Maybe in your little world you're the only one on the road, but very rarely do I check my mirror and see nobody back there. I hate left lane campers so why woud I do it to anybody else? I bet every lane clogger out there thinks they're driving "fast enough". If the road is wide open I see your point, bit then I'm probably not passing anyone either.

Agree on JoJo's age and ego playing into his poor driving skills. :-)

People, we ride motrocycles. No need to worry about people sitting in the left lane when all we need to do is this...

For those that don't know what 696 looks like in Michigan. I refered to how it's below ground level. Here's what I mean... I was there Thursday...




On my way to Troy to pickup some used tires for my lease turn in... then to the hood for mounting...

What up Mound & Nevada which is just north of davidson... yeah it was um....

I thought about this thread today. I was headed down I-16 between Macon and Savannah in Georgia. I was rolling 95-100mph being followed probably no longer than 1.5 car lengths and we rolled like that for about 20-30 miles AND passing cops. Of course below Atlanta I sat in 15 miles of bumper to bumper traffic (on a Sunday afternoon) because some dumbass decided to cause a big fucking wreck and oh yeah had a Michigan tag on what was once a large SUV that is now legally allowed to park in "Compact Car Parking". Fucking amateurs.

But rolling 95-100mph for 20miles and passing GSP doing radar is nothing but win!!!

i hate mfrs that creep in the left lane.. they put up signs FINALLY in michigan: THE LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING, STAY RIGHT UNLESS YOU ARE PASSING. I have seen those signs in the South for years.. and people seem to follow it a little better outside of Michigan..
