i am soooo sick and tired of slow cars, 18 wheelers, vans, SUVs, buses etc stuck in the left lane and moving along with traffic soooo slow!

Default I've noticed that in Chicago and Detroit too

Nobody wants to be in the right lane, so the people who want to go fast have gravitated there.

Default Just drive like this guy, it's the fastest way.

I'm sure some have seen this vid before, but it's the best representation I've seen of freeway life :P

Default "now a days"...since when was the left lane for anything other than blocking traffic?

That's just the mentality people have in this country...and the police reinforce it by ticketing the speeders, and leaving the rolling road blocks alone.
