As others have said, I to have no time for people parked in the left lane on the Interstate.

This.
I don't try to button people out of a spot in moving traffic though. I see far too many people that treat commuter traffic as a competition. Not competing in the one ton and won't be in the mighty matrix when I am driving it next school year.
On the highway with the travel trailer behind the truck, I pick my times to get around slow vehicles. Watching how fast the traffic behind me is closing I just adjust my speed to let them through without losing my momentum.
