Road rage has become quite the problem. People get shot for it, ran off the road, etc... Not saying that it is ok or right to do that, however it happens. Being in the right, yet being dead doesn't really help...
There will always be speeders. Even in London with cameras everywhere... You are not going to stop it by appointing yourself as a private citizen highway police...
A person habitually riding in the left lanes directly and indirectly causes problems as you don't or can't know the reason that someone is in a hurry... They cause accidents because they basically force people to take chances to get around them... Self-centered, selfish people? Perhaps...
I have a friend that intentionally gets in the left lane and goes the exact speed limit because he says that he pays taxes and has a right to. I told him to look in the mirror.

I pass and get over. If someone is coming up behind me at a fast rate, "I" get out of "their" way. You never know what or why they are doing it. Why be a buttho!e, let them go...
