I generally stand by the rule "screw em". I don't drive 20 under the limit. When i'm in my big diesel cube van, i often drive 85km/h in a 100km/h zone that generally has 120km/h traffic. Screw em. I'm not going to DOUBLE my fuel usage and spend hundreds of extra dollars that weekend becaue they don't want to pay enough attention to see my giant white truck in the slow lane soon enough that they can simply signal and move over. You don't need to change your speed in any way to pass someone that's slower than you... you just drive around them. Don't defend the sheep who can't think ahead.
In my car, i generally try to drive 95-100km/h on the highways. I stay in the slow lane. I have certainly had much less stress since i started doing this.
In general, there is NO JUSTIFYING making people break the law in the name of safety. If you want matched speeds, tell the a-hole ramming his big truck up my arse to slow down.
