Why do cars always past me when I'm driving?

You are doing it right. They are not.

Your speedometer my be reading slow, check your correct speed by GPS. Many phones can do this

Drive at the speed you want but please do not try to police other people's speed by making it difficult (and dangerous) to overtake you by closing up gaps etc. Don't forget, if someone overtaking you has an accident, there's a high chance you will become involved.

Most drivers are scoff laws, that's why. They don't fear getting caught. English Lesson: 1) they always pass you = correct 2) they always go past you = correct 3) they always past you = incorrect

There is a local road that is well traveled as it leads to a highway to a major city area. That road is a two lane road and designed a long long time ago to accommodate the traffic pattern of those times. Well, now that road is used by four times the number of vehicles that it was designed for and therefore, there can be heavy traffic. The speed limit was raised from 45 to 50 to keep traffic moving. But, those who are impatient do not even like the 50 mph limit. Every single time I drive on that road, at least 5 people pass me, even when I am going the speed limit. My advise to you is: IGNORE THEM and let them pass you. After all, you will be within feet of them at the next stop light. LOL.

You drive by the speed limit and keep yourself safe as well as legal, so you are a qualified driver, you won't be caught and fined.

They pass you because you are driving the speed limit. Most drivers go faster than the speed limit.

You're in the country, there's plenty of room and little traffic. Chill out.

You’re going too slow. Nobody drives the speed limit unless there’s a cop nearby. They can pass you if the lines are dashes. If they’re solid lines then it’s illegal to pass you).

Let them go and don't worry about it. They have somewhere to go and you don't.

You can quote traffic statutes & speed limits till Judgment Day but it's not going to win you any safe-driver trophies, because the garden variety driver is typically going to exceed the speed limit by a common average of 3 to 7 Mph and by strictly driving the speed limit yourself Your just getting in everybody else's Way. So, passing you while your moving at the speed limit isn't Illegal,, Unless a Cop happens to be clocking somebody while they do it & has a ticket-quota that he's desperate to catch-up with. However,,there's one thing you should consider while toodeling along at the frkn Speed Limit,,, A cop having a bad day might also just as easily give YOU a citation for creating a hazard by obstructing the flow of traffic & causing everybody to have to maneuver around you!!
