I don’t think anyone is arguing you should move over for somebody speeding.

But, if you are going 55 in the left lane when 10 cars behind you are going 65 in a 70 so they don’t hit you, move over.

You are impeding traffic, and those people need to be ticketed for not using the right lane as slower-moving.

Actually, a lot of us are. Blocking a speeder is dangerous. Period. It is also against the law in many (if not most) states.

“I don’t think anyone is arguing you should move over for somebody speeding.”

Yes, we are. I, like most people on the highway, am usually going over the speed limit - in the right hand lane. When I encounter cars going slower than me, I use the left hand lane to pass and then get back in the right hand lane. It’s not complicated. Tooling along in the left hand lane for no particular reason is just plain lazy driving.
