'Road Rage' Bill?

     I'm not sure I would call it a road rage bill, but at least it is something to get people out of the left lane that don't belong there.
     
     Not only is it annoying to be behind someone who is way under the speed limit for the road they are traveling, hence the 'road rage' tag, but it can be deadly! 


     Florida lawmakers have passed a bill that would make it illegal for drivers to go too slow in the left lane.     The bill, which is about to land on Gov. Rick Scott's desk, would make it illegal to go more than 10 mph under the speed limit if a driver is in the left-hand lane.     Proponents of the measure say it could help prevent road rage, but critics say the road - including the left-hand lane - belongs to everyone, not just drivers with a need for speed.     The lawmaker behind the ban, Sen. Jeff Brandes, R-St. Petersburg, said the law is long overdue.     "A number of other individuals were very concerned that, as they drive the state of Florida, that people are unnecessarily blocking the left-hand lane, and they want to make sure there's some mechanism to get them to move over. "     Scott is expected to sign the bill. If he does, anyone going more than 10 miles under the speed limit in the left-hand lane could get a ticket.
