Just to frustrate the tailgater.[/quote]

I had a real "I have become my mother" moment the first time my husband did this and I told him he was going to get us killed in a road rage encounter.  My parents had this discussion on many a road trip in my youth.[/quote]

Yes, if you are in the wrong (lingering in the left lane), just fix the problem, don’t make it worse.

Move over before you get someone killed.

Why do you think tailgating only happens in the left lane?  Is this some suburban derangement where literally every time you leave your house you have to go on a multi-lane highway?[/quote]

Deflection.

Move over if you are driving in the left lane.

This isn’t that deep.

Agree.

The left lane is a passing lane, not a cruising lane. People are supposed to treat it like they would if they were on a single lane road. Only get over to pass, and then move back into right lane. It also means accelerating enough to pass the car on the right - so don't take 15 miles to pass the car on the right.

This is also a deflection. Two wrongs don't make a right. Don't tailgate. If you're really passionate about policing the left lane, become a cop.[/quote]

Just follow the rules of the road. No one said tailgating is right. But, neither is cruising in the left lane. Don't be that a$$hole that thinks they are "entitled" to cruising in the wrong lane. [/quote]

Yes, follow the rules of the road. Don’t be that @sshole that tailgates.[/quote]

One comes before the other, you know. [/quote]

I don’t misuse the left lane but when I see someone who is doing that, I don’t really care because I am never in a mad rush to pass every car I can. I also don’t tailgate but when I see someone tailgating another car, I definitely care. I think to myself, “that angry impatient a$$hole is making the road more dangerous for everyone.” The tailgater is the much bigger assh0le. You can only control your own actions. [/quote]

The person camping in the left lane is the a$$hole for not following the rules. [/quote]

next time you are self righteously tailgating someone, i hope you hear a voice in your head saying “a lot of people think i’m the assho1e”[/quote]

and just as many think you are.[/quote]

they are both assh0les. the tailgater is worse though[/quote]

No, the person creating the dangerous situation (sitting in the left lane) is the a-hole here.
