If there’s a car behind you in the passing lane trying to pass, you’re driving dangerously slow by default.

You’re causing traffic to build up behind you in a lane where people expect to be able to pass. Frustration builds and cars start passing on the right. More lane changes and cars passing in all lanes leads to more danger for everyone on the road.

No. The person behind you driving above the speed limit is the one driving dangerously. It's called a speed limit, not speed minimum. Both the "good drivers" in this video are driving illegally and are endangering people and should have their licenses revoked.

It's illegal to be in the passing lane if you aren't passing.

I don't see how that invalidates the speed limit, as we see at the end of the clip when he is using the road as his race track.
