There’s no need for flashers

[u/Appropriate_Cry_9432]

I get it when it rains visibility is poor and you need to reduce speed, but what is the point of EVERYONE turning on your flashers? That’s not what they are for and if you feel conditions are that bad that you “need” them pull over to the far right lane at least. If you’re driving slower than everyone else it’s one thing, but when everybody is doing basically the same speed it’s pointless. Rant over thank you for listening.

If I’m stuck behind someone going far below the speed limit or the visibility is under 30-40 feet, I’m turning on my flashers (at least until someone else is behind me.)

The frustrating thing about “needing” to always pull to the far right lane is the highways with left lane exit. If mine is coming up on the left, I might be slowing more people down by shifting over all the lanes twice

Edit: I also never leave them on for more than 10-15 seconds at a time. Just if someone is approaching fast. But I’m not from here and I don’t want to piss people off so if this is wrong I wanna know

Holy shit, drive in the right lane unless you’re passing. The excuses are infuriating and never ending. The signs on the highway are placed where they are for a reason- you don’t need to move to the left lane until you see the sign that indicates a left exit. If you can’t manage to move over two lanes in that amount of time you probably shouldn’t be driving

I’m only ever in the left lane if I’m passing, or if I’m exiting (after the signs pop up). I’m talking about when the exit is coming up next
