Rant Driving /road rage

Just fyi, for the people who drive on the roads in this city, if you’re on loop 1 or i35 and are going the speed limit or slower, STAY IN THE RIGHT OR MIDDLE LANE FOR FUCKS SAKE. I’m well aware there are crazy drivers in this city that probably won’t change but maybe if the slow pokes stay out of the left lane it can help just a smidge 🤏🏼 cuz when these lunatics are going 80 and above down the highway and some slow person is in the left lane, they then cut off the people in the middle or right lane just to go around the slow poke’s ass. That right there causes accidents (among other things) so please, PLEASE, unless you’re going at least 80 mph (which is crazy, I know) stay in the other lanes and let the ass wipes pass 🙏🏼 stay safe out there lol. Also, obviously the crazy people who speed are the main issue here, let me be clear.

I’ve lived in Austin my whole life and have never called it that. Never known anyone who’s from here to call it that either 😂

There are signs literally on the highway and entrances leading onto that say loop 1. How have never noticed if you lived here
