Ha ha ha!!
Some things never change.
This was one of the first things I learned when I was living in Milan
in the '70s. Those Belgians were a menace. Archetypal left lane hogs,
and they would swing into the left lane at any time without (apparently)
checking their mirrors.
But those were good days, a 40 mile drive to work around the Tangenziale,
and I could easily average 100+ mph.
