merge into slower traffic, screw the guy behind me that wants to go 90. If it's not inconvenient for me to get over, I get over, but there's no rule that says you have to enable somebody speeding.

as soon as there is an opening, you get over. That's the rule.

I thought the rule is when you are no longer passing

Is that the rule, or the "rule"?

if you're passing someone. But if the next car you'll be passing is 100 yards

That isn't the law

right - the 100 yard gap is just an example. Never meant to imply it's law

100 yard gap is a semi-important detail there.

that's entirely reasonable

Exactly my point. Thank you for wording it much better.

Same, i'd rather them be a little inconvenienced than me. Is that so bad?

It doesn't apply to over-the-speed-limit speeds. You think they'd pass a law

It is more dangerous to camp out in the left lane than speed

Not so much inaccurate as incomplete and not apparently terribly bright

it applies to all speeds, the speed limit has nothing to do with it

if moving to the right means you have to merge into slower traffic, that would

I only drive in the passing lane and never go over 65.

It all depends on when the next reasonable opportunity to get over is
