If others seem oblivious it does not negate my responsibility.

He's not saying you have to keep right, he's saying you have to either:
1) Move
off the road or
2) Speed up to the speed of the approaching nednecks.
As such, poster XYZ clearly misunderstood what Bestclimber meant by "pull over", and what I meant in responding:

I find that extraordinary. If you're driving 60 in a 65 maximum zone, you a required to move up to the maximum or pull over to let others through???

Have you no memory of what you said? Yes, that's what "keep right except to pass" means - that you are required to move up to the maximum or pull over to let others through. Your convenient loss of memory of your initial statement is "extraordinary", indeed. |
Happy now? "Pull over" means "pull off the road", not "keep right (slowest lane)". And since, again, you should keep right
anyway and in
all circumstances, this should speak for itself. I suspect that, as a speed freak who is unlikely to obey any road conventions, you don't respect this convention and hence your misunderstanding.
