I'll be in the fast lane, the car in front of me will eventually pull over after I shoot the flare gun at it, then I pass. (Disclaimer: I don't do this in my bus. Only my normal car which can go over 60MPH... <g>) Well as SOON as I pass, the person gets right back in the left lane!!! WHY? There is no one in front of them in the middle lane! I guess they THINK they are going to get where they are going if they stay in the fast lane. Insane is what it is!
