I'm always amazed in the midwest what a difference there is between traffic in states that have (and actually enforce!) a "get out of the left lane" law vs states that don't.
I-80 across the eastern half of Iowa in particular is exhausting to drive on, because a lot of people camp in the left lane and clog up traffic. That leads to desperate and aggressive driving to get around these silly bottlenecks, which kills fuel efficiency and makes the roads more dangerous.

Those laws are unAmerican: they're about people doing what's best for the common good, instead of being selfish, and that's completely contrary to American ethics and mindset. That's why Americans generally hate those "keep right except to pass" signs and ignore them.
- lostapathy 4y agoI know you're trolling, but those keep right except to pass laws are actually more common in right-leaning states with a lot of empty space. Which kinda undermines your trolling.
