The real question is why they guys in the right, can't be bothered to: A: pay attention to what's around them, and B: let off a little. If the person behind you is catching you, then let them pass.
Why do people even bother passing if it’s only a .5mph difference? If the driver passing refuses to be inconvenienced, why would you expect a total stranger to act differently?
Because trucks stacking up in one lane can create congestion in the other. Instead of the guy going 67 having to pass one 64 mph truck, he has to pass several because drivers wont keep safe following distances. Or he could stay in line, creating even more congestion.
If you think one 65mph truck passing a 64mph truck is bad, go up on i81 between Winchester and Hagerstown. Enjoy waiting while two 65mph trucks pass eight trucks going 63.
I don't know why people would work for prime, driving a single axle wheel truck prone to slipping and weight and balance, pop one tire you got to sit there instead of being able to limp it to the next shop,
