IMHO, blocking faster drivers while traveling in the left lane is a needlessly risky tactic. I'll agree someone who feels the need to drive 90mph in a 55mph posted limit zone probably has some issues. Unfortunately, road rage can be one of those issues. It's far better to just get out of the guy's way and let him get that speeding ticket much faster. Don't take the risk of becoming the object for another driver's anger.

I'll push the speed limit a little on long road trips. Usually I'll at least stay within 5mph of a the posted limit. I've seen a lot of people speed past only to see them a short time later parked on the shoulder with OHP writing them a ticket.
