Most motorways in France and even Germany don't even have 3 lanes, so you basically have to stay right unless overtaking. Plus the limits are higher/absent, and there is an order of magnitude less traffic and congestion (outside Paris anyway), so lane discipline is very good.
In Germany if you hog the outside lane someone in an Audi will smash into you at 190mph.
