Everyone in the world respects that as a law of driving except here, and what drives me nuts is the look they give you when you finally pass. I feel that attitude of NOT moving to the right because you don't want too or cause you don't know is the attitude foreign people don't like about us.

Stationed in Germany and was in awe by the respect of the drivers.
We was in the left lane doing 135 mph and was *blinked* from a car that was at least a good mile or so back.Driver moved to middle lane and no more than a few minutes did the Porshe "whoosh" past us...that's exactly what it sounded like a "whoosh" .......
State side you practically have to pass the idiot in the "middle" lane to get over to the left.......................
