In Reply To	How is it illegal to go the speed limit in the left lane? (n/m) posted by dpjax on May 03, 2005 at 12:08 PM
Message	"And twenty-plus years of dumbed-down, politicized "driver's education" and "safety" campaigns had effectively propagandized the populace into believing there was only one cardinal sin -- 'speeding.'" and "It will take time for the facts about the danger of left lane hogging to sink into the general consciousness -- the consequence of 20-plus years of neglect and outright disinformation peddled by know-nothing "safety" advocates." It appears you have been a victim of said disinformation... Also, the article explains in detail the risks of cruising in the left lane and why it's illegal.
