So the slowest guy on the road is, by definition, impeding traffic no matter how many other lanes are available? That's amusing.

I'm actually a part of the traffic too, believe it or not. I'm just not the most anxious part of it. It's not my job to make the speed demons not notice that I'm there, but I do go out of my way to minimize my impact on them. If that's not good enough for them then they can rot. If that upsets them too badly then I'll cheerfully play. It's been a few years since my last deliberate (it wasn't an accident), but I've got no problem making a bowl of riceboy soup.
