That thing of just riding in the left lane is something I just can't understand. Just this morning I am heading to work, and there is a car going under the speed limit, just riding there beside another car, so you couldn't get past. She evidently was proving something, because she knew we were there (I had about 5 other guys behind me) but she just didn't really give a d***. Finally, the guy in the slow lane slowed a little and I was able to squeeze over and get past, and then I kind of pulled in front of her maybe a little too close with my rear end. She had to hit the brakes, and I would have thought she got the message, but as I looked in the rear view mirror for the next couple of miles she was still riding there.

I was always taught to pass and get the heck over, and most States have signs to the effect of slower traffic keep right. Evidently some States don't enforce or care about that. Ohio comes to mind as one where I have driven and noticed very few people move to the right, ever.

I think it is just common courtesy.
