Hey, im not saying that i stay on the left lane
but
if a person on the left lane is going 90km/h at a 90km/h speed limit area, why does he still need to keep right?

because there is always someone that needs to go faster than the limit

but it will prevent other people from breaking the law.
is there any good reason for the person to move over?

Left lane is the passing lane. If your not passing, stay on the right.

doesnt the passing only effects on Hwy driving? for city, there really is no passing lane...

so if you get pulled over for speeding in the city, what are you gona say to the cop,

cop - you know why your stopped
driver - i was in the passing lane!


im not saying that this shouldnt be applied for city drivin, but more of a question.

It's not breaking the law if there are two lanes your direction and you're doing the speed limit in the left lane.

But it's breaking "the code" you're just an ass for doing it.

ya but no one in this city follows the "unwritten rule" to keep right unless to pass. in the states is another story, ever notice driving down to say bellis fair or seattle no one is in the left lane. They seem to have proper driving edicate when it comes to that anyways.

It is not an unwritten rule...havn't you seen the signs? There are much more signs in the US but they still have them here.
KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS
SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT
OP is an idiot.
Driving in the US is way better. They move out of the way almost immediately before you get to them.
This doesn't really apply to city driving, only highway.

i know its for passing but if the person on the left is going at 90km/h technically hes using the lane to constantly pass everyone on the right lane because thats the fastest legal speed one can go. and no one else should pass that car because it would be illeagal to do so(going over 90). yes i know its illegal to stay left in the first place.

But the only thing you're going to do is for the person that wants to pass change to the right lane and pass you anyways. You will be passed but you might piss off the wrong person....

dude.. just stop... if the guy wants to speed, move over and let him. if he gets pulled over by a cop for speeding, drive slowly and just point and laugh.. theres no point getting all worked up over this..

i usualy drive speed limit.. if im on the left lane, and see someong ripping down, i move over... i dont see any harm... do you really want an accident coz your being a dick?

The signs on the highways say: "Slower traffc keep right"
Since the word "slower" is a comparative adjective, move your ass over if you are slower compared to the drivers behind you.

I see the signs that state "slower traffic keep right" or "keep right except to pass" but does anyone know if that is law or not? Can you legally get a ticket for doing the speed limit in left lane?

I agree with above posts though, stay in right lane unless you are passing or traffic is congested.

Morning's are usually fine on the hwy as it's usually people who take it daily and understand "the rules".

But I find myself getting frustrated too easily when i'm hwy driving at other times and the amount of dumb people out there.

I don't mind you going slow in the fast lane so long as you're going faster than the right lane and change lanes when you get a chance to let me by... But when you just stay there, gah.

These COULD apply, but it doesn't mean a ticket...


Slow driving

145 (1) A person must not drive a motor vehicle at so slow a speed as to impede or block the normal and reasonable movement of traffic, except when reduced speed is necessary for safe operation or in compliance with law.

(2) If the driver of a motor vehicle is driving at so slow a speed as to impede or block the normal and reasonable movement of traffic, a peace officer may require the driver to increase his or her speed, or to remove the motor vehicle from the roadway to the nearest suitable place and to refrain from causing or allowing the motor vehicle to move from that place until directed to do so by a peace officer.



Driver on right

150
(2) The driver of a vehicle proceeding at less than normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing must drive the vehicle in the right hand lane then available for traffic, or as closely as practicable to the right hand curb or edge of the roadway, except when overtaking and passing a vehicle proceeding in the same direction, or when preparing for a left hand turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway.

"145 (1) A person must not drive a motor vehicle at so slow a speed as to impede or block the normal and reasonable movement of traffic, except when reduced speed is necessary for safe operation or in compliance with law."

which means that if he chooses to go 90km/h in a 90km/h zone, he's allowed to do so in order to comply with the law, even if everyone else is going faster.

in the situation i have given, many people replies are basically saying, the person should go back in the right lane because its the law and just let the other person speed even though its breaking the law.
yea i agree on the part that its a jerk move if the person is doing it purposely.

For myself, if there is a flow of traffic i just follow it and i dont really care about right/left lanes b/c seriously 90% of the time there is no keep right in vancouver... everyone is on both lanes anyway. now if the left lane is clear and a few cars on the right lane within sight, i usually just stay on left lane until someone comes close up behind, then ill move to right.

