This is where the rub is, if im far enough ahead going atleast the speed limit lets say 70 and im way in the clear to get over and actively taking it. Im not speeding up to beat the asshole who decides to do 80 to try and beat me.

What happens if i have to break because of the car in front of me? I look out for me and drive defensively especially in this area. Maybe you have to be there to understand?

If you are in a hurry get in the passing lane, its that simple.
