Fast Lane


I pretty much always drive in the fast lane because I’m pretty much always driving the fastest. When I’m not driving the fastest, I move over to a slower lane. I’m confused why so many don’t understand fast lanes. Maybe we need to be more specific and call it the “only drive in this lane if no one is behind you and if you’re going faster than (not the same speed as) the cars to your right lane.”

Unfortunately, some people confuse it with the “I’m driving the speed limit so it’s fast enough for any lane lane.” Hopefully you’re not one of these people but if you are, this lane does not exist and if it did, it would be the most right lane.

And to other worthy fast laners, if a car comes up behind you in the fast lane, move over. Don’t waste your time getting angry about how fast they’re driving. Thank them as they drive by. You now have a cop blocker and therefore permission to drive a little faster if you so desire.

Next week’s lesson: The carpool lane ain’t the casual “nobody can come into my lane lane” like you’d hoped.
