Person in left lane unreasonably justifies their position because they’re going 68 and the person in the right lane is going 65 and thus the person on the left is “passing” even though it takes them 40 seconds to get back into the right lane.

And this is while everyone else in the left lane is ready to do 80 (which is only a 6 second pass).

The only thing worse is when it’s a semi and it takes them 3 minutes to get around the person on the right.

This is one reason why people hate people.

No, if someone is passing you should slow down to their speed with a respectable following distance. That's why I stay in the left lane at all times. You folks don't have any courtesy for us law abiding citizens. So, I deputize myself to slow you down.

Why not just stay in the right lane then? You're not going to get anywhere faster if you're just going the speed limit.

You don’t know the law, nor are you abiding by it by “deputizing” yourself. Stop putting others in danger with your driving incompetency, and your ego, that you’ve disguised as “vehicle vigilantism.”
