Ever hear of "Keep right except when passing"?  IOW, if you ain't showing
off stay out of the show-off lane.  It wasn't me but you are owed no
apology, at least by #4.  Now #1 through #3, perhaps.  They were passing,
unsafely, on the right because, I might add, you were in a lane where you
shouldn't have been.