JiggaZed
09-21-2010, 01:38 AM
If the reason one is driving in the left lane at the speed limit is to prevent others from over-speeding, then I believe that it is wrong. You are not a cop and it is not your job to enforce the law. Leave that to the "professionals".

samkyupsal
09-21-2010, 01:50 AM
A little more clear

A person is staying on the left lane for his comfort at the maximum speed limit and knew that it was illegal to do so, why should he move over for the person behind him that also wants to break the law?
Given the situation, the outcome is one of them is going to break the law anways
so then, isnt it tolerable that the person does not move to right lane? eitherway. the concluston is that one of them will be breaking the law
Therefore, if one is doing the maximum speed limit, might as well stay in the left lane?

Are people that want to speed have priority in breaking tha law?

That is the most fucked up logic I've heard in a while.

Assuming the car behind hasn't already passed the person driving the maximum posted speed limit on the left lane, it's just pure etiquette and manners to not be blocking/holding up traffic in the left lane.

No, there is no "priority" list of laws to break, but at least when somebody speeds, they're not pissing anybody off (assuming they're not constantly cutting people off) Whereas if somebody is in a rush, or itching to get somewhere and you decide to match the speed of the driver in the right lane, prepare to be tailgated like no tomorrow.

It's like asking "hey, can I not let that guy merge onto the highway?" Yes, you can, because its the traffic thats coming in who has to "Yield". But it's just common etiquette.

Like Luda says, laws aside, 10-20 over the limit is not a big deal. Safety-wise, what's a bigger deal if you hold up traffic and bunch everybody together because you want to be a hero when they could be spaced apart and everybody has buffer room in case shit happens.

Stop thinking in terms of black and white.

I was reading up on this a while back and thought I found a link somewhere on the BCMOT or ICBC site for this.

Inside the Lower Mainland, the signs read "Slower Traffic Keep Right", while outside, most highways read "Keep Right except to pass".

I forget the exact words but my understanding is that in the GVRD they actually don't want people sticking to the R of the highway as the L lane now sits empty as opposed to holding more cars.

With that said though, I personally keep R unless I'm entering a merge point (with a ton of cars trying to get onto the highway) or it's rush hour, in which case every lane is open season.

The OP makes a good point as much as we may not like his views.
Technically, if the speed limit is so and so then there's really no need to pull over because he is driving the maximum allowed speed.
Everyone else behind him who wants him to go into the right lane will be speeding.
But seriously, nobody obeys the speed laws so people get super pissed

does not matter if others will be breaking law or not (thats their business), its courtesy to move out of the way. Unless you have no where to go due to high volume traffic, you should move out of the way and avoid confrontation

Yes people will speed and moving over is considered the right thing to do but the root of the problem is speeders. Careless drivers usually late for work or just impatient. These are the kind of drivers that give driving a bad name and are a big reason why accidents happen.

09-21-2010, 03:29 PM
Wow, I thought I would have run out of fails by now..

Ok OP, here is the answer you're looking for:
If you were being completely legalistic, then, since the fastest you're allowed to drive is the speed limit, going 50 in the left lane would be no problem. No law will explicitly tell you to break the speed limit, not even the 'slower traffic keep right' laws.

Now, if you weren't young, naive and legalistic, you would know that your original post is simply retarded because that isn't the way the world works, and you would be causing more problems by driving the limit in the left lane.

Sorry if I repeated anyone here, I didn't read all of the responses. I can only read so much stupid in one day, and between this thread, the rave thread and the 300zx thread, I think my brain has already turned to mush.

Heres how it is, You are always considered slower traffic unless if you are passing. However this does not apply to rush hour. In the city both lanes are travel lanes. The left lane is used if you plan to turn left eventually and the right for if you will be turning right eventually.

you know what's equally annoying?

people who take the open lane (any open lane) and DON'T SPEED UP. i can understand being in city traffic and not always being able to keep right. but for god's sake, if you take an open lane SPEED THE FUCK UP. i HATE IT when people take the open lane simply because "i don't want to be behind someone". :swear:

I have never been on a road highway or city, right or left lane that drivers were doing exactly posted limits. EVER. so STAY to the RIGHT

158 (1) The driver of a vehicle must not cause or permit the vehicle to overtake and pass on the right of another vehicle, except

(a) when the vehicle overtaken is making a left turn or its driver has signalled his or her intention to make a left turn,

(b) when on a laned roadway there is one or more than one unobstructed lane on the side of the roadway on which the driver is permitted to drive, or

(c) on a one way street or a highway on which traffic is restricted to one direction of movement, where the roadway is free from obstructions and is of sufficient width for 2 or more lanes of moving vehicles.

Guess that's just what I've always been taught/practiced if possible, since it's safer to pass on the left.

In the states isn't it illegal to pass on the right? I know i've "heard" that a few times. Even watched a gumball vid where a guy was passing a semi on the right and the semi swerved to hit him and the cop said it's his fault cuz he was passing on the right?

