They actually forget that they shouldn’t be there unless they are passing?

They literally never even glance to see if there are cars behind them.

(The mirror isn’t even adjusted for them.)

All three. And sometimes these driver qualify for more than one reason.

It's not uncommon for me to make the best time in the far right hand lane, especially where the turnpike is 3 lanes.

Some do not adjust mirrors and never look in mirrors and never look back by turning their heads. What is behind them they do not consider important nor their problem. What is behind them is someone else’s problem. Selfish or dim witted “simple folk.”

Sometimes because the heavier trucks mostly stay in the right hand lane, the right hand lane is beat to heck and really bumpy.

Is the high way left lane not capped at around 65 or 70mph? I casually go 60 in the right lane. Too poor to afford a car that can go faster than that.

I think it's a matter of using both lanes to travel. A lot of people don't obey the rules of the road. For example, it's the same posted speed in all lanes. I wonder if all those people breaking the law by speeding by me truly follow the left-hand law and get over ever?

​

You have to remember that if they are passing someone driving slower in the right lane, their passing speed might not be the same speed you're crusing at. So, maybe, the speeding driver should readjust and follow the posted speed.

Unaware. Also because they moved to the left lane to help with someone merging, but they are not comfortable doing 80 and cannot merge back to the slow lane in a timely fashion? I vote unaware as my first guess tho.

As a resident along a major (in this area anyway) 4 lane highway, I can extend a small allowance for anyone who needs to make a left somewhere in the near future, but it's almost never that.

Some people think that whatever speed they want to drive should be how everyone else drives. When that speed is 65+ it's generally not an issue in the left lane. However, when they think that 5+ the speed limit in a 40 mph zone and all the sudden become a gatekeeper complaining about the guy riding their bumper when they literally just did the same thing to the dude doing 40 mph half a mile down the road, I get annoyed.

My advice to my wife and my son as he starts driving has always been, stay out of the passing lane unless you're passing. If you aren't gunning it to get passed whoever is in the right lane (or as mentioned earlier, turning etc) you really don't have any reason to be in the left lane.

My Heaven includes highways where everyone just drives the same speed in the right lane and the left lane is empty.

Equally annoying are drivers in the left lane who stay in your blind spot. Either pass me or don't.

Some are deep in thought about their first time to St. John, how to help their distressed daughter, or how to prevent their dog from biting their toddler.

Because they feel entitled. And for a conversation I had with someone who does it. “Because if the Speed limit is 55, and I am going 55 in th e left lane, you don’t need me to pull over” They are also people who like to try to impose their will and beliefs on others. They want to be in charge. That…. And some are just stupid.
