I decided to do a deeper dive on Utah law and express lanes

Correct except for the move right part. There is no obligation for a driver in

Superkid

This is correct and is the legal basis for someone justifying the action

Medute

He also fails to note that the law explicitly carves out the HOV lane as being

Does it say anything about identifying as "they" for carpooling purposes?

Yep, the carpool lane is meant to incentivize carpooling with more speed being

3/7/22 11:16am

Yep! It’s pretty straight forward

Medute

I’ve seen commuter-lane campers get pulled over. I hope doctorcoug doesn’t make

I hate the guy who screams up on me when I'm going 10-15+ in the car pool lane.

Yep, you did the right thing. I’ll try not to ride your tail so close next time

Medute

3/7/22 11:27am

I wouldn’t have left the HOV lane.

You forgot this law:

I didn’t think I needed to. Driving under control with speed is obviously key

Medute

3/7/22 11:46am

I agree, but there shouldn't be an expectation of going above speed limit

runnincoug

The left lane law is pretty clear on this

Medute

3/7/22 11:49am

Sounds like a Garden of Eden situation: Two laws, and sometimes you can't keep

runnincoug

3/7/22 11:59am

It’s clear cut that you yield to faster traffic by moving right. It’s the law

Medute

Comparing me to Satan? Someone's a little testy... Road rage much? 😉

runnincoug

I agree, but it goes both ways. If a driver is speeding then pull to the right.

I’m not a road rager and never have been. It’s more the common courtesy

Medute

3/7/22 1:10pm

I've never heard "Left lane" rules applying to HOV lanes. Maybe you're...

greatbam

I tried to keep the two separate because there is a difference

Medute

3/7/22 2:30pm

Yeah but it doesn't "convert to a left lane." In a regular left lane..

greatbam

3/7/22 2:49pm

You just have to use common sense

Medute

3/7/22 3:34pm

It’s common sense. If you are going slower than other lanes, get out of HOV lane

The_Cuss

3/8/22 12:34am

Left lane laws don’t apply to the HOV/express lane.

Superkid

3/7/22 2:30pm

If you’re interested in not breaking the law, and being considerate is important

russkiejedi

3/7/22 11:59am

The ONLY time I will probably ever fully agree with Medute. It’s logical…

The_Cuss

3/7/22 11:55am

Oh come on, I bet there are lots human decency examples we agree on

Medute

3/7/22 11:58am

Also, don't enter or exit the carpool lane if you are crossing double white
