lol, I never follow this "rule". Little about driving a Yaris can amuse me more than seeing the mad as hell drivers in the rear view, while I cruise along minding my own business in the left lane. Its not that I'm necessarily going that slow; most drivers just act as assholes when they see a small car in the left lane.

To the OP, I thought that Canadian Ontario drivers were bad until two weeks ago when i crossed the NH MA state line, its like a all these people near Boston and its burbs inhaled the same drugs: 4 lane highway and everyone is bumper to bumper in the left lane going 60 while the rest of the lanes are clear and open , can someone please explain this to me is this like a new game who can sue someone faster for rear-ending each other?
i honestly didn't mind driving around the outskirts of Boston (the city itself was torture though). the place i found the craziest was PA. i was going 80-85 in a 65 and still being passed regularly. i was glad to get back on ny soil so i could drive like i normally do and not get run over haha. But to the OP, I wish more people followed the rules. we have some 3 lane 55mph roads here in rochester and there is always that 1 car that won't go over 58 in the left lane and i feel like a real dick passing people in the right lane.

then you are definitely someone who deserves a ticket.

the left lane is for overtaking. driving slow in it in most states is illegal.

It's just common courtesy and keeps traffic flowing. If you sit in the left lane going slow it basically clogs the whole flipping road up.
Common Courtesy died a long time ago, people are just too stupid.

Nah, we just need to make driving tests a ton harder, and make it so that you have to pass one every time you need to get a new license.

AMEN!!! In fact, how do you know who that person behind you is? Just because they are not in a police vehicle does not mean they can't pull you over and ticket you for aggressive driving.
