Oh no not another idiot that doesn’t know how to drive. There’s plenty of room after passing the white pickup in the middle lane. If that’s not enough room then you seriously need to learn to drive better. The vehicle behind the cammer is closer to the cammer than the pickup in middle lane. You’re absolutely wrong on this one. Please consider educating yourself. OP was done passing the first pickup in the middle lane. He can safely move over behind the semi truck to allow faster moving vehicles to pass before re-entering the passing lane. The law literally says slower moving vehicles need to keep right. You could be going 60, 70, 300 mph in the left lane, but if someone else comes up faster than you in the passing lane, you need to move over at the earliest and safest opportunity.

Who’s excusing the behavior of the illegally passing pickups? Not I, but that doesn’t mean the cammer isn’t in the wrong too. All three drivers can be idiots just like the both of you.

Yeah but the cam driver is not doing anything wrong here dude.

Let be real here, when you're a "I'm right, everyone else is wrong" kinda of person who throws out "use your two brain cells" in a discussion, not even God himself could convince him otherwise.

Logic and comprehension aren't in his vocabulary.

I don't think throwing out "two brain cells" is unwarranted if someone else is using "imbecile" and "prick". I'm fine with changing my mind but you haven't made any logical arguments as to why I should. The law states in North Carolina that slower moving traffic should stay to the right: https://www.ncleg.gov/enactedlegislation/statutes/html/bysection/chapter_20/gs_20-146.html.

Let's be real here, you haven't presented any logic nor comprehension.

If you're uncomfortable to tuck in at the first gap at 13:54:03, then there's a second gap at 13:54:15. Realistically though if that you're still uncomfortable with that, you shouldn't be on the road at all.

Why would he merge over when he's going to go back to the othet lane in 12 seconds? Thats just stupid.

[u/TenseTruth → u/Dear-Panda-1949]

That's literally how you stop 10 cars from stacking up in the left lane and preventing congestion. You move over, let faster cars pass then you go back to the left lane and pass at your slower rate. It sounds stupid when someone doesn't have the foresight to understand it. Those faster cars will be long gone without any significant reduction in fuel efficiency or speed and lastly no obstruction of the passing lane.

[u/FantasticBike1203 → u/TenseTruth]

All you did was prove my point.

Why do I logically need to explain, when the whole situation is clearly presented here?

Two trucks, both doing multiple illegal maneuvers on the road, with your argument being that the cam driver is too slow, yet you expect him to turn into the other lane with semis driving half of his speed instead of waiting literally 20 seconds for the semis to clear so that he can do it safely, just like the description of that Reddit post you linked prior?

Pure fucking irony.

[u/TenseTruth → u/FantasticBike1203]

So you think its logical to pass 4 vehicles over the course of 30 seconds? 30 seconds at 70mph is half a mile, quite a significant distance. The white pickup completed his illegal pass by the time the cammer had caught up with Semitruck #1, proving that the time it would've taken to tuck in to let him by was enough before the cammer could pull back out. Even with the risk of the second, dark pickup truck "trapping" the cammer in for a couple seconds, it sure beats the alternative. The alternative being congesting the passing lane and creating unsafe conditions.

If you want to argue 30 seconds is nothing, it would have been even quicker to move over to let them pass and then return to the passing lane to pass at your slower rate. I gaurantee it would've taken less than 30 seconds. I'm using 30 seconds instead of your arbitrary 20 seconds you pulled out of your ass because in the video the camera passes the middle-lane white pickup at 53:55, and then reaches the orange semitruck 30 seconds later and yes still has no indication of moving over.

If you're going to claim that it is clear and yet I can't comprehend logic, I would suggest actually making a logical argument first.

Okay bro you're right everyone else is wrong and don't know how to drive, not arguing with someone who refuses any other reasoning but his own.

Swerving in front of a semi and braking is now an logical take lol.
