re: Drivers who squeeze in front of you at 75+MPH on I-10?

those frickers! my go to method is to let off the gas and let them in. Then , just to be a dick, I let off the gas just enough to maintain my 4+ car length distance behind them.
Sometimes, to be a real a-hole, i'll hit the decelerate button on my cruise control when i let them in.
and if i'm in a really shitty mood i'll check my lights to make sure i don't have the high beams on.

This I randomly honk at people I see hitting their brakes with no cars in front of them. That shite drives me insane.

If I can get them to fall in behind me, I generally take the time to really clean my windshield.

Maybe if you'd quit hogging the left lane prick. If I have room to pass you, you have a minimum of two car lengths you could've gotten over in

Exactly. It's the passing lane, not the "fast lane".

True. However, I prefer to simply downshift when being tailgated.

There's a chance yall are the assholes I'm talking about. I can't know because I can't see what you're talking about, but there's also a chance you just drive irresponsibly close behind people.
Do you also drive in the shoulder when there is bumper to bumper traffic?

No one can maintain speed on I10. Why? Because semi-truck drivers who have their cruise controls set at 71mph (so they don't set off their company installed vehicle black boxes) take all of 15 minutes to pass the semi-truck that's going 70mph in the right lane...

I am looking for new ways to handle these idiots in the morning.

sometimes this is a necessity because a driver will sit behind an a-hole locking up the left lane without signaling them(flashing lights, blowing horn, etc) to move over. just because you are scared to let them know to move over doesnt mean that I am.

YES. frick these people to death. I cannot understand why they haul arse, slow down, haul more arse, slow down.
But is there anything more satisfying than witnessing a moron speeding menace getting pulled over?

Maybe you need to take a reading comprehension class. I said when not holding up the lane.

I will also play passing chicken with people and just pretend I don't see them speed up to block me. Good times

Just this evening on I-10 E between Seigen and Highland, it was bumper to bumper stop and go from 0-20 MPH. This guy comes rolling in the left shoulder at at least 50 MPH. About 200 feet in front of me, he apparently passes a state stopper. He gets pulled over. I enjoyed the double honk I gave him as I passed him getting a ticket for lord knows how much money.

The Ot seriously feels that flashing you lights is an aggressive move. Honestly.

My way of "making a hole" usually involves encroaching into their lane, waiting for them to hit the brakes and make a gap and then I accelerate into the spot. It works really well. Especially if you act like you do not see the car.
