Again:

It seems as though somebody on this forum should know the foolishness of cursing and threatening someone without knowing who or what they are threatening. The comments Byte made are a real concern for anybody with firearms or a carry permit.

Additionally, making judgments about one's ability or experience based on chatter in an on-line forum seams pretty stupid!

and yes, and if I Had a medical emergency and you were blocking my access to a hospital/emergency care I would use deadly force,

what of it.

And you wouldn't be justified...

It's always "stay right except to pass" but threatening someone over it is a real concern.

pitting a vehicle isn't exactly a threat... ask any PD. it is a means to disable or move a vehicle. I wasn't the one that brought up firearms, that would have been MED.


I Just get the jaws about these self important transplants that think its OK to do what they see as right and there are no other options.

and as far as justified, I'll do time to save my father dying of a heart attack because some jack hole wont clear traffic.

My Driving skills? you don't know what you don't know... so don't assume.

Oh, STFU! I agree with Byte, too. There's a word for driver's who drive in the left lane and intentionally don't move over for faster traffic. It starts with "c" and ends with "sucker". And if you do that, you are that.

You are not the self-appointed "left lane police".
You are not more important than anyone else.
You're breaking the law the same as someone who wants to exceed the speed limit so you're no better than they are. Stop trying to rationalize why you are.
You're also a moron if you can't read and heed traffic control devices that say:
KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS
SLOWER TRAFFIC USE RIGHT LANEBut, don't worry...you're not alone.
Stop making excuses for being what you are.

Q: How fucking hard is it to check your right side mirror, flip your turn signal up, and steer your vehicle one lane to the right, wait for faster traffic to pass, then do the opposite to move back into the left lane?
A: Not very fucking hard but it's obviously got you, and those other c***suckers like you, very baffled.

Every time you see my truck in your mirror while you're being a left-lane c***sucker, think to yourself, "I'm just a c***sucker!"

I will be. And so will others. Self-righteous f**k.

I just drove across country pulling a trailer with my Jetta. I went 68 mph (2500 RPM for best torque) all the way. I passed people then got over to the right lane so people who wanted to go faster then me could pass me. It did not hurt my feelings when someone wanted to go 80. And a few passed me going at least 90. Eh, their gas money. Hell I got passed 3 times in one state by a F250 pulling a trailer, I think he had to keep stopping to fill up.

the ones that really roast my ass are the ones that ride the middle lane at 60mph in a 75, traffic passing them on both sides, as they try to talk on the phone and drive at the same time...

There are several individuals who missed the whole point of the post.

I have no intention of being the left lane police nor do I drive in the left lane unless the right lane is full of cars driving slow all of which I have no desire to drive behind, and yes a person is perfectly within their right to pass the slower traffic especially if they are traveling the speed limit. I have driven ridiculously fast on many occasions except that I have the common sense to do so when the only person killed if something goes wrong is me.

However, to the point of the post and given the traffic in the metro area, the left lane is generally full of cars going slightly faster then the right lane, and those cars in the left lane have every right to pass those in the right. About 95% of the drivers are fine driving with traffic. However, there are a few jerks who feel it necessary to flash their lights and tailgate to get a better place in line. I find it ironic that these individuals end up stuck in traffic right in front of me.

To the transplant comment. I have three generations of my family currently living in Colorado (the fourth generation are all dead); 20 years ago we never put up with the crap we are putting up with now.

Incidentally, the more humorous story I heard lately was from a friend in the Jeffco Sheriff’s department. One of these rude assholes of which I speak pulled this with him in his unmarked vehicle so he pulled over and when the guy stormed by cutting him off, he got a nice little surprise when the lights went on and a big fine with the speeding and careless driving ticket.

NOWHERE in my post did I justify the guy just cruising in the left lane.

True, nor do I care unless I am being run over by somebody like Byte and apparently you.

You are not more important than anyone else.
It seems as though the person forcing their way through traffic and running people off the road is the one full of self-importance.

You're breaking the law the same as someone who wants to exceed the speed limit so you're no better than they are.
I am not breaking the law if I am passing slower traffic when some jerk is riding my ass.
KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS
SLOWER TRAFFIC USE RIGHT LANEThe key words are except to pass so don't tailgate me when I am legally passing slower traffic!


Self-righteous f**k.
Back at you Pal

This guy is NUTS!!! ...he is hurt so he is going to kill me to get me out of his way because I am passing people slower then he wants to go! Seriously????

Perhaps he should call 911; it is a fairly simple number to remember!

well you said its OK to deny people life saving medical attention!

see, isn't it wonderful when people exaggerate and put words in your mouth?

what I Said is "and yes, and if I Had a medical emergency and you were blocking my access to a hospital/emergency care I would use deadly force,

what of it."

meaning if you were between me and the hospital doors denying me entrance, you might get more than you bargained for.



and as far as your 911 statement, you sir, are a Hypocrite.
Turn in your sidearm AND your permit and put 911 on speed dial.... or are you somehow more important than I am... your life is worth more than anyone else?

I drove my father to the Hospital rather than dial 911 for the same reason you carry.

:D You have a great day and God Bless your soul :D

I also got side swipped by a chick in a tahoe the other day. talking on her phone and smoking a cigarette while trying to maneuver 2 round-a-bouts. she came close the on the first one, then if I hadn't watched her close and slammed the brakes she would have wiped out my drivers side. I honked and all I got was a simple half assed wave...didn't want to interrupt her phone call apparently.

If I wasn't in my new truck I would have let her hit me in my 97. I need a new driver door anyways. a new front bumper would be nice too.

The context of this discussion is passing slow traffic so the only context to interpret your comment is based on my traveling slower then you want to go. Unless you changed the context of this discussion, one can only see your comment as a person willing to use deadly force on slower motorists. Nowhere in this discussion thread was anybody anywhere near a hospital blocking doors....what and where did that come from????

However, nice try at covering up your comments.

Ambulance = EMT and unrestricted access to the roads.
My Vehicle = No EMT and restricted access to the roads.

Perhaps a call in route to the hospital might be a good idea.

Yes, I carry and I have little confidence in it saving me from a heart attack!

Your the troll!

The one who labeled me and I quote ...."self-important fuck like you"

and then threatened with...

"keep yakking on your phone, feeling important. when I pit your ass into the ditch for obstructing traffic, call a cop."

Why has this "pet peeves" turned into a "road rules war" ?????? I need to go back and see where this went astray. When I looked this morning we were at the Wal mart entrance that made me thing of one of mine.

Just got back today from camping and fishing all weekend and I see that Byte is back, threads just got better!
Be careful Med, I didn't word what I was trying to say one time and Byte took offense and wrote "go fuck yourself" to me. So unless you want the wrath of Byte, be very care full typing what you are trying to say.
