These so called "professional" drivers need to have their licenses revoked.

I really wish we had laws here like Europe where they are required to stay in the right most lane, and can only pass if they will not impede other traffic. I'm sure they are also required to have some amount of driver training, unlike the monkeys they let drive here.

B.C.’s new law to penalize drivers who clog up traffic in a left-hand lane of a multi-lane highway came into effect Friday. “Slow drivers camping out in that left-hand lane not only cause frustration for other drivers, but they cause accidents,” said Transportation Minister Todd Stone.

.....

• The penalties are among the stiffest in Canada. The fine for hogging the left lane is $167, and three driver penalty points. ICBC charges you a penalty point premium on your insurance if you get more than three penalty points in one year.
