[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering the hundreds of thousands of cars on the roads of the Washington area every rush hour, how many tickets get handed out for driving "too slow" in the left lane or staying in the left lane when the right lane is open?  I'm going to guess the number is about zero per year. It does not seem to be a priority for the police.[/quote]

The cops should seriously start ticketing cars blocking intersections, especially during rush hour. This is a very real thing that creates more traffic back-up than necessary.  There's a social cost to this selfishness and it would be a great source of revenue for the states. [/quote]

OH YES.  This would go a long way toward alleviating stress at rush hour.  I don't understand why they don't do this.  They could write 50 at a single intersection in an hour.  At $100 each that would be $5,000.  I'd even be in favor of cops with a handheld camera & mail the ticket so they wouldn't have to hold up traffic.[/quote]
