Law Confirmed my justification

[spqrzilla]

A couple of weeks ago, a clown in a lifted Ford F150 decided that I wasn't going fast enough for him in the fast lane of I70. (I was keeping up with the cars ahead) And that he was entitled to run up my bumper and try to intimidate me out of the fast lane. After moving aside a mile or two down, I let him pass me, and then returned to the fast lane and flicked my high beams at him from behind.

He decided that he wanted to screw with me, slammed on his brakes from in front of me, dropped to 25 mph in the fast lane and started jinking like he wanted to come after me. then came to a complete stop and started to open his driver door - in the fast lane of I70.

I had my .45 in my lap by then and was just about to put my initials in his tail gate in .45 inch holes when he somehow got an IQ improvement and drove off.

He got awful close.

There are some real loons out there.

There is no "Fast Lane" the speed limit applies to all lanes of traffic. There is also a "Keep right except to pass Law in Colorado.

None of which has anything to do with my comment.

And you are also legally obligated to keep up with the flow of traffic within reason, even if that means exceeding the speed limit to a certain degree.

If the speed limit is 55, everyone is going 65, you can be found as a road hazard.

Laws are tricky.

I know a buddy of mine who got pulled for speeding; his defense was he was keeping up with traffic. Judge said it's not a law to keep up with traffic and fined him.

two words: MOVE OVER!!

That is why I said laws are "tricky." Your buddy got a ticket for keeping up with traffic, another P.O. having a bad day might cite you for being a road hazard.

They have a bit of "interpretive creativity" in these scenarios.
