I believe the "Left lane law" as you call it, restricts heavy vehicles
to the rightmost two lanes only.  It's a wear-and-tear problem, not a
speed problem.  Only the two rightmost lanes are designed for heavy
vehicles.  Left lanes are not built to the same standards, so heavy
weight causes excess wear.  For left exits, there's usually a "end left
lane restriction" sign where the left lanes are built to truck
standards.
