I don't understand your interpretation of 2(1)(C). Are you saying that "the normal and reasonable movement of traffic" includes travelling at over the speed limit?

And how does the "you can't enforce speed limits" derive from 2(1)(c)?

It seems clear to me that if you are driving under the speed limit, you should be in the right lane and if you are driving at or close to the speed limit, you are free to drive in any lane. If you drive over the speed limit, you are breaking the law in any lane (IIRC that applies to even passing on a two lane road or highway).
