That's... exactly what I'm saying.

My point is it's unsafe to pass on the right. If you can't pass on the left and there's available room to the right, the driver in front should be ticketed, because doing that encourages unsafe passing from those behind them. If the driver behind gets impatient, they should be ticketed for reckless driving by passing on the right.

So don't pass on the right. If there's a driver in front of you that's holding up traffic with room on the right to move over, call traffic enforcement if it's illegal in your area (and if it's not, campaign for it to become illegal).

Yeah if there's no one in front of you and someone can undertake you, you fucked up. I'm glad to see this thread full of so many sensible takes on how to drive safely and maintain efficient flows of traffic. Normally these threads online get flooded with brain dead takes like "I'm going fast enough, why should I move?".
