If I am already doing 70, dont expect me to pull over when the speed limit is 65
If you are not pasing, you are not to be in the left lane, no matter what your speed is. The left lane is for passing, not travel, regardless of how fast you are going.
Whatever grandpa! Get off the road. You’re impeding the flow of traffic.
I don’t know what states you folks are from, but it’s extreme arrogance to think that you can dictate the flow of traffic. In California during non rush hour the rule is you BETTER drive about 15-20 mph OVER the speed limit in the left hand lane, and even then you get over if someone comes up behind you hauling butt. Don’t they teach you this stuff in driving school?
You should move over anyway to:
1. Avoid the potential road rage of the person behind you
2. Let the guy who wants to speed even more than you
go past, and subsequently attract the attention of any
cops up ahead
Happy Motoring!

I do. So does the law in my state.
That is, unless you are actually passing someone.
It is actually common courtesy.
You said — “If I am already doing 70, dont expect me to pull over when the speed limit is 65”
Well, I certainly will, because I don’t want a long line of cars behind me getting ready to run up my rear end.... LOL...
And it does happen a lot, that way, too. So, I just get used to “getting out of the way” for those who want to go much faster than the speed limit.

The problem is that you just don’t want someone ramming you in the rear end, just because they were too close and you had to quickly slow down (for example, someone pulls into the left lane just as you’re about ready to go past them). And if you do slam on your brakes, then “bam” — he’s hit you. So, not wanting to have body repairs and not wanting to delay whatever driving trip that I’m on — I try to avoid situations that can cause accidents to happen, even if it’s the other guy that causes the accident...

Come on Race.... we both live in CT and we both know that even the friggin state patrol drive 80 on I95.
You ride yourself in the left lane at 70 and you can certainly expect to see the front end of my SSR shoved up your @ss.
Show some simply courtesy and move it over. The left lane is for PASSING
