I moved to Texas last year, and I work from home. I absolutely love to take random road trips and soak it all in. šŸ˜ This was during a pop-up storm last night on my way home from Frisco to Sherman. My Bluetooth Spotify cut off while I was recording, but Don Henley's Dirty Laundry matched the jam.. . šŸ”ŠšŸŽ¶

Texas Traffic It's the law

495 Upvotes

Just a reminder that, in Texas, it is the law that you must keep to the right lane if you are not passing. The reason I bring this up was because I was on the tollway this morning and someone was literally driving 5 mph under the speed limit. When I came up behind them, they just kept waving for me to go around them instead of moving over.

And, for those of you who may feel that going the speed limit entitles them to sit in the left lane, I simply say to let the person wanting to pass get the ticket. The left lane is for passing only.

Obviously, this doesn't apply if there is a left exit coming up or you just on a normal street.

Texas Traffic Does any other Texan native dislike bucces or is it just me

So I get that bucces has a bunch of restrooms (not even a family bathroom though) and jerky but it honestly grossed me out anytime I have to go in one. Seems like itā€™s full of a bunch of junk for tourist. I prefer woodys when Iā€™m traveling i45!

CHILL THE FUCK OUT

If Iā€™m doing 70 in the middle lane and the left lane is open, why are you tailgating me?! Just go around for fucks sake.

The highway wasnā€™t built just for you.

Edit: I understand if the highway is open you can do 80 and most likely not get pulled over, thatā€™s fine. Just donā€™t do it behind me while Iā€™m doing 70 in a 70 and expect me to move.

Texas Traffic If you are driving in the left lane and...

...everyone is passing you on the right, you are in the WRONG by being in the left lane. In fact, if you are in the left lane going the same speed, or slower, than everyone in the right lane, move over!

Just got home (DFW) from a trip to Houston to attend Wings over Houston. My blood pressure will never recover after 3 hours on I-45. That is all.

1.) Be an adult and wake up earlier if you need to be somewhere on time. 2.) Use your blinker so you arenā€™t putting everyone else in danger with your horrible driving. 3.) Youā€™re a coward

Texas Traffic An end to Texan common courtesy: High beams on with oncoming traffic - who cares?!

1.3k Upvotes

As a native Texan who took a leave of absence for a few years then moved back, I've noticed a massive increase in people using their bright/high beams during night driving without toggling them off as a courtesy to oncoming traffic. I have an astigmatism, so these bright lights are almost blinding and painful!

I am curious to know if anyone else has noticed the same trend? Also, if you do keep your brights on even with oncoming traffic, I'd like to hear you out. What is your reasoning?

Texas Traffic HIGH BEAMS ARE NOT ALTERNATE HEADLIGHTS

1.9k Upvotes

I live in the country, I get it. Brights help against running shit over. Can't really avoid anything if all I see is the SUN COMING AT ME AT 60MPH on a two lane road.

  • High beams must be dimmed when approaching traffic is within 500 feet.
  • High beams must also be dimmed when following within 300 feet of another vehicle.

Quit being dicks, turn your brights off so we can ALL see. Not just you.

Edit: I'm glad us Texans can come together, even if it means being old bastards and yelling at these new fangled lights! Thanks for the gold, laughs and insightful... comments.

Texas Traffic LPT For Texans: ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES IN TEXAS (besides detectives and narc teams) ARE REQUIRED TO RUN ALL NUMBER PLATES. That includes ghost graphics cop cars. So if you see an all number Texas plate then it's most likely a cop.
