But somehow the loudest complaints about “slow” left lane drivers always seem to come from speeders who are pissed off that the person in front of them in the “passing” lane is only going 10-15 miles over the speed limit, thus preventing pissy driver from exceeding the speed limit by an even greater margin. These same pissy drivers do not use the left lane as a “passing” lane either. They drive exclusively in the left lane, except for brief passing/weaving swoops of a few seconds at a time through the right lane, in order to zip by aforementioned left lane drivers who are already going 10-15 over the speed limit.

You make it sound soo wrong, LOL.

It is expected that traffic in the left lane moves faster than other traffic. If someone wants to do the speed limit, they ought to be in the right-hand lane.

If I was in the left lane at ten over and someone came up behind me going obviously faster, I’m getting over at the first and safest possible time. I do not feel that I have a God given right to impede the flow of traffic. Nor is it my responsibility to “hold him up” like some kind of self appointed traffic cop.

You say that like it is a problem.
