Left Lane Hog Gets Instant Justice

- Let's establish that nobody in this video was speeding. There was nobody behind me, so I slowed down to about 60 mph in a 70 zone so that the officer would pass me quickly and not notice my missing plate stickers (stolen). I just thought that this was a funny and interesting video to share. Enjoy!
The thing that gets me is, that driver had PLENTY of chances to get over, but doesn't until it's already too late.
Somebody give this officer an award for actually caring about keeping the roads safe and clear, as opposed to sitting at the bottom of a hill on a sunny day with a box of donuts behind some bushes with a LIDAR gun
So speeding is safe and keeps the traffic clear? You're a hypocrite, though you won't admit it.
AMG or BUST ROCK ON!!!!
thelittlepilgrim What are you? Just another bossy betty who holds up traffic for their "own good"?
+No More Honor Killings: all I am is simply someone who states what the laws are and follows them. What are you? A criminal?
thelittlepilgrim Holding up the passing lane is begging for trouble. Not to mention it's fucking illegal you hypocrite!!!
I don't see that stuff happen nearly enough. Speeders are toast, but people that make driving a true hell? They get away with their non signaling lane cutting and hogging ways.
Speeders get away with speeding constantly.
Speeders don't impede the flow of traffic
Ryan Orr: But they're speeding and are breaking the law.
thelittlepilgrim The left lane bandits are also breaking the fucking law!
You'll find that people driving 5 or even 10 over the limit are not the people causing accidents and traffic jams. It is the morons, like left lane drivers, people who take forever to start moving when the light turns green, people who create a gap between them and the next driver that is ten times more than necessary for the speed, people who won't use turn signals, people that cannot figure out how to negotiate a 4 way stop, it goes on and on and on.
my dad lives in SC. when i was learning to drive, he always told me “the left lane is for passing only.” i’d say it’s the best driving advice i’ve ever been given because left lane hogs can cause not only bad traffic but also dangerous accidents
I love seeing people get pulled over for doing that.
I long for the day I see it in person
WildGurgs36 been there, done that :)
doing the speed limit? yea doubt it
@@bandit99515was the law not shown at the start of the video? a law everyone has to follow? Left lane is only for passing slower vehicles. If there is no traffic in the right lane, you have no business hogging the left like that. I guess you just can't read or understand basic instructions.
i block the left lane so speeders slow down. @@whynot5568 any questions?
What pisses me off more than a slow left lane bandit is when they intentionally match the speed of someone in the right lane & create a rolling roadblock!
slow down mister race car
@@bandit99515it's just because so many people are absolute idiots and do not understand driving statistics because I never took an actual class or sat through Court when they didn't have their own ticket to deal with in most of the people that are out there on the road were taught how to drive by Mommy and Daddy. Too many people don't think while they're driving don't even think about the reality that in a panic situation people are miss me more likely to need to change lanes rather than just panic and slam on their brakes and hope that that does everything I need to avoid a situation. So any driver with any training at all knows that one of the most dangerous things you can possibly do on the road is to drive the same speed as the lane next to you.
They're very few laws that are consistent in every single state in the United States but one of them is driving the right most Lane except for passing and do not impede faster traffic. This does not suggest that you should speed however it does clarify that you're just making the situation unnecessarily dangerous by leaving the right lane without passing and you're disobeying the law if you leave the right lane without passing and you're breaking the law if you impede faster traffic even if they're speeding. And you're going against the designers of the law and the designers of the road.
you want things to be safe keep right except to pass and do not impede faster traffic and learn the laws in your jurisdiction because driving the right most Lane and do not impede faster traffic is a law in each and every state. Tell me your state and I'll tell you the traffic code for your jurisdiction.
@@bandit99515keep the left lane clear for any potential emergency vehicles and keep right except to pass Mr vigilante cop.
There are three types of drivers: 1) Those peeved about people driving slow in the left lane, 2) people who do this and aren't aware that they're a problem, and 3) people who think they're some sort of citizen cop and intentionally do it to "police" other drivers. Person #1 is justifiably angry. Person #2 can be educated. Person #3 should have their license taken away.
