Legal to tow in freeway left lane?
I often tow our TT in the left lane on a multi-lane freeway (3 or more lans) when the traffic in the right lanes is just way too slow or there are a lot of drivers changing lanes in congested areas. ...

If you are crossing central Indiana east west or north south you will most likely end up on the I-465 loop around Indy. It has the classic right lanes that exit, merge, and if you are unfortunate and cannot pull over you will “exit only” and get to figure out how to get back on after a few miles.
If you are riding the middle lane, which is often posted at 55, you will be going 60 to 65 mph and at best keeping up with the trucks.
You had better not tail-gate in any lane, because you can quickly find yourself at a near standstill for reasons known only to the road Gods.
I prefer the secondary roads, but many of them also connect to the I-465 loop.
I suppose compared to most big cities this is small potatoes. But when it comes to towing, in my opinion, I will keep with the flow in the middle lane and let the high speed boy cruise by on the left and avoid the dash and darting of the lane to the right.
