   Expecting all drivers other than yourself to remain in the right-most   
   lane even when there are 3, 4, or 5 lanes available not only absurd, but   
   it simply will not happen under normal driving conditions on most   
   highways, unless the roadway is void of cars altogether, which is   
   obviously not what we are talking about here.

   You did what?... Expected all other drivers not to occupy anything but   
   the right-most lane? Did the other drivers live up to your silly   
   expectation? Did you have all lanes except the right lane all to   
   yourself?