Depends on how you define "slow." Some states don't have a law saying the lefthand lane is only for passing. People who are angry in those states about someone in the lefthand lane have no leg to stand on, especially if they're going the speed limit. The burden is on the lawbreaker, not law abider.
+thelittlepilgrim: If you're blocking traffic, that makes you a lawbreaker, even if you feel justified in doing so because you're driving the speed limit.
Person 3 should burned alive and lynched
i block faST DRIVERS, DEAL WITH IT
There are currently 45 states that have a law that says get the hell out of the way. "Some states" means 5 states. Note - the laws of physics are no different in those five states. Get the hell out of the way is the correct way to drive everywhere in the USA. And Canada and Europe for that matter.
I watch this everyday and I start my day in a good mood
FROM POLICE ACADEMY:
Officer Tackleberry: Excuse me, sir, but you holding up the passing lane. Please move to the right lane.
A-hole driver: Drop dead, I'll move over when I'm ready!!
Officer Tackleberry: YOU'LL MOVE OVER NOW, MISTER!! (shoots out a-hole's tires)
I've never been this satisfied in my entire life! It feels goooooooddd!!! Left lane hog drivers are just worse than piece of shit. Lol
Watched a smart car get pulled over for aggresive driving he wouldnt let ANYONE pass him tried to ram my truck (a freightliner) 2 times before i called 911 on him thinking this guy was drunk at 4am state trooper lights him up and guy brake checks the trooper and yanks the wheel to the right almost causing a crash am sure the officer was not in the best of moods when he introduced himself to that driver
crapper1 not that smart hehehehhehehe
crapper1 LOL He had to have been either drunk or sky high on something strong. Geez!
You get it on camera?
+crapper1 And you it did put it up??
did not have the camera at the time :(
Rate of speed is only one variable. Empty road in front of you. Get in the right lane. It's all about having good habits, like looking both ways before crossing the street, or using your turn signals.
One of the best instant justice videos. Hate left lane trolls
I wish this happened more often. Driving from Kentucky to Florida a few weeks ago, I encountered at least 20 of these chowderheads.
If your doing less then the speed limit, or slower then other motorist while in the left lane, you are a hazard. And a bad driver!
D. Graves III if you were doing the same speed as a driver in another Lane you're a dangerous driver regardless of how fast you're going or how slow you're going it is always dangerous to travel the same speed as traffic next to you
Left lane is for passing ONLY
Otherwise known as "Keep right except to pass"
false. other drivers can stf down. fact
@@bandit99515 if you're in left going 90 then yeah
@@TormentDubz nope. i drive speed limit in all lanes. don't like it, stay home.
Wish there were more police to stop more people doing that! Still, I'm glad you got that recorded! Nice to see someone get stopped for going too slow in the fast lane! Thanks!
Too slow? If they are going the speed limit, it's never too slow. Just saying in general.
thelittlepilgrim Understood, but if you're doing the speed limit (or less) than you must get in the right lane, so you don't hinder traffic moving at a higher speed than yourself. That's why the left lane is also referred to as the PASSING lane.
+Taggernut: but know it's not a nationwide law. It's state by state.
+thelittlepilgrim yes, it is state by state, but +Taggerung has a superior point. If you camp in the passing lane needlessly, you intice road rage, which can be a $#!+LOAD more dangerous than speeding.
Actually, speed doesn't even apply in nearly all of the states with left lane laws. It doesn't matter how fast you're going, you still have to move right if there is traffic behind you and you aren't passing someone in the lane to your right.
He honestly gave the person a chance. This is why I always maintain that most of the left lane hogs a just plain stupid.
I always thought "Keep right except to pass" was an unwritten rule and not an actual law.
Depends on jurisdiction
in most countries/areas/whatever with logical traffic laws it is law. however it is also common courtesy and even common sense to keep on the right lane as soon as it is clear. left lane hoggers are in my opinion one of the most annoying drivers out there
it's an actual law, and they are posted at highways everywhere.
+ImmortalVeteranPro: Actually it isn't always a logical law. There are many situations where forcing all the traffic into the righthand lane is very ineffient and illogical. And if people want to talk common courtesy, and common sense, then not speeding would be included in those, and it's also the law.
+Sharpy RockOut: no, it depends. Only 29 states have that law. You can look it up. If the law doesn't apply, then it doesn't apply.
