One South Carolina lawmaker wants to increase the fine for drivers who go slowly in the left lane.
State Sen. Ross Turner said his 200-mile round trip commute from Greenville to Columbia helped convince him of the need for a South Carolina law similar to one that took effect last month in Oklahoma.
“I constantly got stuck behind people in the left lane and said, ‘That’s a great idea!”’ the Republican told The Post And Courier of Charleston.
