So they can gawk like retarded faggots
I think in most places there is some sort of law about driving with plenty of clearance. Slowing down as well I think. Also, I like to see what is happening.
Yeah, move over or slow down is law in my state. Plus, some sneaky cops will dothat shit behind a broken down vehicle to look like theyre already busy.
Because people live fear-based lives, and these sheep will bend over backwards for anything that even smells authoritative
Where I'm from sometimes the state troopers just line up the cars at an onramp and pull over everyone speeding.
This infuriates me to no end. Just like when people see a cop they go 5 under, or match the cop's slower-than-speed-limit speed. Every time I can, i just go around them at a normal speed and pass the cop.
I got really frustrated and just laid on my horn last week at a guy who was going ~5 under in the left lane b/c there was a cop in the next lane. Eventually he got over and i proceed. cop didn't do anything.
Civilized people aren't looking to break rules/laws just for the sake of breaking them. Which is all "getting by" with some speeding would be. For safety reasons its reasonable to slow down a bit when you see an emergency vehicle. It could be a routine traffic stop or there could be something going on which is dangerous for the police/med or even for the person driving by in the case where a criminal decidedes to suddenly flee.
I'm flabbergasted 1) this had to be asked 2) the number of comments with people being irrational pricks about something which should be common sense and basic self-preservation.
In at least one state they’ve made it a law that you have to move to the other lane or slow down for a police officer that has pulled over a driver.
I lay into the horn when assholes do that
as noted, in some localities you are required to slow down if in the lane next to a vehicle that's stopped with flashing lights...yeah, some people are just fucking loozer jewfaggot gawkers...
and sometimes where there's one, there's more...e.g. a speed trap
A few things can be happening depending on where you are.
They are fucking gawkers
They are slowing or moving over because of a state law requiring it.
The cops there like to stack nearby so when you speed past the next privateer gets you.
Cops in that area set it up as a speed trap often. I saw this learning to drive. Most often near dusk or at night. Two cops stage their cars, rear car turns on lights like they’ve pulled someone over. They stand by with their radar gun on passing cars. The front car sits ready to chase you down and ticket you.
Normally people slow down and give space due to state laws