You still haven't replaced those plate stickers? You're the worst kind of criminal.
MrHeyfuckoff Still waiting on the DMV ;)
HaloMasterMind117 Tell it to the judge.
MrHeyfuckoff It's actually a legit excuse. If I can prove I did my part I shouldn't have a problem.
HaloMasterMind117 Yeah yeah, now I've heard it all. Cuff him boys.
***** Don't question my Authoritah
Serves that hog right. Slower traffic keep right is pretty much the law in most of the 50 states.
petezahut93 slower traffic keep right has always been law in the United States in every state and most of the traffic laws on the road I would keep most of the traffic laws on the road reiterate that but are police massively are made up of citizens that are just as stupid as the rest of us so they don't know what the laws are but it's always been a law in the United States that we drive on the right past the left and it's always been a long Europe that you drive to the left and pass on the right and every state has more than a dozen the laws that say that and have for many decades but people including lawmakers are too stupid to read the existing laws so they just make new ones and forget them as well
"Keep right except to pass" and "Left lane is for passing ONLY" signs should be posted just as much, if not more than speed limit signs.
I see this all the time, and it's never enforced here in the PNW. The only thing worse would be a Prius camping out in the left lane.
-
Funny how something so simple can be oh, so satisfying!
-
Anyone else notice the Honda del sol disabled on the Side? No ? Oh ok 😂😂
And if I were that SUV driver, I would have used that as my defense since most states require you to move left for disabled vehicles on the right shoulder.
i saw this happen the other day except the guy was right next to another car in the right lane and they were both road blocking a cop for miles until he pulled them over. nothing makes me happier
Wow, Halo, That dude needs to read the laws! Love your vids! :)
i would give half of my pay check to this officer if i could. i also hit like button before i started watching lol
Damn I wish this was enforced more!!
I can't believe the driver didn't see the patrol car behind him.I've see lot of drivers do the same they take forever to move(if they move).
ITs so annoying slow ass people in the left lane then you try and make them switch lanes by flashing them or honking and they give u the finger..
Are you speeding?
that's why I speed up and make them move.
+No More Honor Killings: But even with a medical emergency, can you still speed? There is the issue of kinetic energy increases by the square of the speed. So it's like a medical emergency, but it increases the risk of creating another emergency. (I know cops and ambulances can speed, but I'm talking of civilians).
+NoMoreHonorKillings: But by speeding, you're increasing the risk of everyone including the dying child. Kinetic energy increases by the square of a car's speed, not to mention reduced reaction time and stopping distance. You can't use a car as a time machine.
+CodyCooper: I'm right, and it's insane to tell someone who's right to shut up. People who are wrong should fix it or shut up. Not me, who is right. You sound like a lawbreaker who just wants to break the law without being called out on it. You're not above the law.
While driving through north and South Carolina, I didn't experience any type of bad driving. I was expecting more moments like this. Great capture !
If only this law would be enforced more… Here in France it's a huge problem.
I wish we had a similar law here... and that they would actually enforce it...
It's good to have dreams...
Driving Edmonton and area If it is against the law in Alberta to not obey a regulatory sign and "keep right except to pass" or "slower traffic keep right" signs are posted the police could still right hogs a ticket.
Ryan Langlois write*
Ryan Langlois Unfortunately those signs are merely a "suggestion" and without the law to back them up, any ticket issued would be tossed out in court.
Driving Edmonton and area most of the US does have left lane only to pass laws. I think all but four states now. it's always been National driving law that you pass only on the left and drive in the right-most lane and most states have passed new laws to reinforce that. and keep right signs are not a suggestion, if there's a road sign it's a law.
Driver: *Changes lanes*
Cop: Nope
*Immediately turns on lights*
Driver: *Pulls over*
Yeah, it was in the video we all just watched.
Yeah dumbass he was blocking the lane
Lol right here thought the lights weren't for him
Everythang Texas 4 years late brah haha
can't wait for them to start doing this in metro Atlanta and all Georgia!
We need this law in California honestly. Too many clueless sloths in the left lane.
I feel a little bad for him, he flipped on his blinker right before the officer turned on his lights lol.
He shouldn’t have been in that lane that long anyways.
Too little, too late.
