Granted that I'm retired and not in any particular hurry, but I plan my overnight stops for 300 to 350 miles per day, so I set my speed control 5 MPH below the posted max speed, stay in the right lane, and let everyone pass me, including trucks.
I drive a 'C' and pull a Jeep 'toad', so its difficult to tell when I'm completely clear of a vehicle that I pass.
I also stop at highway patrol stations located on or near state lines. It gives me time to stretch my legs, help fill their black tanks instead of mine, and see if there are any "surprises" ahead of me. They usually know about wrecks or tie ups.
