Here in Miami, the same law is about to pass. The rationale for the law is essentially road rage. Car 1 is in the left hand lane, closely tailgated by Car 2. Driver in Car 1 is pissed off because Car 2 is tailgating, considers Car 2 an idiot and ignores it. Car 2 flicks its lights to tell Car 1 to switch lanes. Car 1 gets more pissed. Car 2 flicks lights again, Car 1 says that's it, and hits the brakes to teach Car 1 a lesson. Big accident. Everybody in the vicinity is lucky they weren't killed.
This kind of thing happens a lot here. I don't mind the new law (not that there's anything anybody can do about it). It creates a little inconvenience, but probably makes the freeway a bit safer.
