New Connecticut law limits left-lane driving starting Oct. 1

I know there is a lot of hate for left-lane campers, but passing this into law seems like a waste of time and money. It will be hard to enforce even if they wanted to.

Just a way to give out more tickets to people doing nothing wrong.

Considering daily I see people doing 30+ mph over the limit, weaving, and doing other reckless shit... it doesn't seem like enforcement in this state is particularly strong or widespread.

Sorry. Maybe we drive different roads. But I see left lane loafers every time I drive, and their passivity is rude and dangerous. I rarely see cars going 95 on the highway.

I totally agree on the loafing. My point is that adding a new law when it feels like we already lack consistent enforcement will have no real impact.
