It's April 8th. I'm Corey with The Story. This is Dallas News Today, driven by AI. North Texas Roads got drivers heated about left lane campers, those folks who chill in the passing lane forever, blocking everyone else. T-X-D-O-T laying it down clear, left lane strictly for passing, not cruising. Texas law backs that up hard. If you're slower than the flow, slide over to the right lane pronto. On highways with speed limits at 75 miles per hour or higher, those signs ain't playing. Left lane for passing only. Drivers out here losing their minds over it, calling it a major slow down that backs up traffic for miles. One local straight vented, it slows everything to a crawl and makes zero sense on busy interstates. Break the rule by hogging that lane and it hits your wallet. T-X-D-O-T slaps fines up to $200 for messing with traffic flow. So next time you're out there, pass quick and merge right to keep the roads moving smooth y'all.
