    I now declare tomorrow as National Drive Slow in the Passing Lane Day.

    This new holiday shall begin by default on a Saturday, but will require planning for those who participate in the years to come as 4/13 will fall on business days.

    It apparently be no different than any other day for most people, so if someone could come up with a way to signal that we are celebrating the holiday that would be helpful.

    Excellent question! It is to raise awareness of how obstructive everyone who drives slow in the passing lane is on the remaining 364 days of the year..

    So did anyone celebrate 4/13?

    I never made it to a highway last Saturday so I couldn't.

    I think it will be required (for next year and beyond) that everyone who participates runs their emergency flashers so people can tell that participant are not as stupid as they look.

    Bump for relevance.
    We are doing this to save oil and protest the way our society has become haste-driven instead of love-driven, right?

    No, it is actually to raise awareness of how obstructive everyone who drives slow in the passing lane is on the remaining 364 days of the year..

    This year will be awesome! I never drove bad on purpose.

    it's still a bit early for this holiday. we're still in "only keep one lane plowed, and drive really slow in the plowed lane so everyone has to either follow at ridiculously slow speeds or try to pass in the legitimately dangerous lane" season.

    how about national support public transit day, so you don't have to bum a ride, or indenture yourself to the bank, for a pain in the ass with four wheels on the bottom.

    I hate those fuckers who go slow in the passing/fast lane. I'm glad in some states it's illegal. If I run into one in traffic, they are lucky if a ditch dive is the full extent. I will brake check hard, whip into the lane with signal so I'm legal and roll coal and fill it full of soot and to where you can't see shit.
    I can't tolerate idiot drivers, I drive the limit and have a clean record and drive a lot of miles everyday. Too many fucktards with no common sense out there anymore. Did some Orientals take over the dmv? That's what on the road in my area.
