	It is illegal as one is ignoring several other laws, including
yeilding to passing/faster traffic, and improper use of the passing lane.

	In addition to breaking the law ( just as the one speeding ),
he's also compounding the problem by being a dangerous unattentive
self righteous driver. Next to drunk drivers, they're probably the
most dangerious class out there. [ off duty police officers are a 
subset of this one, m'thinks ].
