"Keep right except to pass" is not a law in Alberta (nor one in Canada, I believe). There is only "Slower vehicles keep right" which suggests that vehicles moving slower than the speed limit or natural flow of traffic should stay to the right. Duffman was neither of these things.

All of you folks need to understand: "keep right except to pass" is not a rule nor is it required unless clearly marked on Alberta roads. Duffman did absolutely nothing wrong.
You folks? The ones doing it properly? The ones participating in a system that works?

How about you folks learn how to drive? Is it really necessary to make a law for everything? Would you prefer if an RCMP on a bad day could give you a ticket for not moving over to the right lane fast enough? Isn't it a bit silly that we need to "make it a law" so that the wannabe cops will adhere to the rules of the road?

Your attitude (just like all the ones before that I've argued with) is pretty frustrating. I mean, it's not against the law to fart in an elevator, either. But guess what? It's a dick move. I simply don't understand why people like to be a-holes. Why? Why is it fun to piss other people off while driving? People like you are the reason why there's road rage. "It's not illegal" is the stupidest excuse I've ever heard.
