    this thread full of the type to wax poetic on the virtues of professionalism while taking 10 minutes to pass on the left for the sole enjoyment of seeing how mad they can make everyone who can't get around. the same type to throw a fit behind me in the middle lane and floor it to the right when i do try to move over, acting like i'm cutting you off. i see you grinning. i get it, you're bored and it's way too easy of an opportunity to mob someone else for a change. the same type in new york to berserk like i'm in the way and then get in front and just stare at me with your mouth open. bruh if you had somewhere to be you'd be getting there, not here.

    I just drove 200 miles from Pittsburgh to Toledo in the middle lane of three without having to change lanes a single time.

    I just drove 200 miles from Pittsburgh to Toledo in the middle lane of three and the only problem I ran into in 200 miles was every two out of three limp wristed OOs slowing down to hold up traffic and wiggle their fist at me :binky:

    Occasionally someone's going to get butt hurt because they don't like it when people do things in a way they don't. They can't think outside their bubble and any change in the industry violates their "I've been out here 30 years" chest beating.

    I had a good laugh at someone like you today. Guy holding all traffic back running left lane but not passing anyone, hear a voice asking if there is a problem on the CB, driver holding responds with similar response to your post and ends it with an insult. Come out to 3 lanes one of the 4 trucks he was holding back holds off on passing him right until it’s going back to two lanes, then takes the pass at the end the 3 lanes and just before the top of the hill. (Mr ####ney blocker didn’t stand a chance and that truck blocked him from doing his thing for the next 30 miles) he was trapped in his lane behind a slow moving pick up from where the 3rd lane ends and speed limit goes up with a good downhill for the first few miles. Then the driver playing with him artfully would give enough room for others to get by and then close the hole every time mr ####ey blocker tried. He was on the horn, waving and gesturing for most of the time and all I heard as I watched was “Well it ain’t no fun being on the receiving end now is it” think that’s when the bonehead realized he was outsmarted, outmanuvered and put in his place because he backed off and stayed right until that truck took an off ramp many miles later!

    Cute story. The part that makes it obvious ######## though is the 30 miles. Wouldn't apply to me because I don't play games insulting or name calling on the radio like children do. I also tend towards the idea of if you let someone else make you angry or upset they've gotten to you. I'll stay in the left lane and let others get hopping mad as I sit back and cruise the speed limit all day though. They are behind me, what do I care?
