My literal reading of the California Vehicle Code is that if you are going in the leftmost lane at lower than the speed limit, and if there are vehicles behind you, then you are obstructing traffic. To avoid doing so you must merge to the right. >No the people that should get the tickets are the ones weaving in and out >of traffic, not maintaining a constant lane.

All lane changes are risky. I practise what I call 'lazy lane changing', i.e., I stay in my own lane until there is a pressing need to change lanes, then I change lanes and stay in the new lane again until it's necessary to change lanes again. -- Rahul Dhesi <dhesi@spams.r.us.com>
