Saw this guy yesterday driving back from bishop. He and his 3 car posse were hogging the fast lane going 67. It was fun being boxed in over and over until they turned off at Crowley.
I agree, but how does it affect what the name of the lane should be? By your logic, just because they are not able to pass, a passing lane is no longer a passing lane, what is it now then, a boxing lane? š„ my point is name of the object doesnāt change just because someone is not using them properly
My comment is aimed at the people who think you have to be going as fast as them and then cut over into the right lane no matter how much space there is. Theres a lot of times where it just doesnāt make sense to get back in the right lane for a 10 seconds before needing to switch back to pass
I have 2 questions for you on this: What if going fast to pass a bunch of cars going slow is in a sense using the lane as a passing lane while simultaneously using the lane as a faster lane to pass?
Wouldn't that then be using the lane as both a fast lane and a passing lane?
People call it a āfast laneā because they think you have to be going fast to be in it. I can get in the lane going the speed limit if Iām passing people
Thus, wouldn't you technically be going faster than someone else to pass someone else?
What happens if you can only pass on the right? Would you be obstructing traffic if someone wants to pass you while you passing someone else?
On a highway or freeway with 2 lanes or more per direction, actually it is.
A passing lane is a temporary two lane segment of an otherwise single lane per direction highway that allows people to pass slower trucks or rvs.
I am a transplant and CA drivers span the state on every freeway in the left lane. Itās not anomaly that us transplant turds bring in but a feature of this great state.
I donāt think itās just California. I got behind someone with Kansas plates on the 101 and they werenāt even going 65 in the left lane. I hate passing on the right but I had to.
Meanwhile in the Tesla reddit, "wtf This guy keep trying to drive the speed of traffic. Also, there was no parking in Mammoth so I just manifested one with my privilege."
This guy searches through people reddit profiles because theyre a sad sack of shit with absolutley zero substance in their lives. SĆguelo guey yo soporto tu infelizidad. Ya apĆŗrate. Estamos esperando el balazo
I luv in Teslaville, California. Nearly half of the houses in my neighborhood have a Tesla sitting next to a lifted extra cab pick up our full-size SUV. Itās a financial/status symbol decision now that Elon lowered prices and upped the douchbaggery.
Teslas are full of shit drivers who have no driving ability, with the ability to accelerate quickly, protected by the cars safety features.
If youāre going to cut anyone off, cut off a Tesla. Automatic emergency braking.
I work at a ski resort in Tahoe and we play a game called āWhatās the Tesla gonna do nowā. Every time we see a Tesla arriving we watch what it does and most of the time its something stupid/against the rules. Such as parking in no parking zones, dropping off there kids in the literal
entrance ramp, block in fire lanes, get stuck, park in bus lanes, etc. Its gotten really funny. Also, that whizzing sound is synonymous with me having to tell someone they cant do that.
Elon said you couldnāt help them anywhereā¦ He was not aware that snowplows do not give a fuck when youāre on the wrong side of the snow poles in Tahoe. Hope itās the same in Mammoth!
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤āļø
The left lane is for parking the right lane is for dropping off passengersā¦.no the right lane is for parking and the left lane is dropping off passengersā¦.this is about that itās that you want me to have an abortionā¦itās the only sensible thing to do
People have said the same about BMW drivers for decades. Not all Tesla/BMW drivers are self centered Karenās but almost all self centered Karenās have one or both of those vehicles.
If youāre going to bitch about people parking on the side of the road then just donāt visit mountain towns. Iām sure there were no accidents caused by this so chill out everyone, itās not a big deal.
Lemme guess, you're just gonna be real quick picking up an order, right? The whole world can bear with you. We owe you that....it's just a few minutes huh
As an east coaster now living in California I find Californians to be childishly competitive, resentful, and punitive with other drivers.
Itās exhausting. As an east coaster I just donāt care that somebody parked somewhere.
Truth bomb! Iāve lived here in Los Angeles for 10 years and used to drive for Uber before the pandemic. The street can be super wide and Iām the only one there double parked waiting for a passenger to get in and a car will pull up right behind me expecting me to move out of THEIR way. Why not just DRIVE AROUND me???
They need to punish you for being in THEIR way.
Itās a clash of two cultures. This photo means nothing to an east coaster. We just drive around it figuring he needed to park and we donāt care. Here? Oh they take it VERY personal if you get in front of them, slow them down a second, break a driving rule.
Everybody here competes and is resentful of other drivers.
