Reply to comment by justadumbwelder1 in PSA:In snowy conditions, expect people to drive slower. by BadLuckShoesie

Driving 70mph on a snow covered road is stupid in my opinion. I am not interested in causing the death of another person. I choose safety over getting there yesterday.

Dont disagree with you completely, but when everyone is going 70 and one person is going 45 in the left lane coming out of portland, who is creating the hazard. The "no vehicles under 5hp and no animals led or driven" signs exist for a reason.

If the roads are bad enough that someone is driving 45 in the left lane, and you’re going 70? I have news for you about who is wrong in that situation

If the roads are bad, yes. If its like last friday and the interstates are fine but the 45 sign is on but everyone is going 70, then what?

Btw, i genuinely dig your user name.

There’s definitely some judgement needed there.

Today I was on 95 & 295 around noon and there were some folks definitely not exercising judgment

Most of the time in Maine there's only a left lane and a right lane. No "far right lane."

Right. As I said, a lot of Maine doesn't though. I didn't say none of maine.

I don’t travel much past Freeport these days. More so to Mass and back, quite often so our grandson can visit his mother. I’m doing 70 in the middle lane and I’ve got crazies blowing by me in the left and right lanes. Swerving! No blinker! There is literally no common sense and no respect ! I was told I was in the wrong lane and going too slow one time.
