So many people seriously supporting breaking speed limits is insane.

Guys, these rules are there for a very good reason, and this reason is spilled in blood all over the roads.

No, you're not "competent enough" to break those limits. You're overstimating yourself, and this is a fallacy many people have. And every day some of those overconfident people get straight to the grave, taking normal people with them.

this only applies to not very congested roads. I'm la type areas where there's always traffic it doesn't work

I've seen so many wrecks because of assholes trying to go 85-150 MPH on a god damn road. The comments here enforce the idea that people are just selfish, self centered motherfuckers when it comes to driving on the highway. There is a posted fucking speed LIMIT for a god damn reason. Leave earlier if you want to get to your fucking destination on time.

Depends on where you are, traffic, and driving conditions. Generally though yeah, you stay out of the left lane unless passing when you're outside of urban and suburban areas.
