OP stop cruising in the left lane. You should have been paying attention to your mirrors and notice that someone faster was approaching, giving you opportunity to move over. I don't flash my lights at people, but you should have been aware of his presence before he had the opportunity to do so. Pay attention to your surroundings. Check your mirrors constantly. Slower traffic keep right.

yeah so sure OP is at fault, and not the driver who tailgated at 80MPH and then passed her on the shoulder! GTFO. [/quote]

The rule is not "10 miles over keep left" it's "slower traffic keep right" - ie, it's relative.

I'd like an explanation from OP on how it was possible for the other driver to go 80mph in the left lane, while it was heavy traffic (basically bumper to bumper) on the right.

More than likely, OP wasn't checking her mirrors and paying attention to someone approaching, and thus wasn't looking for opportunities to move over. And it wasn't that heavily trafficked on the right.

MD does not have a left lane law.

In any event, it’s obviously not the “rule” that the left lane belongs to whoever speeds the fastest. The fact that this driver pulled such an unsafe maneuver passing on the shoulder shows they were the problem, not OP. [/quote]
