I think the issue is more or less slow drivers. One asshole is going 60 in a 70 in the left lane which caused people to pass them which in turn cause the cascade from the maneuvering around the slow person.

Slow drivers are far more dangerous than people don't 10 15 over the speed limit.

    You are incorrect. You are the cause of the traffic jam lol, literally.

    Are you trying to suggest that driving at higher speeds is safer than driving at lower speeds? Because that goes against the laws of physics

    That is exactly what I'm suggesting. And so are the sources I provided.

    But let me be clear. People who go slow on purpose in high speed areas are a danger for people trying to go faster. I'm not taking about people speeding recklessly. I'm talking people going 60 in a 70 or 20 in a 35. They cause other drivers to maneuver around them which could cause a situation.

    If people pass quickly, then get out of the left lane, nobody needs to brake and start a compression wave
