It's not ok for either to pass each other in the hov lane... I was on the right side of the lane (position 1 if you will) and he passed me on my right, forcing me over to the left... it's only one lane...

I'm a big fan of the "ride faster to stay alive" philosophy of riding...but I know that'll getcha fined in the Dallas HOV lanes.

Its more satisfying to knock their mirror off when they pass you though!

This was on 35 near 635, I was doing more than the speed limit before he "appeared" in the HOV lane behind me. Then came hauling ass up to me, slightly moved over and passed me...

I had an asshole in a Camry try to pass me on the left shoulder while I was in the leftlane of I-35W near alliance...I was doing what Ed said and slowing down while he refused to get off my ass. I even motioned to him nicely to back off.

He was about a foot from me so I reached out and knocked his mirror off before lanesplitting to an open spot and taking the next exit.

I fucking hate people.

If you live in a lane splitting state... yes.

But cars are never allowed to split lanes.

Glad you're alright, Lucky.
