The middle lane is an overtaking lane just like any other lanes toward the middle of the roadway (reverse that for the handful of countries that drive on the other side of the road). Every country I've sat for a drivers test in has had that as a very basic concept and the single country I've actually seen it followed had the best damn driving experience (German's follow the rules and their roads are better for it).

I agree with you. The thing is, the overriding principle (and law) of driving is to be cautious. By my interpretation, all other laws can be bent if bending them is safer than strictly adhering to them. Hence my previous comment.
