Actually the reason the laws are being passed is to make the freeways safer by stopping these dangerous drivers from wreaking havoc with traffic flow, since the strange individuals causing the problem are incapable of controlling their impulse to block off traffic.
Watch them when you see one, they see the havoc they are causing, they hear the horns, see the other drivers trying to get around them, but look at how the weirdos stare straight ahead and pretend they don’t see anything.
It causes danger in the slower lanes as the faster flow of traffic has to mix with the slower lanes looking for avenues to bypass the weirdo.
Look at their responses on this thread, they want to punish people, it doesn’t even occur to them that we use that lane only for passing, instead they describe everyone as speeders, trouble makers, or people who don’t wake up early enough, or people that they don’t like (strangers?), not a one of them acknowledges that the passing lane should not be used for just cruising along.
It is all about taking a pound of flesh rather than just observing good driving.
