So an SEE friend posted on Facebook "if you tailgate me I will slow down to piss you off." In the many times that I have driven as a passenger in a car with LSE drivers I have noticed that they like to drive fast and sometimes tailgate as a way of giving a visual hint "I dive faster than you, move over" or will honk as a means of pushing the slow driver over to a slower lane. I noticed that the SEE post was directly opposed to the LSE behavior requirements to be courteous to other drivers and the LSE would not like this at all. I've know more than one who will ride right up on the ass of a driver who purposely does this honking and cursing. i just remain quiet because you can't reason with an angry person. You just have to remain calm and mention it later. I'm writing this post because I don't like the SEE post. It seems vengeful and mean even though the LSE reaction to it can just as well be too. What are your thoughts?

and that works pretty much every time to make them back off till I can move over. Which tells me they are so fixed on going fast they did not even see that I could not move over.
That did not feel entirely safe.
However, I felt a certain safety with him. Like, he was in no way a distracted driver. I remember on the way home we were both broke, but on his suggestion we pooled our bits of change and we stopped at a rest area - the one that was about 90 min. from home, last leg of the trip, so, just when we'd be tired - and he knew we had just enough money for a small cup of coffee to split.
