Is there some sort of weird law in your state that mandates that you drive five miles an hour under the speed limit in the left-hand lane of a highway and twenty-five miles an hour over the speed limit in the right-hand lane of a highway?
Or are all you just a pack of drooling, uncaring, mannerless idiots who drive cars because balancing on bicycles is beyond your meager abilities?

Oh, it's not just NJ. Wyoming, South Dakota, and Kansas are *filled* with mouth-breathing cretins and they're increasingly coming to Colorado, where it's actually illegal to drive slowly in the left lane but unfortunately nobody ever gets stopped for it.
Which, I admit, makes me one of the way-too-fast-in-the-right-lane people, when I'm not on a bike.
For someone who learned about highway driving on Germany's Autobahn's, the "left lane antics" I gotta deal with twice a day on the Long Island Expressway are infuriating.
I read a court case in OH where clown was cited and convicted for obstructing traffic. He appealed it, explaining that he had been driving at the speed limit, so how could he have been blocking traffic.
The court told him that it wasn't his job to enforce traffic laws and upheld the conviction.
Sad to see NJ drivers have declined. When I got my license in NJ many years ago, it was standard practice for traffic in each lane on the Garden State Parkway to see if they could go faster than the others until you slammed on the brakes for the tollbooths. And God help you if you missed with your quarter.
