CA is alllllll over that discussion right now in our pics and video thread if you need to get .02 in. In summary: Someone said it very eloquently: 'Those aren't motorcyclists, those are assholes on motorcycles, there is a big difference'. As a motorcyclist, having watched the video, I have no beef with the SUV guy.

Washington State Patrol will ticket you for driving in the left lane as long as there is no other traffic and you are on an empty stretch of road and they are looking for an excuse to pull you over and write a ticket. All other times, most importantly, rush hour, you are expected to drive in the left lane doing 50 no matter what traffic around you is like. You are also legally required to merge onto the highway at no more than 35 MPH and if approaching 5 miles of your exit slow down to 40 MPH no matter what lane you are in. This is the Seattle/WA driving code.

Had this exact thing happen to me a few years ago. Not speeding, minding my own business in the middle lane, blinded by the sun behind me. Deal with it for a few minutes, then change lanes... SUN... speed up... SUN... speed up a little more, fuckin red' n' blues. Also got off with a warning, but also a very dickish: "I'm a COP, my lights are SUPPOSED TO BE BRIGHT" when I explained why I was speeding up. I'm a loving motorist, I'm supposed to be able to see the god drat road!

Saw a drunk driver wipe out on the freeway tonight, roughly half a mile after I decided I should call this guy in and about 2 miles after he first passed me. Got off the phone with state patrol and then he came up on someone, realized he was going to hit them I guess, over corrected and spun out ending up in the median. Manged to get going and pulled off the highway, I called state patrol back and followed him off but he quickly darted down teeny streets at a zillion miles per hour and I wasn't about to encourage that. Hope they get the fucker. I only caught two digits of the plate, but was able to give a good description at least. Dashcam was in the other vehicle; guess I need a second.
