Agree.
I also hate it though when I’m in the passing lane going 75-80, passing people, and someone comes up behind going like 95-100 and expects me to move over.
No, that is not how it works. If someone wants to go faster than you, you have two options: Get over into the slower lane, or speed up.
Is this a serious response? If I’m passing an 18 wheeler, I don’t have the option to move over.
If I’m passing anything, actually, I don’t have the option to move over.
Yes, it is a 100% serious response. As you have stated, it is physically impossible for you to get over in that situation. Because of that, you only have one option left: Speeding up.
If you can not handle that, maybe you should stay home.
(Yes, I’m an asshole.)
EDIT: On a side note, I am not one of those that drives 100mph. I usually only go 9mph over, BUT, if someone wants to go faster than me, I promptly get over.
The last thing I’m doing is driving faster and being more likely to get a speeding ticket.
Move over at your first opportunity, other than that, just drive.[/quote]
Depends on the level of ass riding going on, if the guy is a little too close but not being blatent, then I move over. I drive 5-9 over the speed limit myself so it’s not like i’m driving rediculously slow. But if the person is on my tail in a very unsafe manner, like if I have to brake he is going to rearend me, then I usually brake check them lightly. I don’t do a full brake check where I slow down alot, just a touch so the brake lights go on. If they back off, I will also then pull over as soon as I passed the vehicle I’m passing (or line of vehicles if I can’t safely pull in between the one i’m passing and the next one). If they don’t take the hint and continue to tailgate me or make any other gestures that are offensive, I stay fucking right in that lane. Let them pass me on the right if they are going to drive like a crazy fuck.
That being said, if someone is in the passing lane doing 50 or 55 in a 55, ESPECIALLY if they are outside of another car and NOT passing them, I will give them the horn or the flashing lights. I don’t tailgate because it’s not safe to do.
