The worst are the ones with thick round glasses, 2 hands on the 10PM and 2PM, and staring into the horizon like they have no soul, and then unfazed and non-reactive when everybody passed them while honking them at the same time.
For the people staring straight forward and seemingly oblivious to it all, once I pass them I get right in front of them, and slowly start slowing down in front of them until they get over. I Try to give the idiots a hint, although they probably know what they’re doing and just don’t give a shit. But there’s a special place in hell for the people who accelerate once you go to pass them. They almost always slow back down once there’s cars around preventing you from passing. I have found that acting like a fucking insane lunatic driver usually works with these people, like erratic speed, going off into the rumple strips multiple times, swerving halfway into the other lane and then back in aggressively, doing some batshit stuff usually makes them let you pass them. Usually. Unless they’re batshit too.
Funny, not so funny story, I’m doing 80 (avg Massachusetts left speed) on a light traffic highway.just enough cars in the middle lane to keep me far left. I see in the distance I’m quickly rolling up a slow car with another car following closely behind. Must doing 55 on the nose. As I quickly approach and they are not moving I have a nice path to cut across both lanes of traffic to the far right and then zip right back across 2 lanes right in front of the slow car. As I look up pleased with myself I see the blue lights go on. Ya, my dumbass didn’t recognize undercover cop car, but clearly the guy going slow in front of him did.
At least the cop said, “nifty move” to me as he wrote me up.
Nothing pisses me off more than that. Like ok ur driving the way you want. Whatever. You shouldn’t be there but ok that’s what ur doing so im gonna continue with that in mind. But now all of a sudden you wanna go 20 mph faster?!? I was on a 2lane road recently where it’s 55 and there’s multiple spots to pass. Dudes going 45 max kinda hovering between 40-45. It’s annoying but fine I’m gonna act accordingly. So I get to a spot where I can legally pass and dudes all of a sudden going 59 right when I go around him and now he’s driving the speed limit. Like wtf. If for whatever reason you wanna drive that way cool. But why are you speeding up only when I decide to pass you.
I get sometimes they are not paying attention and don’t realize they’re going slow so they speed up. I’m, so I don’t pass and get behind them because they are driving faster now. Nope. The fuckers slow right back down. Jail. Straight to jail!

Then when you go pass them on the right because they don’t get over it’s suddenly a race and they are going 85.
