[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest question here: what't the big deal with going the speed limit in the left lane?  I learned how to drive in a place where there isn't really any concept of "passing lanes."  Is driving fast/passing in the left lane safer for everyone?  It just seems to strange to me.[/quote]

Have you read this whole thread? Do that and watch the YouTube video someone linked. All will be explained to you.[/quote]

If you are following the speed limit (or the speed of traffic), why do you need to pass other cars? I just don't understand the whole point of passing except in rural areas where maybe you want to pass a very slow truck on a 2-lane road.  Why do you need to pass in an built-up area?[/quote]

If you don’t understand that some cars may want to go faster than other cars on a highway with multiple lanes I’m not sure you should be driving at all. And definitely not in any left lane anywhere.[/quote]

We don't yet have self-driving cars, so no car wants to go faster than any other car anywhere. Some drivers certainly want to go faster than other drivers. Some of those drivers want to go faster than the law allows.[/quote]
