The Right Lane

When driving, if your speed is slow, It’s always recommended That to the right’s where you should go, As road rules have intended. The left lane is for passing or If maybe you are speeding And middle lanes may help ensure That traffic flow’s succeeding. Among most drivers, there exists A tacit understanding That anyone who thus resists Will face some reprimanding. So driving slowly on the left May earn some bright lights flashing Or someone on your tail whose heft May threaten rear-end bashing. It isn’t nice, but most of us Would actually expect it And those affected rarely fuss But grudgingly accept it. Yet lately some aggressive fools Are tailing right lane drivers In violation of the rules, Which may leave no survivors. The attitude I see today, Which seems to be contagious, Is “Me, me, me – don’t block my way!” On roads, it is outrageous!
