Were they by chance from Idaho? I’m always shocked at the Idaho drivers

This is exactly the problem: the speed you are going is actually irrelevant. The law says you MUST move over

That type of person causes more accidents than speeders do

Pretty sure he is referring to strained middle fingers- not traffic accidents

People speeding know they are breaking the law. This person is ignorant. Much

Did they ever come across someone in the left lane going slower than them? If

Someone posted on here a while ago (can't find it) that it actually isn't illegal and kosher in the State of Utah.

The law says you must yield to the right if you're being overtaken. So, yes, what the relative did was illegal

What does: "(7) A violation of Subsection (2), (3), or (6) is an infraction" mean? "(3)" is what you referenced. Curious
