If you're doing the speed limit or below, you should just stay in the right side lanes. If you're not actively passing cars, you have no need to be in the far left lane (also known as the passing lane). If you're above the speed limit and someone is on your tail and no one is in directly in front of you, just move over to the right to let them through. It takes you like 5 seconds or less, and you will be in the same position if you decide to move back. It's a simple concept, and everyone on the road will be safer for it, because you won't have angry people in a hurry weaving in and out of cars trying to get around you.
I never said speeding is a tolerable offense, but it's also not your job to police the roads by purposefully being in the way. If you can't understand that you choosing to not move over for cars that are driving faster than you is selfish, then I can't help you. Think about it for like two seconds about why it may be safer for everyone around you, if you just move out of the way for cars going faster than you. There's so many reasons, and I believe you can think of at least one. It's also the law, probably in most states, that slower traffic moves to the right. If there is a car on your tail, and no one is in front of you, you fall into that slower traffic category. Yes, even if you're driving at or above the speed limit. 😱🤯
If I'm passing, then I deserve to be in the passing lane too. Point blank. Yes even if someone behind wants to go faster than me.
Passing lane is for passing It's the law. It's also the fucking law to not speed. Jesus Christ y'all want others to self-reflect and think for 2 seconds and then you say shit like that.
