I believe that we will end up with convoys of cars doing what trucks do already.
A slight discrepancy in the speed set as maximum will have vehicles taking ten miles or so to overtake because as Mark said they will all be driving at full right boot and the one being overtaken will not be willing to slacken off for a minute to let the overtaker finish his manoeuvre quickly.
I come across this all the time with HGVs. The overtaker sitting in lane 2 for miles and me in a coach that is allowed to drive some 6 MPH faster stuck behind and I am not allowed to use lane 3.
I normally drive on cruise control at about 58MPH then open up to my allowed max of 62 when I pull out to overtake a truck. Back to cruse after the overtake is completed.
