You flash people here driving in the left lane and they have no
clue what you are doing, which also stands to reason they have no
clue what they are doing either since they are driving in the left
lane. The last 3 months I have had to drive at least 300 miles a
day all highway and I would say it is almost half or more of cars
I pass I have to pass them on the right because they are driving
in the left lane and will not move over.

That is why MBs since 1963 or 64 have had high beam flashers.
They are to signal to the car ahead (on the Autobahn or
Autostrada) that you are closing and they need to get over into
the right lane.
What scares me is the difference in speed driven on the
highways. We drove
from AR to OK Sat. There was a LOT of traffic in the toll road
between
Tulsa and OKC. At one point traffic was backed up for close to
a mile
because one semi was driving 63 and trying to pass another that
was driving
61 (or so). They were see-sawing over the hills for several
miles. The
slower traffic is as much a hazard as the faster traffic. I
think the speed
limits should have a 5mph spread, with severe penalties for
exceeding
either end. Those who can't maintain the posted speed limits
need to get
off and find a two-lane.

important to have a vehicle with decent tires and to maintain
the brakes,
suspension etc.
