Navigating Rough Right Lanes: Staying Left on I-95 and Other Highways

Guess what; you’re wrong.

Not according to the law. Read it and be educated.

It varies state to state. So I would say you are both right and both wrong...LOL

Actually it doesn't. There is no Fast Lane. It doesn't exist. Speed limits can be controlled by the state, but Interstates are a federal highway system.

Semantics. Doesn't matter what you call the left lane. In many states you can be ticketed for staying in the left lane.
Your second links shows that in MANY states.. Keep right unless passing is a law.

Best thing for you to do is stick to two lane roads.

I'll drive the interstate system, thanks anyway. Its better than going thru podunk USA and getting every traffic light known to man, woman or child.

Just got back from a trip to Raleigh from Savannah. Along sections of I-95, especially the concrete portions in SC, the right lane is very rough from broken pavement. Even though I tow at 65 mph, I decide to stay in the smoother left lane for the benefit of my wife and me as well as the trailer. Where the pavement turned back to asphalt I moved over.

Who needs infrastructure maintenance when we can get a steal of a bargain on Greenland for a mere 200 billion. Ps...When roads are rough in the right lane I also go left

I agree. Not legal in Indiana, interstate left lane is passing only. Another catch is beyond belief; regardless of speed, vehicles must not impede the flow of traffic. That means if a vehicle is traveling 75 in a 55 speed zone and other cars pile up behind the speeding vehicle, that driver can be ticketed for impeding the flow of traffic.
Ya, crazy.
