    In Colorado stay right to pass and faster traffic keeps right. SHOULD BE THE LAW. Actually threw the flame throwers on for a left lane hog and passed him on the right in a 65 MPH zone and the trooper behind me lit that guy up too and instead of ticketing him, per state law, just kept going. That's right, FTP.

    So, it's a State law that the trooper has to ticket him? Wow, I didn't know that! I always thought officers had some sort of discretion.

    Yes the officer is your first contact and always has the greatest amount of discression. They also show very poor discression.

    That's part of the problem. They just do whatever they want to do, and enforce the law however they want to enforce the law. Then they ball it all up into a package and present it to the general public as "discretion". The law is rarely enforced by officers exactly as it's written.

    Can you give me some examples of what you think of as officers not enforcing the laws as they are written?

    ETA: I meant in general, not specifically "OFficer So and So..."

    Yes I know left from right. If you look around on the highways of colorado you will notice the right lane open and the left lane used as a rolling road block.

    I see a lot of people going the speed limit in the left lane, when people are going the speed limit in the right lane meaning you cant get around the people going the speed limit, but I don't really see people going under in the left lane.

    In Dallas, it was pretty cut and dry - driving in the left lane will get you ticketed. Here, even though the signs say passing only, people use it to drive in, they don't get the concept...

    buuuuut, isnt this all a little off topic? watch the video.
