Still Passing

Many states have signs similar to'' left lane for passing only" , or " slower traffic keep right", etc. Not many people take it literally. A bothersome trend I've noticed is when everyone just stays in the left lane... not passing anymore, just driving along like there are Not a couple dozen frustrated people behind them. Well, it is frustrating, and what's more, it is an impediment. If an ambulance driver is trying to get someone to a hospital, every second counts. Every single second counts. The second it takes for all those vehicles in the left lane to get the message is a second lost forever. Who knows if it makes a difference? We probably will never know, we can be cynical and think it has no effect, but how do we Know? later
