Either way, you went into the left lane without considering whether you had the space to do so.

It can easily take 30 seconds to pass several slow vehicles, especially if there are campers or trucks. A lot of drivers follow too close on the highway and don't leave enough room for cars to overtake.
Now, I suppose I could just stomp on the gas of my Dodge Grand Caravan with a wife and two kids in it just so I don't inconvenience a guy doing 135. But frankly, I don't feel the need to accommodate rageaholics doing 25 k over the limit who can't ease off the gas for a few seconds. Driving way faster than the flow of traffic is at least as dangerous as driving slower.