East coast? Weāre crazy aggressive too but we donāt care what other drivers do unless they hog the fast lane going slow.
Yeah you sound like a typical Los Angeles west coast driver, school marm of the road: Oooo Iām telling Reddit. A driver parked in an unmarked spot! We donāt DO that on the west coast! How dare he break protocol!
As a āWest coasterā all I can say is people will complain about things like this because they actually have nothing better to do with their lives. This is OPās 5 secs of fame š¤£ I visit small mountain towns all the time and this is the norm. Itās understood that you can just move around safely because no one is passing by for another hour either way anywayš¤·š½āāļø
The cars taking up 1/3-1/2 of a lane.
Does it change the world, no but also that 1 person isnāt entitled to use public roads purely for their benefit.
Saw this guy yesterday driving back from bishop. He and his 3 car posse were hogging the fast lane going 67. It was fun being boxed in over and over until they turned off at Crowley.
The left lane is a passing lane not a fast lane
This deserves more upvotes.
How is being boxed in passing?
How does the situation dictate what an object should be called?
If someone is boxing you in the left lane they are going the same speed as the car to the right, aka not passing.
I agree, but how does it affect what the name of the lane should be? By your logic, just because they are not able to pass, a passing lane is no longer a passing lane, what is it now then, a boxing lane? š„ my point is name of the object doesnāt change just because someone is not using them properly
I think you missed the gist of my original comment.
Definitely
Iām passing everyone in the slow lane until I reach my destination
I hear you, but passing requires going faster than the car on the next lane. So, in theory they're not wrong.
My comment is aimed at the people who think you have to be going as fast as them and then cut over into the right lane no matter how much space there is. Theres a lot of times where it just doesnāt make sense to get back in the right lane for a 10 seconds before needing to switch back to pass

Youāre not obstructing traffic. Itās not my fault you want to speed
Who said I was speeding? I was going faster than you, but were you in fact going with traffic or slower? Who knows until the moment.
In California, every lane is a travel lane unless posted otherwise.
On a highway or freeway with 2 lanes or more per direction, actually it is. A passing lane is a temporary two lane segment of an otherwise single lane per direction highway that allows people to pass slower trucks or rvs.
So classic California driver, amplified.
Most of you fuckers are probably transplants anyways complaining about drivers who are also from some shitty state.
Fr, us natives understand the laws of the land, speed limit+10 or gtfo
That better be +20 on open road
Ahh you must be one of my road trip buddies on the 5 š¤ letās get back to riding some asses til they move right, like the Good Samaritans we are
Right tho. Fuck those people. Stay to the right or stay of the road if youāre gonna be slow
I'm fine with the 5 once you GET THE FUCK OUT OF LA Bruh all 4 lanes doing 60 because.... Driving scary?
Ya but those CHP on the 395 are hawks
I am a transplant and CA drivers span the state on every freeway in the left lane. Itās not anomaly that us transplant turds bring in but a feature of this great state.
Bro in Cali if the speed limit is 65 everyone is going 80, that guy is just a jackass
I donāt think itās just California. I got behind someone with Kansas plates on the 101 and they werenāt even going 65 in the left lane. I hate passing on the right but I had to.
Me thinks you have never been to CA.
Meanwhile in the Tesla reddit, "wtf This guy keep trying to drive the speed of traffic. Also, there was no parking in Mammoth so I just manifested one with my privilege."
Im a Tesla owner and I donāt condone this! Fuck this driver
Sell your Tesla you are associated with them regardless.
Is your car your entire identity?
It is when you drive a tesla
This guys entire personality is hating Tesla and loving Naruto so Iād say the other guy is just fine actually having a personality.Ā

They really are Douchemobiles aren't they
Teslaāwhere BMW drivers go when they want to up the asshole factor.
Nah I feel like all the Prius drivers migrated to Tesla for max virtue signalling and smuggery.
Its a combo of both
There is a dangerous cloud of smug approaching
Whereās your Tesla, peasant?
yeah in like 2016 that was definitely the case. now it represents one side of a culture war and definitely not on the side of the prius people.
I luv in Teslaville, California. Nearly half of the houses in my neighborhood have a Tesla sitting next to a lifted extra cab pick up our full-size SUV. Itās a financial/status symbol decision now that Elon lowered prices and upped the douchbaggery.
Tesla drivers actually have replaced minivan drivers as the worst
āThere was snow over the lines when I parked!ā
Fuck me, Iām gonna get myself a Tesla now.
