There’s a happy medium between camping out in the left lane for 20 Miles, and being one of the impatient assholes who tails you and flashes his lights because you’re not getting over fast enough for his liking.

The other day I was going about 80 and was overtaking the person in the right hand lane and was waiting to safely pass, but of course the guy behind me in a big arse truck comes rolling up going 90 and expected me to immediately get out of his way, so he starts honking and flashing lights and swerving until I got over when it was safe to do so.

Those idiots are the 2nd biggest problem to be completely honest with you.....2nd only to the side by side riding trucks.

If I can go around you on the right, you had plenty of room to get over. That's three 3/4 ton truck lengths

I say you're in the wrong. If you find yourself in this situation, then it's taking you too long to pass and you shouldn't have attempted it. You were unaware that you were going to impede another driver, that's on you. Check your mirrors for other vehicles approaching, be aware of your surroundings.

Saying the other guy was going 90 doesn't make what you did any better. It's not your job to police other drivers.
