Passing Lane Syndrome

[burlyviper]

After another trip to the UP, it never ceases to amaze me when someone drives 5 mph below the posted limit UNTIL they reach the passing lane zone and then immediately speed up 10 MPH. Only to slow right back down once the passing lane ends. I chalk it up as an opportunity to practice patience and enjoy the UP scenery. (To clarify, this syndrome applies when roads are totally clear.). Has anyone else noticed this?

It's horrible up here in the UP that way. People think that the speed limit increases when there are more lanes....just stupid.

The speed limit for a snowmobile is all you can do plus 1 mile per hour.

That’s why I got the 6.2 in my last truck. When I get to a passing lane I pass the slow cars fast and go back to my cruise speed. There are way too many bad drivers anymore.

It's like a challenge to some people, seriously they live to mess with people today. Then there are those that pull in the left lane and drive, not pass. What part of the sign that says pass left only did you not understand. Some have serious problems with English language comprehension!
