The left lane is for passing only with 1 exception THIS IS LAW HERE.
"People aren't aware that the left lane is now used primarily for passing only," said OHP Trooper David McCutcheon. On November 1, 2010, Oklahoma State Law 11309 went into effect. It states that on a four lane highway drivers are no longer allowed to disrupt the normal flow of traffic by driving in the left-hand lane. Motorists must now drive in the right lane, and only use the left lane for passing, with one exception. If you see an emergency vehicle on the shoulder you need to pull to the left lane OR slow down until you pass it. According to the O.H.P the new law was enacted to clear the way for first responders during an emergency and cut down on the number of road rage incidents among drivers.
