“Flash to pass?” Do they not have turn signals in the Acela cooridor?

The problem is hardly anybody knows anymore so all you end up doing is pissing off the person in front of you... If it were a more widely acknowledged procedure it would be more useful. Better to just find a safe space and get past them as quickly as possible. On the flip side, I hate it when folks who clearly want around me never pass even though I give them all sorts of opportunity to do so and just sit on my butt. Hello Mcfly, grow a pair and go around me.

I have asked this question before, but not about two-laners. Just use your damn signal on those. Flash to pass specifically means “Get outta my way!”

God I hate it when people do that. Riding my ass for ages until a passing zone comes up, I move right for them aaaand they don’t pass. Continue tailgating. Useless people.

I passed 5 semis carrying monster trucks on a two lane road, it’s not hard.

Ohio used to have a law requiring that you honk your horn as you pass someone.
Literally nobody did that.

Ahhhhh, Paradise. So many childhood days spent on the school’s ancient carousel.

Paradise used to have a nice cafe etc.. when I was a kid. Not much there now. I grew up in Arlee/Missoula.

Amazing scenery, though. The drive there from Missoula is one of my favorites ever.

I stepped out my dads Z on that tight corner just before the turn off to Quins. Gave my dad a code brown.

I’m always tempted to try coaxing a little liftoff oversteer on the twisty part next to the river just before Paradise, but someone always comes around one of the blind corners at the very last moment. Probably wouldn’t work anyway because I’m a terrible driver and I’d end up in the Clark Fork.

You know what’s not insane? Not making five figures a month (or more) talking about quirks and features. Let everyone else be not-insane.

Hmm, I only flash when someone is camping in the left lane and having been in Colorado over the weekend was surprisingly a lot.
