A few years back I drove on the Autoban in a new Citroen XM (very nice car). I was in cruise control at 240km/h. It was exciting and absolutely safe because of the general respect for the road. If you are in a slower car you stay in the right lane and if you have to pass a truck, you do it quickly and get back in that lane.
If you are in the left and a car behind you flashes you like an AMG, you move over, simple as that. No pissing around and slowing down because you don't like a car flashing you. I wish we had that kind of respect on the 401 between London and Toronto.
