But yeah, those who pull into the center double turn lane...or drive for hundreds of feet in there...grind my gears!

Nobody said anything about a mile. If there are 10 cars in a line, why do you have to fly up in front and then force your way in and make 10 cars slow down for your selfish a** instead of getting in line where there is plenty of room? That is not slowing down traffic except for the one guy who thinks he's more important than everyone else.

Someone mentioned the sign a mile back...but anyway...yeah...the guys that speed up to pass, I agree, are aholes.
