Move right back into the left lane.

You can't fix stupid.

You didn't just go around? Lazy and pathetic. I doubt you would have even been capable.

Good for them for being courteous to move unlike your antisocial behavior and then resuming what they had been doing.

You're a bad driver.

^^ example of an idiot VA/MD driver who doesn't understand universal road etiquette (stay right, pass left; flash lights to remind people to get over - it's nothing personal).

^^example of an idiot entitled VA driver who would rather get into a p***ing match and stew over a driver who's minding their business because they cannot drive correctly. Like most VA drivers

"Minding their business"??? No - they need to pay attention to the road and follow the very basic rules of the road. It's no time for day dreaming. If that's too difficult for you then consider public transportation.

Newsflash homie, since perhaps you have been living in a redneck bubble your whole life: plenty of states don't have laws that you have to move over to leave a clear left lane after passing. PLENTY of them. So plenty of people, in those states, use the left lane as a general "I'm going much faster than the general speed limit so I'll stay here".

You don't have to like it. I don't like how boneheaded VA drivers operate. But I don't come up flashing my lights behind you guys every time I see you, say, going UNDER the speed limit in the left lane, or tailgating someone else, etc. I go around. It's what adults do. You should try it sometime.

Please, this thread was obviously started by a terrible MD driver. Every weekend MD plates descend upon DC to rack up DUIs, hit and runs, and flip-overs. I have lived in actual third-world places where there are no roads and everyone drives a 1970's Toyota pickup with bullet holes in it and one door. Guess what? Driving on those roads is much safer and more pleasant than driving anywhere in MD. A MD driver will gladly kill your entire family (and her own) if it means getting somewhere 5 minutes faster. They actually take pride in it- congrats, you are simply terrible at something so basic that we allow children to do it when they turn 16. Congrats at being so selfish and nasty that you are a risk to life.

I'm not from VA. I have lived most of my adult life in NY and CA. I've also driven in several countries overseas. The very basic rule of the road is to stay right and pass on the left. It's universal. Sorry you are so limited in your experiences to not know that.

VA and MD drivers are hanging out in the left lane like they have no clue. I usually go around myself because they are slow as F to move over, but I was pointing out that PP was flashing his lights appropriately. Don't take it personally, granny. Just get out of the f*cking left lane.

Hey, loser. The fact that you are from California alone essentially nullifies your vote. Looking at the states most consider to be "worst drivers", California takes the damn cake- there's almost a complete consensus on the west coast that you all are horrible drivers.


Even still, you fail to understand that NOT EVERY STATE HAS LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING ONLY laws. I observe it because I've driven extensively in states that hav e those laws. I'm also not psychotic enough to spend my time tailgating or flashing my lights at people who don't- go the hell around! If that's a hardship for you- don't drive! Got it, gramps?

[Anonymous]

I would pay large amounts of money to be behind the MD drivers that you are all behind. Every MD driver I see is driving 5mph under the speed limit, and always in the left lane. MD license plates alone could drive me into road rage at this point.

[Anonymous]

It's not the rednecks. They stay in the country and are afraid to drive in the cities.

If the speed limit is 65, and I'm doing 75 in the fast lane, I'm not gonna move over so you can do 90 in the fast lane. You should slow down. Since you want to drive illegally anyway and choose not to slow down, then you can pass me on the right, but don't tailgate me, give me the finger, or yell obscenities when I'm driving the speed of normal fast traffic. Sometimes I have tried to get over to the right, but the speed demons go so fast they start to pass me on the right before I have a chance to finish getting over. So I don't get over anymore because it's more dangerous getting in the way of an aggressive driver.

Every f*cking state has some kind of law about who should be in the left lane. It is NOT YOU. You do not belong there. GTF over if someone wants to pass you. You are the reason that everyone hates Virginia drivers. You think you're all badass going 67, because ohmygod, going any faster is reckless driving where I come from!

Great comeback, gramps. I usually drive in the right lanes, but I think I'm gonna have to merge on over to the left lane now and park it there. Just because all you charmers react so sanely to it

Don't take it all so personally, Mr Road Rage. Just stay out of the left lane or better yet take the bus.
