Cool. I'll check that website out. However,
the two above put me legal driving in the left
lane--since I am traveling at the speed that
the *majority* of drivers are driving in the
left hand lane, which makes *that* the flow
of traffic--with the people desiring to blast
passed all of us in the wrong; they are going
against the flow (at least in my opinion).
If that interpretation were really true, the slowest vehicle in the left
lane would set the flow of traffic (even if only ten mph) since all the
others behind that vehicle are now going the same speed. Clearly, there is
something wrong with that interpretation, isn't there? In reality, if there
are two or three vehicles behind you who want to go faster, you're impeding
the flow of traffic.
