Thank you for your informative flames.  Okay, no more net baiting.
It looks like my original unqualified posting was wrong (in most states.)

Here is the situation I have questions about.  I'm in the center lane,
which is packed.  We're all moving about 50 mph.  I pull out to pass at
55 mph, and someone roars up behind me.  If there is no room to move over,
for maybe a minute or two, what do I do?  Do I speed up, or slow down to
take my original spot back, if possible?  This is the situation in which
I take the position that I can stay in the fast lane as long as it takes
ME to pass.  Still wrong?  Then what do I do?
