Happy New Year to Bare, db, all those in this thread, and everybody in ToTV.

My last New Years resolution is to bow out of this thread. But unlike many of my other ones, this resolution I'm going to keep!!

You are absolutely correct!

And it is exactly the attitude and actions of the poster you quoted...that causes the majority of problems.

Drive on the right. Overtake on the left, and when safely past slower vehicle, move back over to the right. All manoeuvres with appropriate signals. SIMPLE!

No I am not, ask any law enforcement officer, preferably a motor cycle traffic officer and they will set your straight.

Sorry, you are wrong. There is no astrick on a speed limit sign that refers you to an exception for exceeding the speed limit.

I think one of my New Year's goals will be to start a thread topic that will make this many people angry.

Even better, we should have a contest.

Sorry, but it is you who is dead wrong.

The law (and signs) say "keep right except to pass" and "Slower traffic keep right."

If you were correct, why don't you see an asterisk that says...."except those doing the speed limit" on them?

Not only are you wrong, but because of others with your opinion (who like the feeling of power of having traffic back up behind them)...they are contributing to road rage.

Is it really worth it?
