I can say I have done that only because I see some douche coming up in the other lane, there is a lot of traffic that is going nowhere in a hurry and I know he is going to cut me off by squeezing in in front of me. not that I ride the bumper in front, I just close the door a little.
yea there are those that will speed up just to not let you pass and that's not what I am doing. If there was no traffic it would be a different story.
oh, was behind someone that was "hovering" over the car next to them doing about 50. once the car in the other lane dropped back I moved over to pass. the guy in front went from doing 50 to doing 70 as I went around, no other traffic around.
I try to be open minded when I drive about what I do as far as does it or would it make me madd if someone did that to me.
