Oh, and as if this isn't the case everywhere else? I got news for you, buddy, you probably technically tailgate, too. If you're going 60, do you really leave a six car length gap between you and the next car? I doubt it, because someone will jump right on in. Repeated lane changes, done safely, are pretty much risk free. If you're so worried about an accident, I have a solution. Don't drive at all. If you want to drive the limit, buddy, I suggest that you stay in the second lane from the right. If you're worried about merging traffic in the right lane -- and if you can't handle that, then you shouldn't be on the road in the first place -- you avoid it there. It does say slower traffic keep right. So listen to them. -- Tony Wang http://www.geocities.com/colosseum/2544 Remove the nospam from my name to send me mail
