Do not drive in the yellow lanes during peak time traffic

The yellow lane is only for emergency breakdowns or medical emergencies.

A great number of motorists think that it is perfectly fine to drive in the yellow lanes during peak time traffic.

I personally feel so unsafe when drivers do this as I feel that we all have to wait our turn and also drive safely.

An accident can happen so fast and those drivers are putting others in danger.

Worst of all is that they are driving in the lane that emergency services use to get to accidents. The yellow lane is only for emergency breakdowns or medical emergencies or when you need to rush to the hospital.

So why do motorists think that they can just break the rules? We all have to wait. It frustrates me because I will also see taxi drivers breaking the road rules in front of law enforcement and nothing is being done.
