To the Left.. To the Right..

Dear fellow drivers,

The far left lane on the highway is for fast people or those trying to overtake. ONLY! Not for everyone to cram into.

Sincerely,
Homicidal

    Yes! yes! And people on the left lane should NOT slow down if people on the right lane do!

    PS: using the 2 most right lanes to overtake and zoom through traffic is an offence and should be punished by public flogging

    N.: yabeela special permit to drive in the far left lane..

    ammaro: while i know it’s illegal, i don’t blame them. when the fast lane is occupied by slow turtles and the far right lane is EMPTY, there’s no other choice really!

    ammaro: no not really… i manage to zig zag my way or just stick to the middle lane.. but this morning i looked to my left and it was jam packed with cars.. and occasionally i saw a flying car zooming by on the right. there’ve been times where i’ve been stuck in the left lane behind all the slow pokes tho and it’s annoying!

    Blue dress: i know.. that’s why this blog is the only place i can vent a bit before moving on with my life.. or zigzag-ing.. whichever works best :)

    Tibitwin, I like that hehe. I do do it, but not insanely. I value my life! But it may look extreme to the very soft hearted.

    I always thought that what would be cool is to have an express lane. It would be two lanes, where the minimum speed is 140! Anyone who is slow and on the left express lane, must move to the right express lane and finally exit the express lanes. He/She MUST get out of the way, or risk being fined! (Thanks of course to my Slapper products, many drivers have been quite satisfied, and there will be more products to come soon! Stay tunes! ;p)

    dear qatari / saudi drivers (or anyone else who makes up their own rules of the road)
    at a junction the third (or fourth) lane on the right is NOT ok for turning left.

    In here all the lanes are the same.. the left one to turn left.. the right to turn right and the middle to go straight.. else than that you will get a ticket.

    N.: if you ran for office, with those issues, I’d vote for you :)

    bint battuta: ufff i hate it when that happens! my response to those is normally: “SHARE3 UBOOK??”

    eshda3wa: plz let me know when u start your shooting rampage for me to get out of your way!

    Judy: thakarteeny ib ayam el US where most people stay in the right lane UNLESS they’re overtaking.. and when turn signals were actually used to let other drivers know what you’re doing.

    Eventhough I can drive, i prefer sitting next to the driver, fasten my seatbelt and close my eyes! ;)

    MSB; Cairo and lebanon are for traffic. Saudi is for driving with absolutely no law or restriction on anything you might or might not do.

    ammaro: i’ll give you cairo, but when’s the last time u drove in lebanon? insane driving.. no regard to any traffic signs.. they even u-turn on round-abouts! :)
