It should be illegal to GET passed on the right.

#💯

Totally agree. If it's possible to pass somebody on the right, that person (the one being passed) is in the wrong lane for their speed.

I say that online and people get combative about it and throw out all sorts of insane scenarios like that changes anything. I still haven't seen one that makes sense.

It's amazing, really. Every time you see a pocket of congestion in the freeway, there's a sedan in the front of it, leisurely driving in the middle lane like they're the fucking president in their motorcade of one.

The only scenario that is okay is if they're stuck behind a slower person in front of them and both get passed (assuming they would be going faster than the traffic in the right lane if they guy they're stuck behind wasn't there). It's the guy at the front of the line who is the problem there.
