You may think you're doing a good thing, but you're not. I suppose you meant "stay right beside somebody in the passing lane to make it difficult to pass that person on the right"? If that's what you do and you stay in formation with someone in the fast lane and force traffic to tailgate and pile up behind the two of you, then you are doing a boneheaded thing and you are the problem. Unless you're a cop it's not your job to enforce ANYTHING, period.

We disagree. I think that, by preventing people from passing on the right, I'm contributing to safety.
Even if I'm wrong, I'm subjecting myself to danger for the sake of a principle. Is that wrong?

Unless you're a cop it's not your job to enforce ANYTHING, period. The fact that something may not be my job doesn't mean that it is not my duty. Are you one of those people who think that anything the police do not prevent, people have a right to do, and that any non-policeman who complains about a violation is a mere busybody? Don't you see how this exclusive reliance on the law is precisely our society's problem?
