Not only do they not understand, they don't care to learn. Why should they? After all, they do own the road don't they? ;)
RI/Mass area is full of left lane campers, people who drift into your lane as you pass on the left and others who accelerate when they see you passing them on the left. Some of it is ignorance, some of it is machismo rearing it's ugly head and the rest is plain indifference. The Europeans do it the right way and we should learn from their example.
Oddly, when I travel home to Vermont I notice that close to 100% of cars WITH VT PLATES will pull into the right lane to let me pass when I approach them at speed in the left lane. Then again, I get waved through intersections when it's not my right-of-way up there. Must be something in the water.
