If you’re in the left lane, and there’s someone behind you but no one in front of you, move over and let them pass. Simple.

Or better yet, if there's room to your right and the lane to your right isn't the right-most lane, move right. It doesn't matter if someone is behind you or if you're one lane from the left, move right if you're not passing someone.

Far too many people camp in the left most lane when there's plenty of room to the right. This forces traffic that you're probably not actually noticing to pass on the right, which is unsafe and, in some areas, illegal.

It doesn't force them to drive unsafely. That's a decision they make on their own.

Personally I always keep an eye out for this type of driver and make sure to get out the way. The longer they are around me the more likely I am to be collateral in their firey death.

Oh certainly. Always drive defensively. But that's different than blaming someone else for their offensive driving.
