Here, too, in SC. We FINALLY passed a law against driving slowly in the passing (left-most) lane. But I suspect enforcement will be spotty, at best. I don't think HP has the bandwidth to do much about it, as the fines are too low to incentivize pulling violators over. We'll see.

We have signs on I-10 through Baton Rouge that read "RIGHT LANE EXCEPT WHEN PASSING". Signs don't do anything because they're on the side of the road and not on phone screens where they'd be seen (and still ignored). Police force appears to be dwindling. Can't blame them- cops get shot here. Not much on the highway is enforced. There'll be speed traps once in a blue moon, but that's likely just because they were told to do some.

Maybe they’ll do what they do here- pull up behind them and hit their lights and if that doesn’t work, the siren. Of course it only works momentarily most of the time. Sometimes though they stay over.

Cops sometimes do that here, but they usually just tail them until they have an opportunity to fly around them. When a cop tails a car, that car usually slows to do 5-10 under the speed limit, but remains in the left lane, scared shitless to make any move. Or, as soon as they lean up from the back seat to see the cop in their mirror, they'll swerve over to their right (no signal), cutting off whoever's there. Chances are, the front left passenger in the car isn't paying attention so the cop's lights mean nothing. If the cop yelps the siren, the sudden disturbance scares the POS behind the wheel (Yes, I refuse to call them a "driver") and their kneejerk reaction is to slam on the brakes. This causes a hazard for the cop and everyone tailgating the cop as their personal ėscort through traffic.

I like to watch them jerk the wheel and sh*t their pants when they’re awoke out of their daydreaming by the siren. They don’t tail here for just that reason, they hit the lights right away. If they hit the siren they usually wait until traffic is clear to their right and they back off first. At least the few times I have seen it.

As a partial observer, of course!

Hey guys, I've been traveling on and off and bought a new casa in NC. So, while I've been packing, I've been busting my butt to get the new jacked engine finished and in the Hoe!
I have come across a bunch of NNBS GMT900 parts, mostly stock with less than 150k, AC condenser, timing cover, valley cover, front headlights (garage kept no condensation) air intake box. I do have some replaced stock parts like the front coilovers, have less than 500 miles, as well as the rear springs. A few aftermarkets like the brand new black powdercoated ICT Billet AC AC compressor relocation bracket , Jet Power Control Module Stage 2, Jet TBI spacer, and brand new low temp 180 thermostat. I wanted to give y'all a chance before I throw em up on ebay to PM me and let me know what your interested in?

Baton Rouge Troopers....... Crooks. They tried to scam me.
Returning from a F1-Tunnelboat boat race in Ft Lauderdale. Returning to California. Driving a box van with a single boat trailer. The trailer was BRAND NEW / chrome fenders.... Not a fingerprint on the trailer.

An UGLY Camaro passed me by.. ( must have had a radio?)... A trooper told me to drive to the next rest stop. I pulled in.... He said I hit the side of a Camero. I asked, " where is the Camaro?"..
Trooper said, " He left"..... I said, " Kidding??
They contacted my bosses insurance company. Insurance company said, " Go pound sand", when they inspected my trailer.
....... Crooks....
