Hi guys,

I’m a new driver here(US) but I have had experience from when I was 12 in India (I’m 16 now). I normally go fine on local roads. The way I drive on the highway has me questioning this.

Here’s how I drive:

I get into the left-most lane

I do at least 70 mph (depends on the flow of traffic if I go faster or slower) (I will try to flash my lights first someone did that to me and I moved over)

I’ll pass on the right if the person in front is going slow and holding up the traffic behind them (me and other cars)

I change lanes more than the average person (I check the rearview mirror, side mirror, and my blind spot every time I switch)

If there is no one in front of me I speed up to 80 or 90 mph and I catch up to the next group of cars

This is a general list of how I drive on the highway. Is this being reckless?

    you’re fine. maybe dont flash the brights because there are idiots with guns out there. if i pass on the fight i will abruptly get back over the left lane (once its safe) to try and send them a message of “hey left lane is for passing buddy, doesn’t matter if you’re doing 80, move over”
