Up north many times you will find the left lane smoother than the right land. Same goes for many of the interstates. One year driving to Florida on I-77 just inside the NC line the right lane was almost impossible to drive at the speed limit. You felt that you needed a dentist appointment to reset all your fillings after that trip. On the other hand the left lane was very drivable at and above the speed limit with no problems.
Here in Ohio on the local expressway the far left lane (3 lanes each direction) is far better driving than the center lane and a little better than the far right lane.
As far as speed on the local roadways the local newspaper ran an article yesterday of how the police reductions have led to a drastic reduction in speeding tickets being written over the past year or so. Yesterday I did notice a large number of flyer's well over the posted limit as they now know the odds are in their favor.
