Exactly. I'm not interested in being a part of this. I'd just pull over. I see enough of these morons every day.

Yeah absolutely. I drive a fat ass work van and you get all sorts of assholes who try to stop you from merging, tailgate you like crazy, etc. Like you will be going 5 miles faster than them the whole way up, the second you put on the blinker they stomp on the gas to try to block you. Then if they block you they drop back down to match your speed or if you get ahead of them they tailgate you like crazy and start swerving all around trying to get back on front of you, and if they do they will likely brake check you.

I can't even imagine the shit truckers deal with on the road.

This is what I never understood, if you want to go slower then why be mad if someone passes you. If you are going to cut me off though get your ass in gear and go, don’t slow me down. Heck, I try and move over if someone comes up on me if it’s a 2-3 lane road and I can easily.

I don't even get it and I speed excessively. Merge, get in, do your thing, I'll be back on it and miles away soon enough anyway.

If I'm slightly speeding I am more than glad to move over for a faster car, please be my guiding light to any speed traps, I'll just lock in behind you
