If you are in the left lane and someone passes you on your right, you will get a ticket for impeding the flow of traffic (up to $275). You'll see signs all over Texas that say either "Left lane for passing only" or "Slower traffic keep right". They mean the same thing. If you're doing 85mph and someone comes up behind you at 90mph and you aren't passing, you have to move over.
 Besides that, some big Bubba like me in a big Bubba truck may run you off the road for blocking the left lane. It's our new state pastime, and I am one of the best.  If you drove in the left lane the whole time and were going under 85, you're lucky to be alive right now.  Oh, and remember to "Drive Friendly" in the Lone Star State.

What's the dang speed limit in TX?????? If you are sppeding at 85 and someone runs up on you, then they are speeding as well. But yet you get a ticket if someone slows down because you are impedeing traffic doing the posted speed limit. Doesn't make sense to me.

If you don't give up the left lane, you are forcing faster traffic into the slower lanes, which makes you the most dangerous driver on the highway. The fine for impeding the flow of traffic is quite a bit higher than the fine for speeding for that reason. Don't move over for a cop and you'll probably get a ticket for impeding and for speeding. eman - You aren't required to move to the shoulder to let someone pass. The info above is only when there is more than one lane travelling in the same direction. However, most Texans do move to the shoulder to let faster traffic pass out of courtesy.
