No Truck lanes in the West. Apparently, you never leave town, and your certainly not a truck driver or drive an RV, or pull a race trailer. Almost all mountain passes have truck lanes, and I-5 has them even on low rises where a truck would slow. The far right lane is the slow/truck lane anywhere, pass on the left.

Going faster to save lives, is a specious argument, especially in a truck lane. Pay attention when your driving, that is your responsibility.

Trucks in Oregon are required to drive at 55MPH, and it is enforced. I live in Grants Pass, Oregon with a lot of mountain passes, North and South, all have truck lanes.

Many trucking companies that own and fuel their own trucks, are now requiring drivers to drive at 55 MPH, even when the legal truck speed, is higher. Saves fuel and equipment..and is safer, which the insurance companies recognize with lower rates

If I'm on a two lane road and traffic is backing up, I pull over at the nearest opportunity, it's courteous, and the law.

Apparently you don't have much consideration for your 'Kids' or grand kids with your self serving polluting attitude.
