“...pull over to allow people to pass.”

Many states are using this type of traffic law. In Washington state, If you are driving less than the maximum allowable, and there are seven cars in the immdiate spaces behind you, you are required to pull over and let them pass. Problem is I’ve never seen this enforced ever for a four wheeler and I’ve only heard about one ticket ever written for it. If they don’t enforce the law, it will just be the same as before they wasted the time and money making it. And if they don’t, then their only recourse is to lower the speed in given areas where this is observed making the faster driver more apt to gamble passing or over solid lines.

Why is there even a speed limit if it’s not only legal but advised by the law to go even faster in certain lanes?

If the guy behind you is following so close that you cannot safely pull ove what are you suppoed to do? I ran into this years ago on the coast highway on vacation in a camper. By the time you could identify a place to pull over and let the maniacs by it was not possible to do so without getting hit in the a$$.
