The Passing Game

The Passing Game

You know this tool....

He's the guy who speeds up and slows down the entire time you're trying to pass him on the free way.

He'll drive just fast enough that you can't overtake him with your cruise control set on 82 mph, then cut out in front of you, slowing down to 75, to pass a slower moving car.

These people suck.

After about 5 miles of dealing with this douche bag yesterday, I decided to play his own game.

I could see an oncoming car and knew he was going to be speeding up, once again, so I could not pass on cruise control, then jet out in front of me.

This time, I did not allow that to happen.

Instead, I sped up to.

I made sure to remain close enough that he couldn't jet out in front of me, but far enough back that I wasn't fully passing him, so he was lockied in his lane. The slower moving car was looming ever closer, and his speed was picking up.

So was mine.

It was a stale<b> mate </font></b>until the moment we had reached the slower moving car and I breezed past it. I had barely cleared the front of his car when he aggressively popped out behind me, waving his hand, visibly pissed.

I couldn't help but snicker in the rear view.

I win the passing game, douche bag!

He kept up with me for a minute because, that's what these idiots do.

When he realized the only thing keeping me behind him, was him, he gave up, and soon he was a dot on the freeway behind me. It's amazing how quickly these tools will disappear behind you.

What happened to the previous 5 miles when we were driving neck in neck??

Oh, that's right.... You were playing the game!

You don't normally drive that fast, you just didn't want to be passed.

    These types of people are the ones who normally look in the rear view mirror and wonder who caused the accident behind them
You are correct.

You'll have to share with me your successes and fails! LOL Perhaps I could learn a thing or two.

    When I find dopes like this one, if my temper does not get in the way first, I just slow way down, or stop somewhere and let them get on out of my life.
Thankfully I don't get very angry at stuff like this. I have, in the past, slowed down but the problem is, you always manage to catch up to them again regardless. Then you're in the same situation all over again. I feel like they do that on purpose. It's best to just get your opportunity to pass because they will not keep up with you and before you know it, they are a distant memory.

    Yep, we get those idiots too. It's kinda dangerous playing games at those speeds.
Our speed limit on the express way is 75, most people do 80. There was really no other traffic, this guys was just being a tool. Believe me, if I would not put myself or anyone else in any danger with driving antics.

    I love too catch the right moment when encountering someone like that too catch a slower moving vehicle in front of them; Blow past them and then slow down beside the slower moving vehicle and remain there for about the next mile with them stuck behind both of us !!!
LOL You're an antagonist! LOL

    Experienced an extreme example of this a few years ago. Asshole traveling slowly in the left lane, but increased his speed to prevent me passing him. I had more horsepower, but didn't want to get into an acceleration war, because even sub warp speed will get you jail time in VA.

    So, I began to slow down. To my surprise, this moron matched my speed the whole way...60...55...50... What a fucking dick!

    Around 45, I lit my luxocruiser's afterburner and left him in my dust, all while staying within the speed limit.
Oh, wow! Very interesting!! I've never really thought of doing the process in reverse.... LOL Left Hand Lane Hoggers are one of my pet peeves too! More than once I've passed on the right...

Where I live, exits are 10-20 miles apart and most of the drivers are just driving through trying to get to the upper peninsula. Thankfully, I don't get all mad and road ragey, so driving isn't an extreme sport for me. I know a few people who do, I prefer not to ride with them to go places.

    I hate those people that don't care if you change into their lane, just as long as it's behind them. The minute you hit your turn signal they speed up.
Omg, yes! I hate that too!! I don't understand the logic behind it.... I absolutely hate it when someone is riding my ass, so if I'm going slower, I'll stick to the right until they pass.

Believe it or not, it was! LOL I hate it when drivers do that stuff. If I know someone is driving faster than I am, I just let them pass me. I hate having people drive right on my ass.

    Little Dragon - "Twice"

    Twice I turn my back on you
    I fell flat on my face but didn't loose
    Tell me where would I go
    Tell me what led you on I'd love to know
    Was it the blue night
    Gone fragile
    Was it both men
    In wonder steady gone under
    Was it the light ways
    So frightening
    Was it two wills
    One mirror holding us dearer now
    Thought I had an answer once
    But your random ways swept me along
Thank you for sharing this song with me today.... I really liked it, I had to listen to it 3 times.
