I certainly agree with K. Golding about drivers who don’t want to pass leaving no room for those that do, but she, and many others, seem unaware of another point.

She says, “There are plenty of safe passing zones, as long as you are only passing one or two cars…”

As I found out in traffic school, it doesn’t matter if it’s safe or not, in Oregon it is illegal to pass more than one car at a time.
