Washington State cracks down on 'left-lane lopers"

Drive slow in the left-hand lane of a freeway in the Evergreen State? It can cost you a cool $124.

Here's the law on the book in Washington:
"It is a traffic infraction to drive continuously in the left lane of a multilane roadway when it impedes the flow of other traffic."

PERIOD. Nobody appointed you left-lane lopers traffic engineers or the state police. So, GET OVER.

J.A. Tosti, creator of Left Lane Drivers of America, has the right idea. He has created a see-through decal for his windshield that says, "REVO EVOM." Seen in a rearview mirror, it reads "MOVE OVER." Eli Dozier has one that says "Slower Traffic," with an arrow pointing to the right lane.
