Be especially careful to keep an eye on the right lane and shoulders on highways where I now find many little Hondas with blue lights taking the position that it's their own personal highway to pass on the right at 80+ mph.

Police rarely do anything about that.
Passing in the right lane IS legal in most states......particularly when grandma and grandpa camp in the left lane going under the posted limit.

If you aren't passing someone then get in the right lane.....you will irritate far fewer people and not cause traffic jams and road rage.
