This is how it works everywhere I’ve driven except California, and it works great.
During congestion, there is invariably a car in the fast lane with no cars in front of it, and a line of 1000 cars behind it. That driver should lose their license.
- gizmo686 3y agoHere in Maryland, passing on the right is permitted: > On a highway with unobstructed pavement not occupied by parked vehicles and wide enough for two or more lines of vehicles moving lawfully in the same direction as the overtaking vehicle; Otherwise known as what everyone calls a highway. All the rules about keeping to the right to allow passing do not apply when passing on the right is allowed. Of course, someone who is licensed to drive in MD is allowed to drive in all 50 states, even without being trained on their laws. https://casetext.com/statute/code-of-maryland/article-transportation/title-21-vehicle-laws-rules-of-the-road/subtitle-3-driving-on-right-side-of-roadway-overtaking-and-passing-use-of-roadway/section-21-304-when-passing-on-right-is-permitted https://casetext.com/statute/code-of-maryland/article-transp...

- dragonwriter 3y agoIME, during congestion, there aren't cars with no cars in front of them, and if there, there isn’t a way for them to get into the next lane without coming near a dead stop first. In fact, if neither of those conditions apply, that alone is a pretty good sign that there's not particularly significant congestion.
