In another thread I mentioned how I do 50mph in a 55, RIGHT HAND LANE on interstates and parkways. I rarely ever have to pass anyone else, and most on-rampers can merge in front of me without fearing for their lives.

Post road through Norwalk and Fairfield: 30mph in 35 zones, RIGHT HAND LANE. By the time I arrive at controlled intersections, the red light has turned green. I do get red lights, maybe 1 out of every three.

Many drivers who try to pass me on the four-laner end up stuck in the left lane behind someone waiting to turn left, as I roll leisurely by in the rightmost lane.

Things to ponder…