Title 56 Statute 5-1810! Ah, the good old days! That was ALWAYS my favorite ticket to write :) And I LOVED it when they came to court to explain they were driving the speed limit so they're NOT GUILTY!!! ROFLMAO Still Today!!! And I haven't been a Trooper in 31 years!
Left-lane hogging is endemic here in Spartanburg SC. I was wondering while watching this if it was a Sparkle City native heading for the beach. Yet there's not a single sign in this area reading "Slower traffic keep right," or anything like that. But commemorative signs for roads, bridges, interchanges, and even sidewalks, are just everywhere. I'm sure that all these commemorative designations are for good, noble, even heroic (or sometimes just rich) people; but we need to start taking care of practical matters in order to keep people alive and safe now.
What a satisfying video to watch, nice catch!
If you don't hog the left lane and always do your homework, you'll be good to go.
Here's how to deal with a left lane bandit. Get just ahead of them in the right lane. Hold that position. If they slow down, you slow down. Don't let them shake you off. This will make them stand out like a sore thumb, and there's nothing they can do about it. Keep this up until they get the message.
Will they get the message, though? In my observations, if these people can pass 30 signs that say "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT" and still not figure out what to do, are they going to understand what you're doing?
HaloMasterMind117 Believe me, they will. When you have them like that, everybody is breathing down the left lane bandit's neck. If said left lane bandit tries to shake you off, they stand out all the more. I've done this many times. Including one stupid old fossil who would go no faster than (believe this if you can) 25 mph in the left lane. Everybody else will ignore you and focus all their road rage on the left lane bandit.
oh yea brilliant
It isn't a matter of how slow your going the left lane is not called fast lane it's a passing lane and the rite is lane of travel .the mindset of some people that they can jump on the hwy go directly to the passing lane and do whatever speed they want no matter who is behind them has become a huge problem in CA .I see idiots everyday post up in the pass lane and control the speed of anyone behind them , and imoass them after I give chances to move over then I flash my high beams and honk as I am forced to pass on the rite and most often I am flipped off or dogged for wanting to go my speed of choice .it's pretty simple and would actually prevent some stages of traffic jams .plus rite lane is exit lane so left hogs see the exit of choice and cut at the last min making more danger to those around them .
The piano music made this hilarious
I guarantee that no fewer than three times during the course of that stop that driver told the officer, "bUt I WaSN't SpEeDIng tHOuGh!"
Good job cop
Here is the correct portion of the law that applies in this case. Exemption one did not apply because of the officer was directly behind the vehicle for a good half mile or more:
(1) when no other vehicle is directly behind the vehicle in the left lane."
Yes! Finally! Justice!
Hi, how's it going? May I feature this clip on my channel? If so, could you tell me where this happened? Also, do you have any additional details on the incident? Thanks for your consideration
I started driving in the UK in 1972 and we were taught to drive in the nearside lane 1 unless overtaking or turning right. Then came the 3 lane MOTORWAYS and for some reason drivers assumed, lane 1 was for trucks and coaches etc. Lane 2 was cars and lane 3 to overtake, or for VIPs and Large expensive cars. Ordinary cars had to get out of there way and if Mr. VIP was driving slow well they just had to follow. At that time there was no speed limit and Mr. Lotus could easily keep up or be even faster than Mr. VIPs Jaguar and so undertaking took place together with some weaving, two fingered gestures and bad language though at 100 mph the words went with the wind.
Then to make matters even worse the 70mph speed limit gradually came in, cars became faster and the car train in lane 3 was invented. This where my brother became rich as he had a wrecker truck and his garage was near the lower end of the M1 Motorway. The lead car of the car train would drive into a fog bank, slam on his brakes and the carriages would shunt into one another. No the game was to get as many cars off the motorway as quick as possible, so brother would tow them to a near by side road, dump them and tear back for another, when the road was clear he then picked up the dumped ones.
The police have tried to stop the lane crawlers but with cuts to the police force, the problem is getting worse. Together with the lane 3 to exit divers, the weavers and LHD wagons that are the biggest 2020 problem.
