People passing me on the right
<p>When turning onto my driveway from a road (when the driveway is on the left so I have to wait for an opening in the oncoming traffic lane), I often have to stop in the road for at least a few seconds, sometimes about to thirty seconds. Usually, if anyone is behind me, they pass me on the right. They go off the road to do this, and get really close to my vehicle, so it makes me really nervous. Are they doing anything illegal, and if so, would ODOT be likely to put up a &quot;do not pass on right&quot; sign on my request?</p>

<p>Yes, passing you on the shoulder is illegal, but no, the ODOT is not going to put up a sign for you to say what is already unlawful.</p>
