If everyone drove in the right lane so as not to block the speeders, then in effect, we would only have one lane to carry most of the traffic. I don't see anything wrong with two cars side by side at, say, 65-70 mph.

Swapping back and forth to gain a car length or two, especially on the interstate, is far more dangerous than using all lanes.

I don't know how many times that I have witnessed an impatient driver change lanes dangerously maybe 10 times in five miles only to end up at the same light I do later.

It all comes from the same problem we have with many other things: Selfishness along with some ignorance.
