Your desire to go faster than the car in front does not overrule rules of safe driving. If you think it does, or if you’re so impatient you are unable to think rationally in this situation, your attitude is not suitable for driving a two ton machine at 70-odd miles per hour.
The sticker is wrong. Get out of the driver’s seat.

There’s no such thing as a “fast lane”. “Fast lane” implies that there’s a speed fast enough to justify staying there, which is false.
It’s the passing lane. You use it to pass slower traffic in the middle lane before getting back into the middle lane. If you’re not passing people, you do not belong in that lane.

But people do go faster in that lane than the other lanes, because they have to in order to pass.

You do not have to pass someone. There’s actually no justification for passing someone who is already driving at the speed limit.

True, but people cleaning things in the kitchen doesn’t make it the cleaning room. It’s the passing lane, speed is a byproduct of the actual purpose.

I dunno man. I guess I just understand how nicknames work and where they come from.
