Better than subsidizing those who drive slower-than-ambient-traffic in
the left lane.  This causes accidents as other frustrated drivers do
dangerous things to get around them.  As a side effect the slow
drivers who caused the hazard in the first place are not involved in
the accident, and thus their insurance/points are unaffected, so they
continue to go about causing hazards.
