Highway Driving

[raydeon]

I lived in Germany and survived their Autobahns. Including the "racetrack", HW 31 (from around Duisburg along the Dutch border to the North) at 260+ km/h. These are the basic rules:
1) Never stay in the left lane. Doesn't matter how fast you are, you are never fast enough. (When I drove 260, I was passed by Lambo Diablo that went at least 320.)
2) Never pass on the right hand side.
3) If you cannot follow these two simple rules, don't even think of going to HW.

Is this so freaking difficult to understand?

You also mentioned acceleration when merging and breaking when taking of. Can't believe some idiots out there!

As a frequent user of the autobahns I fully agree with you smiley27.
Left lane is for passing only. As soon as you pass, you get back in the right lane, or the middle lane as the case may be.
And never, never pass on the right.
Drivers in Germany (or other European countries) do not seem to have a problem with that. Why can't Canadian drivers understand that?
