feldos Champion Author Florida Posts:2,640 Points:550,500 Joined:May 2011	Message Posted: Jul 3, 2011 5:20:22 PM Ignore feldos Report Abuse Right or center except to pass...and with the usual flow of out of state highways of 65-70mph, that means usually in the left lane. In FL on I-75, usually center because traffic is often running 80-85+mph in left.

MottyMo Rookie Author Georgia Posts:12 Points:365,990 Joined:Jul 2008	Message Posted: Jun 27, 2011 5:52:45 PM Ignore MottyMo Report Abuse I pass everything known to Man on the right. You goofballs that stay in any other lane except the right are breaking the law and are a roadhazard yourself. Most of you idiots are selfish and have no concept of etiquette towards others on the road, in a grocery line, or to your own loved ones. Have a great day fishing alone, golfing alone, and dying alone.

The law says, keep right except to pass (or turn left on a city street), in Ontario anyway.
