max power Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Nice sentiment but, even if it passes, it will never be enforced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jst2fst Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Nice sentiment but, even if it passes, it will never be enforced.Agree I like it ive been cut off by slow drivers that merge into the left lane and just cruise. Pisses me the fuck off so I just overtake on the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhaag Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 they should fix drivers ed instead of passing another waste-of-time law. next they'll have to triple the size of the police force to enforce it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I prefer the "eye for an eye" method...When travelling down the freeway, i like to pass slow people on the right side, then slow down in front of them until they get frustrated and try to pass on the right, thats when i stomp the throttle, and leave them in the correct lane.

Bad324 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 It should be named the Russo bill. bahahahahahaha AgreedI usually just be an asshole and pass on the right then immediately merge back over in the lane as close as I possibly can to the slow ass blocking my way. Someone once referred to this as the "Ohio Pass"there is nothing I hate more than some inconsiderate fucktard in my way in the "fast" lane that doesn't know how to use their mirrors or how to accurately judge the rate of speed in which another vehicle is approaching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 they should fix drivers ed instead of passing another waste-of-time law. next they'll have to triple the size of the police force to enforce it...:plus1: I agree!If everybody wasn't so self-centered, and had a LITTLE consideration for their fellow motorists to begin with, this kind of legislation wouldn't even need to be considered. I think I read something several years ago about there already being a law about impeding the flow of traffic, which I would think could be used right now. Even if it would pass, I don't see many tickets being written for it, since people already panic and get out of the way when a LEO comes into sight.

jporter12 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 how to accurately judge the rate of speed in which another vehicle is approachingAccuracy is not necessary, just somewhere in the same ball park would do. We just have too many people not paying attention, having NO consideration for the other motorists on the road around them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsin Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 This should create some fun moments on my route to work if it passes. The whole time I'm on the interstate I use the high speed lane, but if I see I'm going to be holding up another vehicle I get over as soon as I can. Usually though I'm passing cars that act like the speed limit is 10 MPH under whats posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rctaylor Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I support both installments, speed limit increase and left lane passing.Just noticed the sponsor is a family friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 personally i'll travel in either lane, but if i see some maniac climbing up my back door, i'll happily get the hell out of their way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluebird Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 i drive a honda fit and i never leave the right hand lane for a reason, so this does not apply to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 http://www.mit.edu/~jfc/right.htmlimo, bicycles should have nothing to do with this, limited access freeways are off limits to bicycles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Cleaver got to see some fat bitch in the left lane put me.over the edge in the way home Sunday. Lack of sleep probably had something to do with me honking and giving her the finger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Won't be enforced just like it isn't in PA.maybe I just got lucky on the turnpike going to Pittsburgh last year but me riding some dudes ass doing 3mph over in the left lane got him pulled over. Cop u turned in behind me and I thought I was getting pulled over but when i moved over and slowed he went for the jackass blocking my way At the time I was unaware of the law and was confused out of my mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe their law allows you 3 mins to pass each vehicle or something like that. I hate people doing the same speed in any two lanes side by side forever.

palandor Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Agree I like it ive been cut off by slow drivers that merge into the left lane and just cruise. Pisses me the fuck off so I just overtake on the right.There's a guy driving a silver sedan that I occasionally see while driving home from work on one particular stretch of road. He's got his mom (maybe wife) in the car with him and whenever I encounter his car, he is usually passing (or attempting to pass) traffic left (yes, left) of center on a particular stretch of city road on the way home.Dude scares me and I'm tempted to call it in to the local PD, but not sure if they'd just write it off as "we didn't see it, can't do anything about it", or "not worth our time", or if they'd bust a nut getting to him if I (safely) followed him. Doesn't seem to be drunk driving, just very very aggressive and dangerous when in rush-hour traffic.So yea, I wonder if he doesn't like left-laners either.

swingset Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 It's embarrassing to be known as a state full of left-lane retards. Ohio absolutely carries the reputation. Last year out west visiting my mom we were having a big cookout, and all the folks there were talking about how fucking awful Ohio drivers are. All I could do is agree and say I'm only a transplant. It's true tho, the interstate system confuses mouthbreathers in this state something fierce.Don't get me started on "afraid to merge" dipshits coming to a fucking stop.
