Fifteen years ago, we were in the left-hand lane on US 24 in Colorado Springs when I noticed the driver in the next lane holding up a card trying to get my attention. I don’t remember exactly what it said on the card, but it basically told me I should be driving in the right-hand lane.
Now I understand why people get upset when others abuse traffic rules, including the one where slower vehicles are supposed to stay to the right.
I was driving a 25-foot motorhome towing a car, so, yes, I was going slower than some others.
However, I also had a GPS telling me that about a mile down the road I had to make a left turn to get on the freeway, and with the heavy morning traffic, I was in the left-hand lane early to make sure I didn’t miss it.
The guy made a right turn shortly after that, so I wasn’t really delaying him at all.
Just a control-freak jerk, I guess.
