Really, the only times I can remember people getting pissed off and honking, swearing, etc is when someone drives real slow in the left lane rather than the right. And somewhat rightly so; it's not your job to police other people's speed. Driving slow in the left lane is just as unlawful as speeding is.

I agree with that - drive on the right, pass in the left.
That said, I have had people get upset with me for going the speed limit on a two-lane road with a no-passing zone. And I have been tailgated going the speed limit in the right lane on a four-lane highway (where I could have easily been passed.)