Mind you, he could have been passing on the shoulder for all I know. Those Gumball kids to that from time to time.

I have never been on a road highway or city, right or left lane that drivers were doing exactly posted limits. EVER. so STAY to the RIGHT

i have no clue as to WTF you are saying.. my head hurt just trying to read it...

the intention of the left laner is not to block other drivers but to just be at his comfort.
say if the right lane is going 80km/h and the limit is 90Km/h and the left laner only feels safe only up to a speed of 90km/h and wnats to be at the speed and it can only be accomplished in the left lane.
Why should lawbreaker move for lawbreaker?
u guys say speeders dont piss off people? what abotu the popo. im sure they would be more pissed at speeders then left laners. from what ive seen on hwy 1, popos dont even care for left laners.
what abotu the people in the hov lane wanting to change lanes but cant cuz of speeders!
:troll:
and i know its gonna lead to no where
but when have u guys ever experienced a true 100% everyone keep right situation on hwy 1? never. EVER.

irrelavent
anotehr annoying thing is when some people change to a right clear lane at the red light of an intersection. and i just happen to be the 2nd car wanting to make a right turn.

Okay, then be in the right lane...go 90km/h, once u reach a car or a group of cars, switch into the left lane, pass this car/group of cars, once you have done so, move into the right lane. If the group in the right lane that you are passing is a large group, switch into the left lane, however, when you see another vehicle closing in on you in your rearview mirror (which you are checking frequently), you turn your right turn signal, and simply switch back into the right lane until this vehicle has driven by, at which point you may now switch back into the right lane and continue passing the vehicles that are in the right lane which are travelling at 80km/h. Is that really that difficult to understand?

You can't wait 15 seconds to make your right turn?...

so in the case of left laner one has to do alll that for the courtesy of others, while in the red light one can just stfu and wait.

fucking OP is so stupid.... its not all about being faster....

there are drivers out there that drive the speed limit or faster but still drive like shit.... brake hard, inconsistent braking, braking for fucking no reason at all(this one pisses me off the most), gas too late, gas waaay too late, gas while braking (seriously there was one...), brake pumping 100x per stop etc

obviously you know you should be moving over.... move the fuck over....




there is also a flip side to this issue...

impatient motherfuckers that tailgate right away. traffic in front, cant move any faster, cant move to the right lane since theres a buncha turtles, bus, cyclist etc... get tailgated up the ass regardless... that's a fucking piss off too.

there are a lot worse things to complain about that having to sit and wait to turn right... or letting people speed past you on the road...

like people WHO DO NOT shoulder check OR signal and change lanes...
like people who runs yellow lights, let alone red lights....
and so on...

what really grinds my gears

are the people who don't know how to merge... they think its a fucking yield so they're stopped trying to merge into hwy 1 from 0km/h merging into roughly 100km/h traffic

same with those hwy merge lanes with the red light/green light that stay on long enough for 1 car to pass from each lane (left,right,left,right) people are clueless

Well, it is a yeild but some people are so fucking passive and scared that it fucks up the flow.

Perfect example was last night around 7:30. I was driving my 5T, loaded with equipment, Boundary exit to Hwy 1 West. You're supposed to look left as you come around the ramp and adjust your speed to be able to merge. Two cars in front, the driver just stops. Lots of breaks in traffic and the guy just sits there. He starts crawling, so the car behind him thinks he's going for it and hits the gas to follow (whilst looking left, I guess). The guy in front stops again FOR NOTHING and the guy behind slams into him. Both their faults, yes but if the guy up front wasn't a fucking bonehead and just got on already, he would've been long gone.

Now how the fuck is it possible for me to go around them, take note of the plates and easily merge into traffic (due to the weight of my load and the incline, I shifted 5-6 times before I was actually completely on the freeway)? Uhhh...I don't know....maybe I have a fucking clue what's going on and know my vehicle? Idiots.

i see this all the fuckin time at were you have to merge onto the highway. how the fuck do u expect to merge into traffic doing 60 when they are doing 90+

fliptuner
09-23-2010, 08:41 AM
60? Fuck, at 60 you have a chance of someone taking pity on your dumbass. At ZERO, it's game over. If the merge point is long enough and the stopped car is way up front, guaranteed people are going to merge behind him and give him a WTF while passing.

gdoh
09-23-2010, 08:46 AM
but when they merge in that slow it fucks everything up behind them. yea zero is retarded.i dont let people in if there arnt going as fast or faster than me if ur to dumb to hit the gas then go behind me

This is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

It's not your call whether or not to prevent people from breaking the law. If they want to speed, it's their choice and they will deal with the consequences...not you. Stay right.