Hey, do you have a legit dashcam now or are you still using your smartphone? Also, who the heck steals registration stickers? I live in Pennsylvania and I've been driving the same truck for more than 7 years. My registration comes due in August and I just stick the new sticker over the old one. My truck's a 2010 bought new in September 2009, and I'm pretty sure I have registration stickers going all the way back to 2010 on there.
"Slower traffic keep right"
or "keep right except to pass"
are two ways of saying the exact same thing that are the law in this country and people will argue that the law doesn't apply if the sign is not currently there.
as if there's no speed limit when you can't see a speed limit sign. people are so stupid.
Or if they're, "DOING THE SPEED LIMIT" which doesn't mean a rat's ass!
If such a law exist in California, I'm unaware of it. It's not prominently displayed with traffic signs as in Texas.
theres no law in california thats why their traffic is so bad and theres so many accidents and road rage
For a second there I thought the description said you stole your car.
LOL! He switched lanes right before he turned on the lights, meaning he noticed like a few seconds too late. Hilarious.
I Lol at him changing lanes after like a whole 20 seconds the police was behind then turned his lights on to pull him over
As a South Carolinian, this makes me happy. Is this I-20?
I want to shake that cops hand.
Uh duh Martha, Now why is he pulling us over? We aren't speeding duh.
Hell I heard hyrule Castle music. Subbed.
I wish these laws were enforced in TX. Everyone loves to drive in left lane and not move over when car approaches. Overseas everyone will move over to let faster car pass you right away.
KAPETA33 What frustrates me the most about all the left lane hogs here in upstate NY is how 95% of them ignore me flashing my highbeams at them. Flash-to-pass is one of the basic highway etiquette things I learned in traffic school before I even got my license. I refuse to pass on the right in those situations since it's way too dangerous and I've seen several accidents happen that way, but there are far too many impatient people who don't have that inhibition. Wharrgarbl.
When you flash lights in TX people slow down and break on purpose :/
KAPETA33 You'd be surprised at how often "flash-to-pass" works in Texas. I almost never have to move out of the left lane, but I am always flashing my brights though.
hm... its great to hear that it works some places at least i guess :)
Lol awesome! Great capture!
As it should be. All traffic should be in the right except to pass. Left lane hogs are the reason for traffic jams and some accidents
I haul ass on the highway and I’m still in the right lane when I can be
How fast do other states normally drive on the highways? I know California doesn’t have a left lane law but it’s “etiquette” to do 80 MPH because it’s the unofficial fast lane.
They do have one. Vehicle code 21654 states: "Notwithstanding the prima facie speed limits, any vehicle proceeding upon a highway at a speed less than the normal speed of traffic moving in the same direction at such time shall be driven in the right-hand lane for traffic or as close as practicable to the right-hand edge or curb, except when overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction or when preparing for a left turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway."
Was this in the Versa? It has a different signal click at 0:45 😊
Left lane hogging happens all the time here - despite signs saying "slower traffic keep right." One idiot will be cruising along with his hairy arm out the window not giving a damn that there are 10 cars backed up behind him. Unfortunately cops don't seem to care about it. I've seen a cop flash his lights at someone in the left lane once and I think that was just because he wanted to get past them.
haha wish I could see that happen lots in the UK! but for the right lane!
Where is this mystical land where cops enforce lane discipline? I need to move there ASAP
Beautiful.
the only excuse for big brother to micro manage would be to get abusers like this off the roads.
9,000 miles a month, Don’t see this nearly enuf!
Digging the music
Maybe the cop ran his plates and he had a warrant?
beautiful
What’s worse and dumber than a left lane hog? A tailgater
the left lane is technically considered the passing lane right? which is why he got pulled over?
randomrazr exactly, unless you need to pass or to avoid something in the road you basically have no business in the left lane.
Kap pa ive heard people use it as a "fast" lane, or is that a different circumstance?
randomrazr It's not a fast lane either, it is just a passing lane. The only time you have business in that lane is when you pass someone or you are about a KM away from turning left.
randomrazr that's if there is 3 or more lanes I believe.
Might as well to refer to your state law and road code for that. It can be different for any state and country.
Nice music choice, btw. I, too, am a Zelda fan.
