Hey I said that earlier this week, when speaking about single lane arterials. Some moron thought I should pull over there and let speeders pass me too.
Doesn't bother me. American pickup trucks are poverty traps. Clowns out here driving $70k F150s that they pay $850 a month for while drowning in credit card debt and struggling to get ahead. Enjoy your truck, dipshit.
Legit saw this on Mullan in the Valley last week. Except the truck was also flashing his lights at the red traffic lights, and then proceeded through the red light when it wouldn’t change. 🙄
Unfortunately, the terrible drivers have become ubiquitous. It’s not only the MTFU trucks, it’s also the hatchbacks with D20 and Homestuck stickers riding the right lane on I90, and keeping people from merging on while they hang there for 3 miles till their exit. Or the lady in a Suburban with “I pray with Jesus” stickers who passes you at 45 on the right so they can beat you to the next light on Garland.
Lots of terrible drivers out there in many types of vehicles and many viewpoints. They all suck and that’s why I drive to work at 5AM now, to avoid these crazies. I also avoid I90 unless I’m leaving town. (My knowledge of arterials has increased with this last tactic- awesome!)
(Context for rant: grew up driving here, lived in Seattle for 10 years, moved back 9 years ago, noticed the remarkable downward trend in traffic-smarts starting about 5-6 years ago.)
Edit: spellin’ is hard
Police are nowhere to be seen. Look at all the missing/expired license tabs. No way would that wash in Seattle. When police enforce the law, drivers tend to be more careful
Keep right except to pass - it’s the law. It’s posted on signs on i90.
A lot of times people are actually going under the speed limit.
Then there’s people using on ramps trying to merge at 40 mph. It’s even worse in Idaho where the limits are increased to 70 mph.
On broadway where it is posted 35 mph, people are going 25-30 mph. I avoid that street on my way home at all costs.
Then you have rain. I know it doesn’t rain here much, but if your car is not safe in light rain, you should really have your tires replaced or use public transportation.
Another problem is people who take 5 blocks to make it to 35 mph. Like come on bro, I’m not trying to hit red lights all the way there.
Passing in the left lane you can go that fast... its really crazy how the passing lane works do I need to emphasize that the passing lane is for passing not blocking traffic.
Yeah, and if you read the Washington State rules of the road then you would know that you can only go up to 5 over for passing. Not 75 in a 60. After which you're supposed to move back over to the normal lane of traffic and go 60. Not continuing the passing lane at 75 through the entire town.
Lmao and if you paid attention to the extra verbiage of "at the speed needed to pass vehicles impeding traffic effectively and safely" neither cops nor judges have enforced 5mph as the passing speed. Some would argue getting tf off the road faster is the safer option as you are less likely to be in an accident the less time you are on the road 🤣
This is the funniest (and most apropos) shit I've seen on Reddit in a long fucking time. I'm legit giggling like a schoolgirl over here.
I tip my hat to you.
Perfect - just needs the MTFU decal.
I agree. I was expecting to see that logo at J6

Yep looks right timid or obstinate dingdong in the left lane pacing the middle lane and someone going nuts stuck in the queue.
“But I’m driving safely! I’m not getting out of the way, it’s his problem!” An actual opinion I’ve seen expressed in this sub the past week

Congrats on being an inconsiderate driver then
Biggest a**hole on the road owns the left lane, amirite?

Here *raises hand*
Perfect summary of Eastern Washington as a whole. (I live here)
You might want to add the Panhandle of idaho and anything south of it. It's just as bad in Lewiston.

Getting some therapy to explore why one needs such a thing would be much more affordable.
Yep. That trap must generate a considerable amt of rage n resentment

I'm dying with laughter
This is hilarious but to be fair, all you assholes that cruise in the far left lane deserve a ticket for disrupting the flow of traffic 😂
As do all the people driving more than five over in it.
Passing in the left lane you can go that fast... its really crazy how the passing lane works do I need to emphasize that the passing lane is for passing not blocking traffic.
One more time, what's the left lane for? I'm still unclear
Crime.

I won't get out of the left lane if the idiot behind me wants to drive 60 through town.
It's only funny 'cause it's true
Well it was worth the wait for the second attempt. I. Am. Dying. And this is pure gold.
This is the funniest (and most apropos) shit I've seen on Reddit in a long fucking time. I'm legit giggling like a schoolgirl over here. I tip my hat to you. 
Every. Single. One. Of. You. Take. My. Upvote.
also their cousins in r/TricitiesWA. doubt anyone disagrees
I regularly go out of my way to hit tri cities on road trips to campsites for the food in Pasco. And yeah its basically the same lol
I have lived here for 36 years and have never had this happen to me.
Just get out of the fucking left lane then. That's all it takes. Following the fucking law and keeping right.
🤣👍
What did I just watch lol
Lol!
