Plenty of room for slower drivers

re: "Slow down, but be sure not to get in the way," June 13.

What Jason Rekker does not seem to realize is that there are three lanes.

A lot of the times I normally drive in the center lane to allow drivers to get off at the next exit. But when there are only two lanes I drive in the right lane at the speed limit and have the gas guzzlers drive right up my rear end because the other gas guzzlers are in the passing lane doing 120 km/h or better.

Trucks are no better they drive right up your rear end in the right lane so you get over so they can go on, but then it is hard to get into the right lane again because of the gas guzzlers.

By the way I never said I was always right sometimes I have to speed up to pass somebody driving 95 km/h.
