It's only impractical at the moment because NO ONE DOES IT!
Next time you see two cars overtaking the middle car and trying to
merge back on top of each other from left and right, think about it
for a second.  If the slow car had been in the left lane - no
problems.

Doesn't matter if it's a truck or a ****sche GT3.  if you're not
overtaking, get over to the left lane.  It's the best way to prevent
massive accidents like we've already seen in the tunnel - and it's the
best way to improve flow on all our freeways.

Cheers,
Steve
