I'm saying that if I exceed the speed of another vehicle and that vehicle merges into my lane or I merge into theirs, and I hit their vehicle from behind, I'm at least partially at fault.

If their vehicle is fully in the lane, I'm almost certainly going to be completely at fault.

I'm saying if you ever exceed the speed of a lane next to you, a vehicle in that lane can force you to crash.

Yup. Relative speed doesn't matter. A vehicle in the lane next to you can force you to crash.
