UHP ticketing left lane drivers for hold up traffic

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 News) – Speeding can get you a ticket, but in a strange twist so can going the speed limit.

Utah Highway Patrol troopers are ticketing left land drivers who don’t pull out of the way of faster moving cars-- even if they’re speeding.

The law was passed about five years ago, but UHP is renewing a push to enforce this law.

The Utah Department of Transportation is putting up about 30 signs to warn drivers to obey this law.

Troopers can ticket drivers between $50 and $90 for breaking this law.
