Perfect time for this thread. Today I had to run down to Vegas (160 mile round trip); on the way back I stopped off about a third of the way home to pick up a couple things. As I was about to back on the intestate, I guy in a chevy truck, cut across and cut me off...no biggy. As we got on the interstate, he stayed in the right lane and I jumped into the left, got up to speed (85) and went past him. Next thing I know, he's on my ass, so I pulled over and let him go. Got back into the left lane and continued on. He had pulled back over to right lane and slowed down. A few minutes later, I went past him again, still maintaining 85. A few seconds later, I noticed him coming up fast again, again, I pulled over to let him pass. Right after he did, he jumped over to the right and slowed down to 75...WTF.
Up to this point, I was just driving the way normally do in light traffic on this section of interstate. Now I was getting irritated, pulled into the left lane and hammered it. Pulled several car lengths ahead and slowed back down to my cruising speed. Notice he once again had jumped over and sped up, but, fortunately, I had passed a few big rigs and a couple pulled out to pass the others and he got caught behind them. He never had the opportunity to catch up again.
What the heck was this guy's problem?! I didn't get upset, didn't give him a dirty look or even look over and didn't jump in front of him when I first passed him after he cut me off at the on ramp, just figured he didn't see me and didn't give it a second thought! Rant/venting over
