As far as not moving over goes, THE LAW requires you to get to the right when approached from behind by a faster vehicle. The faster vehicle IS NOT required to go around YOU, YOU are REQUIRED to move over, whether you like it or not, and yes, YOU can get a ticket if you refuse to do so

Not if you are making a left turn, are waiting to move safely into the right lane after passing, or are experiencing car problems etc. There ARE REASONS a driver may be in the left lane. When you get pulled over for careless driving, good luck explaining all traffic was supposed to move to the right so YOU could travel seamlessly.
A vehicle has to move to the right lane ONLY if it is travelling below the speed limit. This is why it is called the SLOW LANE. The left lane does not allow you to travel at whatever speed you want. You must adhere to the speed limit. I do not know this as a fact, but there is probably a margin of +/- 5 mph. This would mean a cart travelling 15 mph, picking up speed, here and there, is allowed to continue in the left lane. I doubt a police officer will ticket the cart for failure to move to the right lane. Most likely, carts travelling over 20mph will get a ticket.
