Nobody will defend the Camaro but many also hate the left lane vigilantes who think their job is to teach people the proper driving speed.

Is that why they do it? Maybe.

My theory was that they do it because the passing lane usually has fewer bumps and potholes.

If you tend to drive faster than traffic you constantly run into people who react aggressively to the fact that you closed in on them quickly. I understand being mad at tailgaters but just driving up fast and slowing with a reasonable distance between seems to anger some to the point where they do things like slow down to keep pace with the car next to them or brake when they don’t have to.

There are always the people cruising the fast lane not paying attention but for the people who actively try to keep you from getting around them and on your way I can’t think of any other motive.

Are you one of those bicyclists that rides out in the motor lane because the bicycle lane has pebbles in it?
