The law is only the law -- it is clearly imperfect. Everyone has to share the road and swallow their pride, and do whatever is necessary to not contribute to more dangerous conditions, even if you are right and they are wrong -- others share the road. Innocent passengers -- children even -- are all in it together. There is no room for vigilantism or personal vendettas against other drivers.

i need ideas for my movie,

- girl mutitasking in the left lane
- guy listening to Jesus and friends while cussing at other drivers
- Willie, who hates everyone
- truckers who take up the other lane in a merger
- a cop who turns his lights on, does and illegal u-turn, then turns his lights off
- trigger happy woman giving people break checks
- a guy who never uses a turn signal
- and two guys in WHAMBULANCE where the door to the back compartment opens, Leslie Neilson leans out and says "I just wanted to tell you good luck, we're all counting on you."

anything else

You know, I actually don't brake check all that often.
If someone is riding my ass, I give them a chance to get off it, and most of the time, they do so before I decide it's brake-check time. And, I think my tolerance for tailgaters is a lot more lenient than other people's. You've got to be pretty fucking close before I'll brake check you.

I speed pretty bad so it's rare when I brake check someone, but I don't feel bad about it when I do it

so in Kentucky they have "KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS" signs...I like the wording on those better than the "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT" signs

same principle, but people are too goddamn retarded to comprehend the rule regardless of what you put on a sign

Quote :
"[edit] Misuse and common practice
Common Practice and most law on United States Highways is that the left lane is reserved for passing and faster moving traffic, and that traffic using the left lane must yield to traffic wishing to overtake. The United States Uniform Vehicle Code states:

Upon all roadways any vehicle proceeding at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing shall be driven in the right-hand lane then available for traffic ...

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology's website on "Keep Right Laws" points out that:

This law refers to the "normal" speed of traffic, not the "legal" speed of traffic. The 60 MPH driver in a 55 MPH zone where everybody else is going 65 MPH must move right..."[1]

It is also illegal in many states in the U.S. to use the "far left" or passing lane on a major highway as a travelling lane (as opposed to passing), or to fail to yield to faster moving traffic that is attempting to overtake in that lane. For example, Colorado's "Left Lane Law" states:

A person shall not drive a motor vehicle in the passing lane of a highway if the speed-limit is sixty-five miles per hour or more unless such person is passing other motor-vehicles that are in a non-passing lane...(emphasis added)[2]

Other examples, such as Massachusetts (General Statute 89-4B), New Jersey, Maine, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and others, make it illegal to fail to yield to traffic that seeks to overtake in the left lane, or to create any other "obstruction" in the passing lane that hinders the flow of traffic. As a result, heavy trucks are often prohibited from using the passing lane.

A common problem arising from misuse of the "fast lane" is that it forces faster moving traffic that wishes to overtake on the left to change lanes, do so on the right, and then change lanes again. Further, if the vehicle misusing the passing lane is going slower than the flow of other traffic, it forces those using the middle "travel" lane (but who are moving faster) to pass on the right as well, even though they have no intention of doing so.

A driver hoping to pass a slow motorist in the "fast lane" is stuck in an awkward situation. One strategy is to signal a lane change toward the center median. Another is to flash headlights. A third, which sacrifices safety, is to drive very close to the "fast lane" driver's bumper (this is known as tailgating). In Germany it is common to signal a lane change toward the center of the road, as if there where another lane to the left of the "fast lane".

Most commonly, motorists will attempt to overtake the outer car on the inner lane either to continue at a fast pace or to pass a car that is simply going too slow in the passing lane. For high-capacity multilane freeways (three or more lanes per direction), many motorists often pass on the inner lane, largely in response to misuse of the "passing lane" by slower traffic."

^^^Is this even relevant to argument anymore?

Most of these don't directly apply to NC, but I think I would conclude that making a +5MPH effort to pass slow-moving traffic would always be a legitimate use of the left lane. If someone wants to go 105MPH, you should not have to speed up to do so if you're steadily gaining on traffic to the right (+5MPH is 440 ft/min). We should note that some cars aren't stable to drive above certain speeds (tire ratings, inherent design), and drivers themselves only have skills that permit them to comfortably travel at certain differentials above the limit (I've been 25 MPH on US 264 before due to heavy snow in Wilson Co.)
