This is also sooooooo true.............. :)

and what do you have there in the U.S. rules of the road? In Russia outside of the village it is forbidden to drive on the left lane when the right lane is free.

Sorry lady, but I have no sympathy for you whatsoever. I've lost count of the times I have muttered obscenities under my breath because an idiot like you was in the left hand passing lane with a long line of traffic backed up behind you. Traveling up and down I/75, going back and forth to Tennessee, I see this on a regular basis. I guess people like this woman either can not read, don't know what it means or could care less about the posted signs that say for slower traffic keep to the right. In my opinion more of these inconsiderate drivers need to be ticketed.

Woman gets ticket for driving 2 mph under speed limit

A Maryland woman has gotten a very unusual speeding ticket for driving a mere two miles under the speed limit on Interstate 95.

Local NBC affiliate News4 reports that the woman, who asked to keep her name anonymous, was driving 63 miles per hour in a 65-mph zone. Police say the reason they ticketed her was that she was driving in the left lane reserved for speedier commuters.

"[I was] really shocked," she told the station. "I thought, 'Oh my God, you've got to be kidding me.'"

Of course, commuters who get annoyed by someone hogging the right lane might salute the move.

However, the woman noted the area was experiencing heavy winds at the time and she was only driving under the speed limit as a safety precaution. She also claimed to have never been ticketed before.

"Sometimes when it's dangerous, you have to do what you can to stay safe," she said.

She has one ally on her side: the local branch of AAA.

"The reason [the ticket] is silly is because it's sending the wrong message," said John Townsend of AAA Mid-Atlantic. "And that is, 'We will tolerate you driving at more than the speed limit, but it you drive below the speed limit, then you're penalized for that
