      The problem isn’t that you are rewarding anyone anything. You are causing traffic and safety hazards if you are forcing someone to pass on right when it’s the law in most states to use the left lane as passing only.

        Driving a consistent speed on cruise control isn’t doing that, dumbass, it’s the guy riding your ass and trying to speed who’s made a hazard

        forcing someone to pass on right

        Show me the gun I’m using to threaten them into this, or explain how I make their wheels change direction

        Also: one lane roads exist & are way more common than multi lane roads for this kind of incident

        nobody forces someone to do anything. they CHOOSE to pass illegally in addition to speeding illegally.

        i’ll eventually move over when it is safe.

        and when you react during this period like a douche and roof your car from behaving like a child, guess who’s going to show up at your mva? this guy, dressed like the first responder I am. guess who’s going to remind you I have dashcam footage of your overreaction and behavior?

      Being an undeputized speed police sounds more selfish to me. I control everyone’s speed. I am god.

        If I’m going at or above the speed limit then one can pass if that’s not fast enough. If they can’t pass for whatever reason: that’s their problem, not mine

        - Just about every truck owner who pulls the above mentioned shit.
        

        Bonus points for lifted, extra big wheels, and whatever other shit country music suckered them into buying. Meanwhile their truck bed has no scratches, or is covered, and the truck itself only has seen the highway. They don’t own a truck - they own a clowned up SUV and a testosterone deficiency.
