Hi! That happens to me at this one particular stretch of highway all the time. No passing for miles, and slow guy in front goes slow....then we get to the 2 lane area and he speeds way up! Happens all the time. Funny thing is, I don’t think any of these drivers are trying to be wise guys, or rude, they just don’t realize that they change speeds dramatically when the 2 lanes become available.

On our Interstates (between Milwaukee and Madison) the dangerous “slow in the fast lane” driver who causes a back up of traffic, is my other peeve. This driver is just plain dangerous. Camps out in the fast lane doing less than the speed limit. Others pass that car in the right lane since slow guy won’t leave the fast lane.

On the Highway we use, the Speed Limit is 70, and a Lot of the Slow Drivers only go 45-55 Miles an Hour.
By the Time we've Traveled for a Half an Hour, a Train of Cars has Inevitably Developed,
With the Slow Driver as the "Engine," Lol, Leading a Tightly-Grouped Line of Unwilling Followers.
I've Seen Some of the Drivers that are Trapped behind the Slow Ones do Dangerous Things,
Like Trying to Pass them when they can't See if the the Way Ahead is Clear or not.

I Pray there are Never Any Wrecks on our Road. :(
