re: Is the left lane driving issue getting worse?

Maybe there’s a line of cars in the left lane who are going faster than the folks in the right lane, and you should just get in line with the rest of them.

This is not what op is talking about...but even then, that front car (if they were situationally aware) would see and know that clearly every car behind them wants to go faster, so even if they are going faster than every car in the right lane...they should move to the right lane for a bit when there is a gap for them to cruise at same speed for a while. Left lane is the passing lane, not cruising lane. Just because you're moving faster than everyone else in the right doesn't mean you're considered as constantly passing. If every car did and followed the path that I described, traffic problems would drastically reduce. It's the assholes that think as long as they're going faster than everyone in the right lane, they're good to sit in the left and cruise...wrong
