People who are too dense to understand the simple fact that the posted speed limit applies to all lanes.

You are an unsafe driver.

If traffic conditions are such that people are moving faster than the limit, you, by insisting on driving at a slower speed while in the left lanes, are a traffic hazard.

Not talking law or legality. Just safety. By sitting there blocking others, you force them into unneeded lane changes and passing maneuvers, thus increasing the risk of going down the road.

You are an unsafe driver.

Because I obey traffic laws, I am unsafe? Uh huh.

If traffic conditions are such that people are moving faster than the limit,

Thereby, breaking the law

you, by insisting on driving at a slower speed while in the left lanes, are a traffic hazard.

I never insist on driving at a slower speed in the left lanes. Never said I did.

Not talking law or legality.

Because you can't, in this case.

Just safety. By sitting there blocking others, you force them into unneeded lane changes and passing maneuvers, thus increasing the risk of going down the road.

Again, I never said that I sit and block the left lane, thereby forcing speeders who willfully endanger the lives of others to change lanes.

When doing the speed limit, I stay in the right lane.
