Keeping Right

‘Keep left unless overtaking’ doesn’t seem to exist anymore.  It now appears to be ‘keep right for as long as you deem necessary and do whatever speed you think appropriate.

On occasion it has been the left lane that moves freely while the right remains slow.  This shouldn’t happen.  There’s something lacking, somewhere.  Training? General attitude?  Culture?

It’s a quickly forgotten rule post gaining a licence.  From that point self importance takes over and no other drivers on the road at that moment in time matter.  What they have to do is obviously very important.

People need to get over themselves.  You’re no more important than the next person on the road.  So relax, consider others, and most importantly if you want to go slow then keep left.