People feel entitled to drive in the left lane and block traffic up because they are driving the speed limit. I would love to see the police to take this more seriously and start ticketing drivers for impeding traffic and aggressive driving. If people would show a little courteously on the roads that would stop a majority of the tailgating and such which as seen can be equally as bad. I have lived in the DFW area for 20 years now, each year this gets more and more prevalent.
People keep referring to "Points" on their drivers licenses. I have no idea what that means, it sounds like a video game thing. I've been driving and licensed in 2 different states since I was 16 (11 years) and never had points, or at least I've never been notified of them, lol.
***** in Sc your license gets suspended when you get 12 points. Certain violations results in poonts. Running a red light is 4 points, for example.
***** The most points wins. You must be a noob if you have 0 points.
Ramenhotep lol, that's when you get those tally mark stickers for your back window to show others either what you've hit, or driven or beat lol
😂👍👌
What do you do? Like how are you driving so much?
***** I live
HaloMasterMind117 hahahaha ;D
***** He doesn't drive a V8 truck or something, so a sunday drive isn't an investment or financial decision. You just cruise and know if it takes you all day and a tank of gas its $35-$55. Not $100-$120! I'd drive around filming all the time too if I had that many atrocious drivers around and a fuel sipper!
***** Probably just the work commute, or maybe vacations and visiting family since it is summer time. I drive an average of 5 or 6 hours every week and after a month I easily have 5+ minutes of usable "stupid people" dashcam footage, so I imagine his situation is similar.
Well now at 2022 in sc everybody use the left lane as right lane so if you want to pass someone should be on the right lane
In a previous video a left lane hog pulls over to the left when the cop lights 'em up. SMH
The title should be "Left Lane Hog" I believe, it says "Left Land"
The worst is the left lane hogs on a 4-lane undivided highway. Do they enjoy being only a few feet away from oncoming traffic @ 65-75mph? I post a lot of left lane hogs on my videos. KEEP RIGHT!
Love the Zelda music.
I hate left lane campers! I've never seen anyone pulled over for it. Usually they see the cruiser and move.
That Zelda music.
There are two kinds of drivers (other than me, of course). The *f* ing IDIOTS going 20 MPH slower than me, and the *f* ing MANIACS going 20 MPH faster than me. BTW, my speed is a random number. 😂
Wen I'm in the left lane I'm always doing 85 to 90 I never get over till i come up on my exit
If there is a vehicle behind you and you are not passing, you are still illegal, regardless of the speed you're going.
HA! Slowpoke... Read the signs... Signs are good. They help you.
YES!
Sorry man, half a second too late.
You have a typo in the title, buddy. "Land"
That's not the south Carolina palmetto.
?
I know the left lane is known as the 'passing' lane but maybe the driver was going to make a left turn soon so he was driving on the left lane and also there's no other cars on the road.. I don't see what's the big deal. Now, if there were other cars on the road then the driver should be driving on the right side lane.
You don't make a left hand turn on a controlled access highway. The only defense this driver has is the abandoned car on the right shoulder, which he can see he was avoiding since many states have laws requiring you to move over for cars on the shoulder. Oh, and the "other cars on the road" that you speak of are the police car. Doesn't matter what kind of car it is behind you, you're required by law to move right unless actively passing.
As far as I can tell, the cop hit his lights AFTER the guy signaled and moved over. I consider that a defense that the cop didn't pull the guy over until after he had already complied. If that had happened in Pennsylvania, your video would have gotten the case thrown out.
The violation had already occurred. That's like saying that a speeder can't be cited for the violation if he slowed down when he saw the cop.
He was in that lane for at least a 1/2 mile, and you can tell by the fact that he braked originally, he knew someone was behind him the entire time. The cop did the right thing and gave him ample time to move right, and he was more than likely going to light him up at that exact moment, regardless of whether the SUV signaled.
Rewatching this my thought is that he stayed in the left lane to pass you and was going to get over then say the stalled car on the right shoulder around :30 and stayed over and didn't get over when he should have once the cop came up on him. Who knows though.
That would have been my defense in court for sure.
Damn land hogs ;)
Yes!!
Hahaha! I think somebody needs to learn how to drive
Just know that isn't a nationwide law.
Kade O'Donnell you probably don’t know how to drive because you probably use an automatic, sorry. :|
@@saintofconsequence - Well, it is in SC where this video was made.
