If you abide by those signs, and do the right thing, without fail the nuts will come along side and force you to slow or stop in that turnout lane. I believe it is a local sport. I quit moving over.
BTW it is the law to pull over if more than 4 vehicles are behind you. One I generally do if I see the turnout coming up is hit my signal so the cars behind know I am pulling over which gives them a chance to get ready to speed up and pass.
Personally I liked the 49 between Lotus and the 50 in my convertible but would not have liked driving the motorhome through there.
I have lost that need for challenges I had when I was younger. I have a tendency to take the easier route when possible.
