Yeah, it's unsafe, but how is it making things worse? It seems to be making the best of a bad situation, not escalating anything.
Because a good chunk of time your just making it harder for the person who is holding everyone up to move over. I’ve seen lots of people pull out from behind me in the fast lane and go past me and the car in front of me, and then the car in front will move over. Sometimes people do want to get out of the way but people are to impatient to let them.
I'll give them about 30 seconds. Which is 25 seconds longer than it takes to get in the slow lane.
What the fuck? How is doing something unsafe not making things worse?
The real solution here is to pass and enforce "stay right except to pass" laws. You should only pass on the left, full stop.
