I don't know how many other states have one, but here in Ohio, we have one and I think it is just a bad idea.
Trucks & other large vehicles have to stay to 55 mph, while small vehicles can travel 65.
This often leads to a bottleneck in traffic. As long as there are trucks in the right (slow) lane, then you have to stay in the left lane to maintain your maximum legal speed.
That means if another driver is trying to go over the 65 mph limit, they are held up by the trucks in the right lane and the cars in the left.
I'm sure that someone thought it was a good idea when they started it, so I wanted to know, what's the logic behind it?
