    I’m not surprised, it’s basically the same group that will argue that if you’re travelling at the speed limit in the inside lane that you are literally eats-babies evil because they want to go 20 over and you’re the asshole slowing them down.

      Failing to move back right to stick to a number arbitrarily chosen for esoteric fuel economy regulations predictably incites speeders behind you to make the passing situation 5x worse. Check out India sometime if you want to see the absolute worst version of this. Lorries do 50kmh at best in the inside line. Scooters do 35kmh in the shoulder. The “outer” lane does anywhere from 50kmh to 120kmh between lorries and scooters.
