I mean as long as you’re not sitting in the left lane people should leave you alone
the only time you should be going the speed limit anywhere to the left of the furthest right lane is if you’re passing someone who’s going below the speed limit in the rightmost lane
Exactly.
Keep Right Except To Pass.
40 states have “Keep Right” laws. Many of them have “must yield” laws that require slower traffic to move to the right lane if faster traffic approaches from behind. A few states have exceptions where you can use the middle lane temporarily in areas where there is a lot of merging traffic.
There are a shocking number of people that cruise in the center lane slower than prevailing traffic. I don’t get that at all.

It’s a damned shame that they don’t enforce those laws. The highways would be a lot more pleasant if they did. We have habitual very slow drivers in the Seattle area who love to match pace with another slow driver in the right lane, and block the flow of traffic for miles on end, creating traffic jams and general congestion. From a lot of the comments I’ve seen on Reddit and Lemmy, they’re fully aware that they’re inconveniencing everyone, and get some sort of enjoyment and feeling of power from it.
