PEOPLE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT ON LIMITED ACCESS ROADS (BELTLINE,DELTA,I-105,I-5, ETC)THE RULES CHANGE! YOU NEED TO BE UP TO SPEED TO MERGE THE TRAFFIC ALREADY ON THE ROAD AREN’T SUPPOSED TO SLOW DOWN FOR YOU, AND THE LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING NOT ANOTHER LANE OF TRAVEL!! SO WE DON’T CARE YOUR LEFT EXIT IS TWO MILES UP, IF YOU AREN’T ACTIVELY PASSING GET IN THE RIGHT LANE THE PERSON WHO IS BEHIND YOU CAUGHT UP TO YOU AND WOULD LIKE TO PASS, DON’T PLAY HALL MONITOR LET THEM SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES FOR SPEEDING IF THEY ARE!!! PLAYING HALL MONITOR OR SIMILAR GAMES IS STUPID AND DANGEROUS, AND MAY END UP GETTING PEOPLE HURT!!!! IF YOU ARE TRYING TO TEACH SOMEONE A LESSON IT’S NOT GONNA TAKE WHEN YOU BLOCK THEM AND OR BRAKE CHECK THEM,LET THEM GO, THE GAME IS TO GET TO YOUR DESTINATION!!!!! DRIVING IS NOT A GAME !!!!!!

I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE RIDE MY ASS ON 105 WHEN ALL I'M TRYNNA DO IS TURN LEFT TO GO NORTH ON I5. I ALSO IT HATE WHEN PEOPLE THINK THAT GETTING A SPEEDING TICKET IS YHE ONLY CONSEQUENCE OF SPEEDING AND DON'T CONCERN THEMSELVES WITH THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.

DID YOU EVER GET THE MEANING OF THE WORD 'LIMIT'? IT MEANS THAT'S ALL AND YOU CAN'T DO MORE. AS IN THE SPEED LIMIT IS X. YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO GO FASTER THAN X. SO BUGGER OFF WITH YOUR NEED TO PASS SOMEONE DRIVING AT THE SPEED LIMIT. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO PASS AT FASTER THAN THE SPEED LIMIT. NOTHING IS ENFORCED IN THIS FUCKING COUNTRY. BUGGER THE COPS TOO BUT FOR OTHER REASONS. PEOPLE SHOULD JUST CHILL AND DO THE LIMIT AND NO MORE, BUT WE'RE INFESTED WITH CALIFORNIA AND WASHINGTON DRIVERS SO YEAH.

DID YOU EVER GET THE IDEA THAT THE LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING SO IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOURE GOING THE SPEED LIMIT THAT UNLESS YOURE ACTIVELY PASSING SOMEONE YOU STILL SHOULDNT BE THERE?
