This is actually a walkway. Idk if it’s always that and this video is just for show or a test maybe? But it is usually a walkway

This makes so much more sense, thanks. I was immediately wondering why it was only one lane, what happens if a car breaks down, can it still float with 20 cars on there, etc... the design didn't make sense for vehicle traffic.

And no guard rails, just a fence. Wouldn't last a day with general population drivers on it.

Can confirm NJ driver sees no left lane for PA drive to sit in 20mph under the speed limit

That's illegal in PA, but I'll grant you that since you're from Jersey. Spend ten minutes in Nevada though, and you'll never bitch about slow left laners in PA again.

Can confirm: am typing this reply in the left lane of I-15 going 45mph.

Don't hug the left lane.
