Have to admit I do it sometimes. Will be driving 70-75 mph then catch up to someone doing the speed limit and decide maybe I should also. Don't tailgate though.
Why catch up before passing?

Worst part is when you pass them going .2 mph faster, takes 4 minutes and when you pass them, they speed up and pass you within 2 seconds. ONTARIO

the truck is governed 2 mph over the lowest interstate speed we travel, except Michigan...which doesn't count bc 60 mph is ridiculous. most of my travels are in a 70 mph area. I won't ride another truck maliciously unless it is in the middle lane of an empty 3 lane road or hogging the hammer lane. the o/o trucks blow my doors off and I'll be that guy passing a ups wiggle wagon pulling 10' every mile haha
I make an effort to exercise common courtesy, but I am often someone's #1 fan. -
99% of drivers around you are stupid.
roll_tide07 and Audiomaker Thank this. -
When I see that Canada License Tag on the trailer, I breathe a sigh of relief. Because I then know for sure, that even my slow ### truck can pass him.
Dye Guardian and blairandgretchen Thank this. -

I get off the cruise and drop 10-15 mph. Then when they pass they look at me like im doing something wrong. I wish I had the older trailers where it didnt have the brake lights come on when you used the johnson bar. I used to have fun with that
