| 1261281 | 2012-02-25 20:12:00 | Prefect I bet you if the police were behind you would pull over I would if it were safe to do so, if I couldn't I would carry on. Seeing someone slow down because an emergency vehicle behind them is mind-boggling, it holds them up... |

| 1261282 | 2012-02-25 20:55:00 | There's a few issues here, yes the law says keep left unless passing, BUT 1. passing lanes on a highway are signposted to that effect, motorways are not 2. Motorways have multiple lanes to deal with the volume of traffic, they are not purely passing lanes. If the left lanes are full you are perfectly entitled to use the right lane. 3. There is no fast lane, the speed limit is the same in all lanes.Fast lanes are not a New Zealand thing. 4. If you're exceeding 100km/h you are ignoring the road code and can't ***** about someone in the right hand lane also ignoring it. I mention this because I have been happily cruising down the right lane at about 110 km/h in the past, and yes I was passing slow traffic, and had people try to wave me over to the left or flash their lights at me for holding them up. I was already speeding, if I'm not breaking the Law ENOUGH for them then tough ****. The left lane is slow moving and full of exit and entry lanes and better avoided if you're going straight through, it doesn't mean you have to speed or pull over for people who want to break the law. |

| 1261283 | 2012-02-25 21:01:00 | I do the same speed mostly but in the slower lanes if possible leaving the fast lane for idiots who want to do 150km/h, it their life | PeterQ (16315) | ||

If the left lanes are full you are perfectly entitled to use the right lane. Precisely. Nothing to stop someone using and staying in the right lane if they wanted to. |

I just know there is a god when you see some clown who has passed you being pulled up and given a ticket. Do you think the scum speeding **** will move back to the left lane? doubt it. Then why should a law abiding motorist not be allowed to travel in the right lane. If someone came behind tooting and lights flashing I would have no choice but to even go slower. |
