1. Drivers intending to make a right turn onto a two-lane highway who tie up traffic behind them because they insist on waiting until both lanes are totally clear before proceeding. Whatever happened to seizing the right lane and then—if they really need to get into the left lane—merge left as traffic permits?
—or—
2. Drivers who park in the left lane of a two-lane highway by going 10 miles per hour less than the speed limit, even on a clear day with dry roads. If they were about to make a left turn any time soon, that would be understandable. But how many times do you see such people proceed for mile after mile totally oblivious to the fact that everyone behind them is compelled to pass to the right?
On second thought, I'll bet both groups are very often the same drivers. I favor issuing them restricted licenses that permit them to drive only on February 30.
