He’ll, we passed a law against it. But I gotta tell ya, the people at red lights that take 10 seconds to go because they are on that damn phone are more infuriating to me
Left lane drivers are one thing..

That is what your HORN is for.

I’m driving a RAV 4 at the time. Girl horn
That guy was already breaking the law, even touching his phone, behind the wheel.
I have a 1979 Cadillac CDV, my horn rivals that of an 18 wheeler. I will make them piss blood with the volume.
On the phone or just not paying attention. The light is green....GO!!!
Tik tok has killed green light efficiency in Starkville. I’m guessing it’s that way in other places as well but I notice it a lot on highway 12 in the mornings.
I drive in the left lane at night to keep from hitting deer, but I make sure I'm driving faster than the right lane and get over quickly if a speed demon is approaching behind me. I do appreciate states that make 18 wheelers use the right lane only though.
The girl at the red light probably figures you’re a girl playing on your phone too since you drive a RAV 4*****
I honk so often that some people may even call me "honky".
I also hate it when the 2nd car in line doesn't honk, so I'm stuck honking for two and everybody behind us.

Good lord where are these states? Nothing like getting behind 2 trucks doing 67 & 66 side by side in the open interstate while one performs a 3-mile pass of the other one.
These days I’m a little reluctant to use a horn in a situation like this. It doesn’t take much to provoke a nut job into getting out of his car with a gun.
I don't have a problem with left lane drivers as long as they are going the speed limit. If they go less, then it can become a problem. If you go less than the speed limit, you should be in the right lane. Heck, just let the criminally fast drivers get the ticket, plus they won't get to the same destination more than a couple minutes ahead of you anyway.
Indiana is one. Arkansas requires no truckers in the left lane if the interstate has more than two lanes in the same direction.
One of my worst experiences on the highway happened a couple years ago on I-20 when an 18 wheeler in the right lane pulled into the left lane about fifty feet in front of me as I was about to pass him. He wanted to pass the 18 wheeler in front of him. But instead of pulling to the right after passing he decided to pass all of the cars in the right which was a mix of about a dozen cars and some 18w trucks. Well, he must have been pulling a full load or he had a engine governor because his truck could barely hold the speed limit. Our left lane convoy drove from Ruston to a few miles west of Monroe before I was able to weave my way between bumpers to pass him on the left with an opening with half a car length to spare. He leaned on his horn and I could see his hand and mouth giving me some "friendly" motions. So much for professional truck drivers. What an asshat.
Saw a tire cover on Jeep earlier this week. It said “ If I passed you on the right, you’re an *******! “. Truer words have never been spoken.
If Arkansas requires that, they don't enforce it.
Fact:
when trucks do this, there is a woman passenger in the passing truck flashing the driver of the passed truck. The passed truck then pays the driver of the passing truck for additional time.
At least this is the logic I use to not be angry at the trucks involved.
You can still rudely honk a girl horn. Just lay on it for an excessive amount of time.
More than likely just dumb and overlay cautious. This is the worst on a green left turn arrow.
Even worse, the folks that won't pull out into the intersection, to ensure they get to turn once the through traffic gets the yellow light and has to stop.
I’ll say it…. White suburban moms with an oversized SUV
On I40 it's "every man for himself" no matter what state you're in.
Well, at least you're not driving a Forester.
And the outrage when you blow the horn at them is ironic, they are so offended!
True. 30 isn't much better. I occasionally have to drive Memphis to DFW and it's absolutely miserable.
I10 is the same way, I worked at Stennis for a few years, it was an hour there and an hour back. There were MANY times that I wanted to kiss the ground when I get there and home.
just fyi. Sitting in the intersection is a ticket-able offense. Not that it’s forced often. I used to do it until it was explained why you shouldn’t.
If you’re in Madison better give it a good 5 second delay because somebody is going to run about 75% of the red lights.
Is this really the same thing? I could see if if there’s a crosswalk maybe. But who are you obstructing?
Fire trucks, police chases, ambulances carrying someone’s dying meemaw. Plus it’s a hazard of some random dipshit running the red light.
On my way to West Point today to watch my Granddaughter play basketball and I meet this car on the Tombigbee river two lane bridge on highway 50 who I assume was playing on this phone. They drifted across the center line and were 50 percent in my lane. I hit the horn and the brakes and tried to make it between the oncoming car and the side railing on the bridge. It was very close on both sides but didn’t hit anything and didn’t wind up in the river. The oncoming car never made any effort to correct their position on the road and I’m not sure they were ever aware of the situation. Or didn’t care. I’ve seen a lot of stupid driving in the last few days and it’s not going to get better until the holIdays are over. Thankful that I didn’t get killed today! Everyone keep your head on a swivel and stay safe.
