No. They behave like geese. Those in front of me are doing it, so I will too. I drive an ambulance for fun (long story). I can ALWAYS count on the person in the left lane, with an open right lane and me approaching behind them, to HIT THE BRAKES in front of me rather than moving to the right. Always. 100%. It's why I don't fly up behind people and close the gap too fast. I also refuse to go around them to the right since our traffic laws work such that if I do, and they then pull right as they're supposed to, I'm at fault. Another long story (but no accident to go with it).
