    No it’s efficiency and common sense. If people behind you want to pass and you have space to move out of the passing lane move. Then they can go the speed they want to go and you can go the speed you want to go. What you’re saying is they should have to go the speed you want to go, why?

      There’s lots of this sentiment on this platform, and the answer is simple, they’re power hungry little trolls with nothing better going on in their lives than inconveniencing other people on the freeway so that they can feel some measure of control over another person.

        Explain to me, under what circumstances, you need to go more than 10 mph over the speed limit. Don’t pull “my wife is in labor” or “I severed my hand” or some nonsense, if a car is coming up and making it obvious they’re in distress, fine, that’s one thing.

        But literally no other justification exists other than “hur dur I want go fast vroom vroom.” You’re endangering the lives of everyone around you because you feel everyone should make way for you. It’s entitlement, and it’s reckless driving.

          Breaking the law, which brings us back around to entitlement. It is not my responsibility to enable anyones reckless driving. If I am no longer passing someone I will happily get over, but until then you all can slow your impatient ass’s down and wait for once in your life. I’d much rather you be behind me than in front when you inevitably get into an accident.

      Because you’re not entitled to go the speed you want to go. If there’s nineteen cars behind you and the car in front is only going half a mile an hour faster than the people they’re passing… sure. But if you’re one car and they’re one car, you are not entitled to go any faster than they are. They’re entitled to go the speed they want… because they got their first. You want to go faster? Wait your fucking turn.

      Don’t argue with traffic. They like being part of something. 🤣

      It’s more efficient to switch lanes less often than it is to speed. Myth busters covered this. People speeding in the left lane are the ones causing problems. Take some anxiety medication if you can’t deal with it.
