    Unless you’re in California. Then the left lane is also an exit and the right side exit lane is the passing lane. But only if you’re driving more than 30mph over the limit.

    I’m not usually a fan of traffic enforcement but god does this state need it.

      Meh, it was fine on both motorcycle and by car, at least around LA. Come up to Seattle, everyone fills every lane and drives at exactly the speed limit. It’ll drive you fucking nuts.

          What about when everyone’s 5 under?

          While I’ll get to my destination in one piece, I do appreciate a little bit of excess speed, particularly on the slow gradients of the 5.

          The speed limit in LA for roads of similar design is 75mph, and outside of rush hour, those speeds seem comfortable.
