Yesterday while driving 65 mph in the #2 lane (middle of three lanes) on northbound California Highway #101 (Ventura Freeway). I was passed on the right by a late model Tuscany Motorhome.
NEWS FLASH! THAT WAS VERY UNSAFE AMATEUR MOVE!
There are few if any good reasons for passing on the right. In the scenario yesterday there were at least three reasons not to make a pass of another vehicle on the right...
1. The Motorhome you are passing is traveling at the posted maximum speed.
2. There is a lane on the left that is open to pass vehicles in.
3. You’re driving a Motorhome not a car.
I watched this person drive their Motorhome for several mike (Rincon to Goleta) as if it were a car not a 30’+ Motorhome. This person was driving over the speed limit, making numerous lane changes, tailgating other vehicles. All this unsafe driving and risk taking for what? Several miles after we were passed on the right by this person they were not any closer to their destination then we were as you can see in the attached photo taken in Santa Barbara...
PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY!
