Texas Slow Poke Law fines drivers up to $200 for slow driving in left lane on multi-lane highways.

Texas drivers may face fines up to $200 for driving slower than the speed limit in the left lane of multi-lane highways, as stipulated by the Texas Slow Poke Law. The left lane is intended for passing only, and those who impede traffic violate this regulation, causing frustration for other motorists. The Texas Department of Transportation emphasizes the importance of allowing faster vehicles to pass to maintain smooth traffic flow.
