Until laws are passed requiring people to stay right except passing, you are p***ing in the wind giving advise. :S
Really? Every state in the union has a law stating "Keep right except to pass". They were enacted about the same time that it became illegal to run a red light or exceed the speed limit. Same with using your turn signals to change lanes.
The problem is that they don't teach these to new drivers anymore, so fewer people know how to drive properly on the interstates.
I've concluded that cars sold down here in Kentucky come with turn signals as optional equipment, that explains why you see so few vehicles using them, as many cars must not be equipped with that option....
Thank you for making me aware of the Law. Since you know it exists, please state the statue in Georgia law that states as such? :h
2010 Georgia Code
TITLE 40 - MOTOR VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC
CHAPTER 6 - UNIFORM RULES OF THE ROAD
ARTICLE 9 - SPEED RESTRICTIONS
§ 40-6-184 - Impeding traffic flow; minimum speed in left-hand lanes
Proposed Feb of this year…
A state trooper-turned-lawmaker in Georgia intends to make it illegal for slow drivers to dawdle in the left lane, reports the Huffington Post. His proposed bill would require drivers to move to the right if they're going below the speed limit in the passing lane and cars are behind them. It strengthens a current law on the books and makes it clear that scofflaws face a fine for a moving violation. "I always say it's the manners your momma should have taught you," state legislator Bill Hitchens tells MyFox Atlanta. "If someone pulls up behind you, you move to the right and let them by." The measure will curb accidents and road rage incidents, he adds.
Except there is little to no difference between the old law and the proposed new law…
