Americans don't know to get out of the left lane when they see flashing headlights or left turn signal. Wish we would train our drivers with at least the equivilent of farhschule.
Some people purposely block the lanes to slow traffic, thinking they are traffic control. Try not to get steamed and be VERY careful trying to pass. Some will swerve at you. It should be legal to shoot them, but sadly it is not.
