And to help make it less complicated, you could color code the lines to correspond to the speed limit in that lane, instead of just having white and yellow lane line colors, like green for 55, blue for 65, etc. etc. Maybe it's too complicated, but it would make it a lot easier to drive.
Speed differential in such close quarters is worse than the whole clump going too fast.