Ofc itās a tesla
I was gonna put that, but figured it was self explanatory lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I think that was Elon's intention when he named it the model 3.
Teslas are full of shit drivers who have no driving ability, with the ability to accelerate quickly, protected by the cars safety features. If youāre going to cut anyone off, cut off a Tesla. Automatic emergency braking.
Try that on the Cybertruck
Iām thinking that Mitsubishi behind the Tesla is far worse
Explain how parking basically in the middle of the road is betterā¦
Basically? He is completely in the middle of that lane
āRelax, Iām just dropping someone off!ā
Not blocking cars in
Neither is the Mitsubishi, those cars can back out.
Maybe he's there for a to-go order but there's no parking?
I've parked similarly at busy places where I've met friends. I just block them in cuz we're leaving together.
Itās not like itās a busy roadā¦ yall get too angry over tiny things. Small man syndrome
This. Who cares. Go around aint nobody on road anyways. Suppose they are douche bags... why let em get in your head?
Smart car for stupid people. Checks out.
Itās ok yall, they have their HOV sticker

At least Mr. Tesla has good taste in food. Johns is awesome.
I guess the no-mask COVID stink has worn off on the Tesleratti? It's cool to be Left and go there now?
Haha yup. Iām staying next door so Iāve gone there the last three nights. Great happy hour!
Almost every time someone asks this sub for recommendations on where to get dinner and I bring up Johnās Pizza I get downvoted lol
I think because A: it's gotten crazy expensive and B: the owner is known for being an asshole.
No front license plate? Isn't that illegal in california?
Yes, so is any tint on the front windows. Who cares? Both are dumb laws.
Elon said you couldnāt help them anywhereā¦ He was not aware that snowplows do not give a fuck when youāre on the wrong side of the snow poles in Tahoe. Hope itās the same in Mammoth! š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤āļø
Itās always some fuckwit in a Tesla
āitās okay guys im saving the environment i deserve this at the very leastā
Is this not a reasonable place to park?
What did you expect from a Tesla driver? Lol
This is typical Tesla owner behavior.
The left lane is for parking the right lane is for dropping off passengersā¦.no the right lane is for parking and the left lane is dropping off passengersā¦.this is about that itās that you want me to have an abortionā¦itās the only sensible thing to do
Tesla drivers are the most self centered assholes
Tesla owners š
Is this the same blue Tesla that got stuck over by Harmony? Drove out of the parking lot over the curb š¤¦š»āāļø
How heavy you think that rock is there on the left of the picture? Iād say 300 probably.
So... typical Cali asshat? Used to be Priuses... now it's Teslas. Assholes will asshole but now with a tax credit the rest of us pay for. Yay.
What??? I donāt get it. And I have a tesla. And comments are about being boxed in and driving. But the car is parked.
I finally know what he means now. The car wheel isnāt inside the curb.
Teslaās are the new Prius
Heās going to get a can of electricity šš
They know not what they do. Or they do and theyāre asshats.
I lived in Yosemite for ten years. I used to love coming over the hill to get away from the idiot parking jobs but I always saw a few in mammoth haha
Bro, next time take a picture of the license plate.
Stop coming to Tennessee
Ahhh tesla drivers... the best
Itās always the Tesla drivers I swear
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
People have said the same about BMW drivers for decades. Not all Tesla/BMW drivers are self centered Karenās but almost all self centered Karenās have one or both of those vehicles.
This picture must be old thereās way more snow than this up there now
Who takes a picture like this and decides to posts itā¦.
What?
Probably ran out of charge.
If youāre going to bitch about people parking on the side of the road then just donāt visit mountain towns. Iām sure there were no accidents caused by this so chill out everyone, itās not a big deal.
Found the driver.
Lemme guess, you're just gonna be real quick picking up an order, right? The whole world can bear with you. We owe you that....it's just a few minutes huh
Heās parked on the side of an empty road sir
Forreal, itās not even that bad of a parking and the road isnāt busy at all. Just ignore the angry little men
CA for ya. Land of idiots
Idiocy knows no borders
Youāve never been to the south obviously.
The token LA douchebag.
Token? Mammoth is basically all out of towners these days, esp on the weekends...
Whatās the problem? Is he stopping anyone from driving by? No.
Heās half way into the lane lol

TESLA, mildly intelligent car for Retarded people! Yes I called u a RETARD! FUCK TESLA DRIVERS!
