2. You should use a passing lane only when the maneuver is perceived as safe and prudent and can be completed without use of excessive speed. The pass must be completed within a reasonable amount of time, and you cannot exceed the speed limit.

You have to love this one.
If you're on a two lane with a 55 limit and the vehicle at the lead is doing 50, there is NFW that it is possible to safely pass that vehicle if you limit your speed to 55. With the assumption that you'd need about 100 feet, it would take over 13 seconds to accomplish the pass, not counting the time to accelerate from 50 to 55 mph.
I can't imagine anyone maintaining the speed limit in such a situation.
Ridiculous law.
