Human ego or American ego? Is this also a big thing in other countries or mainly just the US?

Last week I was cruising down the middle lane of the interstate. I drifted over a little to the left but didn’t come near the line. Black dude camped out in my blind spot, honks at me like I was about to hit him. I started laughing and throwing up fake gang signs at him. He rolls down the window and starts trying to yell something at me. I mean, does he really think I’m going to roll down my window and scream and yell back at him? So I just laughed a little more and threw up more fake gang signs. He must have realized how futile his attempt at raging was because he rolled it up and drove off. Now, big caveat is that he was a middle aged nerdy looking black guy. I would not have done that to a Dodge Charger with tinted windows.

You definitely drive like a girl.

I cut off several idiots trying to pass me on the right and then leap in front of me and make me slam my brakes in heavy traffic on I 12 West just yesterday.Talk about some pissed off road Ragers. F em!
I was doing 80-90 as often as I could , but sometimes traffic to ahead blocks you up and you have to wait to make slow pass because some idiot is in the left lane going 60.

In a busy area, If I’m going 12-15 MPH over the limit in the left lane, that’s more than enough. I’m not getting over and getting trapped in the right lane.
Now if it’s just me and another driver in this scenario sure I’ll get over. If you want to go 30 over the limit that’s your choice.

why someone is in your lane.
Maybe because state law says you're supposed to shift a lane to your right if you are able to do so, and makes no mention of speed (under, at or over the speed limit) at all.

I love all the insecure “Get out of the left lane!” replies

I mean…. The left lane IS an exit only lane on the bridge…. So…. Please…. Get the frick over. Don’t come to a complete stop trying to merge at the last second.
It’s not like there are multiple signs that say “left lane exit only” or anything…..

I mean…. Clearly I wasn’t referring to an unorthodox scenario like that haha

Stop acting like youre more important than the other 10,000 people trying to get somewhere. Get the frick out of the way. It takes minimal effort.

Adaptive cruise must be completely useless over there. You would constantly have people cutting in front the gap it leaves with the car ahead of you.

Came up to a roundabout, yielded briefly, dropped in behind two other cars, I noticed an old lady in a car to my right gesturing at the car in front of me. When I went by, she honked and shot me a bird. I just waved back.
I think what happened was that the city added signs to remind you to stop if a pedestrian was in the crosswalk, and she thought that it was an actual stop sign, turning the roundabout into a 4-way stop (like that would make any sense).
In any case, she's probably over it now, I hope.

Adaptive cruise
If you're a Tesla in the left lane, it's now become a game to watch how fast your car adjusts when I have to pass you on the right and back into "their" lane. Adaptive cruise should never have been adopted for use in high volume traffic situations. People just check out.

I experienced a little of this yesterday, we had an hour drive at 7 am Sunday.
No one on the road.
Pull out 1st light red, sit 2-3 minutes with zero cars around.

I just don’t understand why driving, particularly in Baton Rouge, is such a competitive thing. It’s like everyone is racing each other out here and trying to prevent others from getting ahead of them.

Because you'll pull out in front of me, and your speed will vary +-10mph depending on how engaged you are with your phone or a passenger. Or you'll abruptly tap your brakes for no apparent reason. Or you'll be the dick that takes 3/4 of a mile to accelerate to a 40mph speed limit, being beat off the line by a school bus and an Amazon truck. Or you'll happily ride nearly side by side with another car for miles on end, fricking up all traffic behind you for at least 20 minutes after you've mindlessly coasted to your pitiful destination.
