I've seen people drive on the shoulder because they don't realize that if there isn't an opening, you are supposed to YIELD. Honestly I prefer bigger cities where nobody expects polite, and they just make their way into the flow of traffic.

But back to the point, kudos to this guy. People going slow in the left lane can be just as hazardous as someone going too fast.
Women drivers, mostly, I notice.
Here in AZ they have long merging lanes.

How about the woman driver in front of you?... ten cars behind you moving along nicely in city traffic.
The woman, who's identified with being a "giving" person, stops to let a car enter from the right side...usually from a parking lot.
So everyone behind her has to participate in her givingness.
