You know when I am going 5 miles over the speed limit, and plan to 
travel 30 or more miles, I move to the far left lane to avoid the 
merging traffic at the right where most of the on ramps are.

When I learned to drive last century, the teaching was that the left 
lane was essentially an express lane to travel through on, not an 
unlimited speed autobohn lane.  

I know it drives the young guys with more testosterone than brain 
cells crazy to travel at only 5 miles over the speed limit, but at my 
advanced age, it seems fast enough to me.

Luckily, as my eyesight fails, I don't really see the headlights 
flashing anymore.

I agree with you on the death penalty for idiot drivers, we may 
disagree on who the idiots are.
