I think we know the group of folks who roll that way, same ones that sit in the left lane doing the speed limit, because it't the speed limit.

You perfectly described my Prius driving step dad. I wont ride in the car if he's driving because I'm convinced someone is going to shoot him or run him off the road one day. That's not an internet exaggeration. I've had many conversation with him and my mom about it. He's extraordinarily unsafe on the road because he tries to enforce traffic rules as he sees them. Once, on a winding 2-lane mountain road, he took it upon himself to ensure everyone lined up behind him achieved maximum MPGs by "hyper-miling" his Prius which i can only imagine translates into driving as slow and humanly possible while the people stuck behind you go out of their f'ing minds and contemplate passing on blind corners.
Yeah, my stepdad would 10,000% approve of this legislation and probably think "It's a start but doesnt go far enough."
