I will make every effort to demonstrate my opinion of these doches with a hand signal after I pass them. You want to get crazy? I can get crazy with the best of them.They're zombies.
I can assure you it's not me.
1. If I'm in the left lane, I'm gaining or passing
2. If I'm in the left lane, even if I'm gaining, and I see that you're gaining on me, even from 10 car length back, I'll move over and let you go first- but when you go by, GO!
The thing I've been experiencing in the last couple weeks is there are a few passing lanes on the two lane roads on the way home from work. There is a section that is about 7 miles long that is 55mpg the whole way. Pretty much every day I get behind someone that wants to drive 47-50. Fine, go that slow, but I'm not gonna because I don't have to. So we get to one of the three passing sections, and it's clear, so I initiate a pass. As I get next to the person that was just driving 47, I find that I'm going 70 and am barely getting by. By time the pass is completed, I look at my speedometer and I'm going 80*, and I didn't blow them away at all, and as I slow down to the speed limit, they're sticking with me. They're endangering me just because they don't want to be passed? I don't tailgate and am every conscious of the distance between me and the car in front (no less that two car lengths unless they just brake or let off suddenly, and then I'll rectify the distance.
*I know that I'm not supposed to exceed the speed limit to pass. I've been ticketed for it, but if they were going 25 when I initiated a pass and then sped up, I'd end up exceeding 55mph to complete it.
People be crazy, but you never know if the guy passing you is crazier.
One day I'll buy a VTOL or helicopter so I can avoid the traffic.
