Would they not merely be dromophobes, then?

Dromo= Road  Philo= lover of Phobe= person who fears... fun making up words

I've been trying for a while to come up with a legitimate term for the irrational fear of the right lane.

Dextroviaphobia is the best I've come up with so far.  Anything better?
Keep right except to pass.  Yes.  You.

It has to include the terms "Ohio" or "Buckeye" to be legitimate.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Something like three of my friends either appreciate or tolerate this interest.  Several more know me as the obnoxious guy that always wants to analyze their route somewhere.  That's about all I need, coupled with an understanding woman in my life who tells me "That picture has you written all over it" because it has a construction barrel and a parking garage in it.  Don't take things like that for granted -- a friend of mine found a woman who was the only person besides me to tolerate him driving around to photograph supermarkets and married her.  Chances are you won't find two who get it!

"Cheesehead" works.  Of course, there's always "Fuckeye" instead of "Buckeye".

Or New Jerseyan. Or Connecticutian. Or New Yorker, for that matter.

Those are more "love of the center lane" than "fear of the right lane."
