    Only if you aren’t passing people. If you’re in the left lane and passing those on the right, you have no obligation to move over just because someone behind you wants to go faster.

    This all assumes there isn’t significant congestion causing all lanes to be mere travel lanes below the speed limit.

      I’d say as long as you’re passing at a reasonably higher speed than the right lane. I don’t think rigs should ever be allowed in the left lane, let alone “passing” another rig going 69 while you’re going 70

        I see many freeways in my area with signs restricting trucks from using the left lane. Unfortunately not all of them and it’s only for 3+ lane freeways so they still have at least two lanes to turtle race each other

      Glad you said the second part, as someone who frequents the traffic heavy 405 I don’t think we have passing lanes anymore sometimes.
