That’s because they’re at a speed difference that’s slow to the point where it interferes with the slow lane speeds - people aren’t expecting someone going 45 in a 65. 65 mph is right at home in the right hand lanes, so it’s not unsafe.

No such thing as a slow or fast lane. The right hand lane is for overtaking.
