It's been a couple of decades for me since, but didn't you love the discipline of it?

Pass and move over to the right. Simple. Disciplined. Attentive driving. Everyone makes progress at thier own speed. (Except for the speed limits in sections now due to congestion) And if you didn't, one very quickly had the lights of someone faster coming up in one's rearview to remind you!!

I drive often on German freeways but these days heavy traffic results with limited speed posted on overhead digital signs. My personal maximum speed is about 130km/h which is about 80mph. I do like drivers discipline in Germany and other Western countries but not all. When you drive in Switzerland you need to more cautious, tickets are somehow related to either your salary or wealth, ouch.
