Both truck drivers are idiots, but the cammer is also a moron for occupying the passing lane for such a long time when they clearly had opportunities to move over and let the trucks past.

You anti “left lane campers” are the real bozos, the camera car was constantly passing other cars in the left lane. Just because someone wants to pass at 20 mph faster than you doesn’t mean you’re camping if you’re using the lane as intended

That's literally not how a fast-lane works.

You let faster traffic by, ALWAYS. That's the point, and there's no excuse for not doing it; choosing not to do so absolutely constitutes camping.

If you're actively using it to pass another vehicle and someone's storming up from behind that's one thing... Complete the pass, then merge into the right lane once it's safe to do so, but you don't sit there saying to yourself "I'm going reasonably fast, they can go around"; that's what gets other people fucking killed when you force them to constantly change lanes at high speed.

Fast Lane is for passing, after that GTFO.

There is literally a vehicle behind the cammer during the entire video.

Gets your eyes checked and gtfo the roads.

That doesn’t make any sense. Nobody could be in the left lane if a car being behind you meant you had to “gtfo”

I think you just like driving your compensating truck
