but as soon as you get to that designated area, move over.
You also don't have to adhere to the 70 MPH limit in the HOV lane any more than you would in normal lanes. If you want to go 70, get out of the HOV lane and putt along with normal traffic.

I'm kind of confused as to how the left lane is technically the fast lane when

Not a fast lane, a passing lane. If you are not actively passing someone,

It's not the "fast lane," it's the "passing lane."

what do you mean? It's simple

So if you are going 65, and someone is trying to pass you, you are both

The police enforce the speed laws; not citizen drivers.

The law says you must move over when being overtaken by a faster car.

unless you are passing someone correct?
concolor couguar
11/21/14 10:04am
right, but as soon as you've passed that car, you need to get over

at what point are you allowed to ram the cars in front of you with your rental
concolor couguar
11/21/14 10:07am
any time your rental is larger than the car you're ramming

Don't know. The news cast just stated those words as the law. There might be

Yes, definitely.

That seems really difficult to enforce for an officer

Person chilling in the passing lane. More disruptive.

they aren't speeding if they're stuck behind the slow idiot

I am just trying to picture the scenario where on officer knows this is occuring
concolor couguar

where what can be enforced?

Wouldnt the officer have to see the other people come up on the blocker at a
concolor couguar
11/21/14 10:25am
no, just needs to see a long line behind the blocker

There's a reason that signs state explicitly that left lane is for passing.

This seems like it would be the best way to fix this. No one can be in the left

The problem is the idiots who do this are watching The Simpsons, not the news.

Or breaking it, if you are squatting in the left-hand lane like you usually do.

When you are in the HOV lane, can't move over until get to designated area.
Hinta

but as soon as you get to that designated area, move over.

I've noticed that CA drivers aren't great about getting out of the left lane

The difference is that no one in CA "pretends" to care what the signs say
