i know this is a rule, but why? i cannot think of how or why this would be bad. also, if you’re in the middle lane, pass to the right for an exit, and happen to be going faster than the middle lane, is that illegal?
so sorry if this is mega dumb but i genuinely cannot understand why this is illegal.

A driver who is driving on the left side of the car is close to their left mirror. Because they are closer to their mirror, they can see quite a bit out of it. The driver can also glance over their shoulder to the left without much getting in the way. Passing this driver on the left is safest because the driver has the best vantage point to see you approaching. The opposite is true for the right side, especially of large vehicles. It’s much harder to judge distance or in some cases, see you at all due to blind spots. Also, glancing over the shoulder to the right has a lot of obstacles in the way.
