The Trooper must know that a person can pass on the right per TITLE XXI MOTOR VEHICLES
CHAPTER 265 RULES OF THE ROAD.
265:19 When Overtaking on the Right is Permitted. – The driver of a vehicle may overtake and pass on the right of another vehicle only under the following conditions:
I. When the vehicle overtaken is making or about to make a left turn;
II. Upon a roadway with unobstructed pavement of sufficient width for 2 or more lines of vehicles moving lawfully in the direction being traveled by the overtaking vehicle;
III. The driver of a vehicle may overtake and pass another vehicle upon the right only under conditions permitting such movement in safety. Such movement shall not be made by driving off the roadway.

Germany does it right. You would not dare travel in the left lane on the Autobahln unless you were passing or traveling at a speed no one could catch you. Its so aggravating driving north on the mass exodus from florida when drivers sit in the left lane and then travel at the same speed as the driver in the next lane until road rage sets in and then there is a free for all to get around them. In areas where there are 3 lanes you can travel up to 85 in the slow lane for miles as there is no one there. Most drivers dont care at what speed you want to drive but dont sit in the left lane to prove a point
