If I am following a car at 40MPH when I could be (legally) doing 60MPH then in one hour I should be 20 miles further up the road - simples!
I do take your point.
My issue is that if you are happy content to drive at less than the speed limit you shouldn't be upset / aggrieved if someone chooses to pass you and indeed you should facilitate overtaking by allowing a gap
In my humble opinion, it's no different from lane hogging on the motorway - once you have passed the vehicle in front, move over out of the way - there will ALWAYS be someone wishing to go faster than you! It's surely better for all concerned to let faster traffic through?
