FROM THE LEFT LANE (Article 10) – IT IS NOT YOUR JOB TO PREVENT SPEEDING!

Realize that it is not your job to keep people from speeding

Try not to let emotions control your driving behavior.

Consider that the speeder is making the roads safer for the rest of us. What is the bigger risk while driving on the highway – wrecking or getting a speeding ticket? There are more speeding tickets than wrecks so our biggest worry should be avoiding a speeding ticket. By letting the speeder get ahead of you then that person will get the ticket and you won’t.

Learn how to change lanes.

One reason we “park” in the left lane is because we want to avoid the situation where a slow merging car appears in front of us and then we have to slow down to keep from hitting it. As mentioned above most of us don’t know how to easily change lanes. This can be learned though.

The trick is to know if the lane to change into is clear before a slow car appears in front of us. Because it is not always known when that slow car will appear we must always know if the other lane is clear or not. The way to learn this trick is to consciously ask ourselves if the other lane is clear, at all times while we are driving. This initially requires a lot of mental effort and is best done when driving alone. It may take months but the effort is worth it.

When you have learned this trick you won’t have to consciously ask yourself if the other lane is clear, it will be done unconsciously, all the time.
