so far as I know the info provided in the link below is accurate .... some surprised me a bit, most didn't .... should anyone be able to document otherwise, PLEASE post it

Just a quick search on the first one, handheld phone use while driving, I see nothing on the internet about a federal law for non commercial vehicles. The images are AI generated, so I assume the whole thing is.

I also did a quick search of the right lane restrictions on 6 lane highways. Saw nothing on that.

It wasn't an exhaustive search, so take it for what it's worth. Still, something like that should have popped up with the simplest of searches.

I don't place much faith in that video. Actually, I don't place any faith in that video.

thanks for the responses .... it will be interesting to see how much, if any, proves to be true

Watched half of the video. Did not like the pressure to subscribe and the information was vague. I don't trust these types of performances.

One of the new Federal LAWS was no driving in the right lane on multi-lane highways, except when you are turning. Since my state ONLY allows driving in the Left lane for passing on controlled access / limited access highways, this would mean that we would ALL be in the center lane. But, he did add that the right lane restrictions applied only during rush hour.

Commercial drivers have had that law for decades. The video never referenced any specific law so I think it’s bogus and I mean the entire video.

I remember watching one video saying planes were built so everyone was killed should the plane crash. This was done because injury accidents are harder to settle than death injuries. In God I trust. All others are subject to scrutiny.

Yup, I didn't subscribe.
I noticed he kept begging, plus he kept saying the new "laws" may not apply in every state. Nice dodge.

Well, here in NY, we've had a distracted driving law for a while. I've never heard of wait 200 feet before moving with emergency vehicles. We have a move over law if you see flashing anything along the highway. Surprisingly, that one gets obeyed a lot.
We have speed cameras. When he says they are for safety, not money, I started laughing. From hearing people talk about these, I have gathered it's a simple money grab. Say you have one trooper watching a construction zone on the interstate. He can grab one speeder going ten or more miles over the limit. Let's say two minutes to pull out and stop the violator, 5 to 10 minutes for the ticket and 2 to 5 minutes to get back in place. Even the most effective trooper can only get maybe five to seven in an hour. The speed camera gets EVERYONE going by in that hour over the set margin. EVERYONE gets a ticket. The laws are written so it's a civil penalty, no points, just a fine. If the registered owner, the one the ticket is addressed to, doesn't pay, they cannot register their vehicle until fines are taken care of. They send you a picture of your car and license plate in the mail and offer a link to a video. (I didn't get one, but have seen some others got) Just imagine how much money that camera makes in the one hour versus our lone trooper. Is it safer when people fly by, no, but it just made plenty of fine money. The signs are up and visible every-time I drive through those areas. An "officer" employed at the speed camera company reviews the ticket to make sure the plate is the same and speed is right then it's mailed. An upstate city recently added cameras to their school zones. Millions made in a month.
We have cameras on school buses around here. If you pass one illegally it takes pictures. A good idea I'd say. Each district decides.
As far as some of those other laws, never heard of most of it.
NY did just redefine the point system. It seems skewed to generate more fine money, go figure.

When I got to my brother's house on Christmas, I was asked about the traffic on my 45 minute ride along state roads. I said is was light and steady. I didn't hit a single red light.

A few days later, I got a ticket in the mail along with a photo of my car's license plate. Traffic was light, but there were still half a dozen cars around me, more ahead of me, more behind me. It was a smooth trip; we were all traveling at the same speed, and yeah. We all got a fifty dollar Christmas ticket for going thirteen miles per hour over the posted 35 mile per hour speed limit on a four lane state road. It seems more like revenue raising and less like traffic control to me. I'm not likely to make that same mistake twice, though.
