[quote N-OS X-tasy!]Pretty much every state has a traffic law on the books that says "slower traffic keep right," and for good reason. Drivers in the fast lane wouldn't have to swerve around slower drivers in that (or any) lane if that law were followed.
If the speed limit is 65 and you are traveling 65 in the fast lane and the driver in front of you is traveling 60, he constitutes a traffic hazard and is legally obligated to move over. End of story.
Washington state law says it is illegal to drive 20 mph slower than the posted limit. if someone is doing 60 in a 60 and is blocking traffic, not exactly against the law in this state.
