What I think about the manner of driving in the passing lane

What it feels like on the highway

I travel in my Panamera almost every day and use the highway once or twice a week. Today.Manners of cars driving in the passing lane on the freeway."I have been thinking about this. By the way, if you look up the definition of an overtaking lane, it says something like this.

In Japan, it is the rightmost lane when there are multiple lanes on one side of a roadway, mainly on expressways and freeways. This lane is used to overtake the car in front of you in the travel lane.

On the highway, I drive in the driving lane if there is an opening, but if not, I usually drive in the passing lane. Even if I am not in a hurry, I do not like to drive slowly and leisurely in my Panamera. However, I do not like to stir up the car in front of me, so when I see a car in front of me, I try to slow down and leave some distance between the cars.

However, when a car is coming up behind me at great speed, I change lanes to the left and give way when I see it in my rearview mirror. The Panamera has more power and acceleration than the average car, and even if it were to come up behind me, I'm almost sure I could beat it.I want to avoid conflict as much as possible.Better to give way gracefully.(It's not about winning or losing)

Will you overtake them? Not overtaking?

Sometimes, though, it can be quite frustrating. It's not thatIt is the presence of a car that continues to drive slowly and sluggishly in the passing lane.(Last time I checked he was running at 80 km/h the whole time)The passing lane is supposed to be the lane used to overtake the car in front of you. And yet, they are not overtaking at all, but driving side by side if you will....

If you don't want to pass, don't drive in the passing lane!

But then the car behind me began to get more and more impatient. However, the car continued to drive in the overtaking lane.

No, no, no, read the air... (-_-)

If the reason is that there is an Orbis 1km ahead, I can see why you would continue to drive at that speed. If there is a steep hill or a series of curves, I can understand. But how can they keep driving at that speed on a straight road with nothing in front of them? Maybe he doesn't look in the rearview mirror. Or maybe he's aware of it, but still keeps running at a harassing speed.

...and so on, but then I learned a startling fact.

Naturally, even in the passing lane, the legal speed limit must not be exceeded.

Eh! Is that so!

However, since it is called an overtaking lane, I wish people would not drive if they do not intend to overtake.
