Some legislators must have read the stats on what causes accidents?
Since moving to Florida I always wondered why people would park themselves in the left lanes of the Florida TPK, I75 etc. going at or below the speed limit oblivious to the long line behind them or everyone trying to dangerously pass them in the right lane. They do not pass on the left and move over to the right. Having driven most of my life on the NJ TPK, RT 287, Garden State Pkwy, Belt Pkwy, etc. during business work days we would zip by at 75 or 80 on the left and move to the right to let others go by - it was understood. OK I feel better now for sharing.
