them then let off the gas and turn my right blinker on while using my hand with my index finger pointing for them to move over. I would only do that if there were no vehicles in the left lane behind them.

Sometimes it works.

Long time ago I was driving in the left lane with the flow of traffic up I 35 in Denton and this Kia Soul with a real stout dude wearing either a PoPo uniform or Security officer uniform entered the freeway and without using his blinker swung all the way over in the left lane right in front of me then slowed down to the posted speed limit which was slower than the flow of traffic.

I flashed my lights initially, then honked and I knew this moron could see me and was just being an A Hole. I tried passing him on the right and he sped up to prevent me from getting past him for which I finally did, we were both dog cussing and flipping each other off. He finally exited but what a douche bag!

Then when a 2 lane, passing lane comes up, they will speed up to 75.

Or 80+...to keep you from passing, coming south outa Luckenbach on 1376. Closest I've come to shooting someone. Might (? grin) have been alcohol involved on his side. That road played a big part in selling the place.

Yes.

The same road I'm talking about goes from 1 to 2 lane, back to 1, then 2 again. Every time it goes back to 1 lane, they slow down. It's like they are claustrophobic, so they cannot drive as fast as they could with a spare lane beside them.

I back the Blue. When I pass these idiot [censored] at 95 I make a point. If you pull in front of me a decision was made and I will not lift. BIL likes my radar detector and it has worked awesome. Escort X50. If I get a ticket I deserved it and a good conversation with LEO will take place. That plan has worked for going on 9 years.
