Hey Dallas, what does this sign mean? Wrong answers only.

Lane for driving in, while doing to speed limit or below. Only leaving it when you have your cross either one or two lanes more in order to get your exit. You will cut off/cause and accident.

The signs are only being installed on non-metro sections of highway where the speed limits are 75 or higher: https://www.txdot.gov/about/newsroom/statewide/2012/050-2012.html Meanwhile, the only written law Texas has on the books regarding lane use on multilane roads is: https://codes.findlaw.com/tx/transportation-code/transp-sect-545-051/ Sec. 545.051(b) An operator of a vehicle on a roadway moving more slowly than the normal speed of other vehicles at the time and place under the existing conditions shall drive in the right-hand lane available for vehicles, or as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway... There's also Sec. 545.053 which requires slower traffic to move right and allow passing traffic to pass on their left, and prohibits them from accelerating while being passed. Interesting, the law also requires slower drivers to yield to faster drivers who signal their desire to pass by honking at them. https://codes.findlaw.com/tx/transportation-code/transp-sect-545-053/

For me it's a reminder to those asshole speeders trying to dangerously drive at 90-100 that the left lane is NOT your personal speedway. If someone is already going 80-85 in the left lane, they are not in the wrong for not getting over to the middle lane just cause you're riding their ass wanting to go 90-100. That is NOT what the left lane is for!

Reply

sugar0530@reddit

It means “slow traffic keep right”, thus using the left lane for passing, unless of course your exit is on the left. It’s common sense, basically. It’s not just Dallas, it’s Texas as a whole. It helps prevent both or all lanes from becoming static. You inevitably always have some a&&hole who prefers to drive obliviously in only the left lane.

One of my greatest joys when driving is seeing those dickheads who try to wildly swerve to the right lane get caught behind slow cars and not able to do what they wanted to do. It's like they're allergic to the brake pedal. Seeing them get some comeuppance is so satisfying. Wanting to go 90-100 and treating the road like a video game and swerving in between everyone constantly is SO fucking dangerous.
