I posted this on the bird board and am surprised at some of the responses. Curious what you guys think:
Just curious what others deem appropriate driving etiquette. Say you are cruising along in the left lane about 80 in a 65 and passing all the cars in the right lane. Somebody gets on your bumper and tries to push you or persuade you to get out of their way. Do you: Speed up? Slow down to change lanes so he can pass? Ignore him? If you ignore him, how about when you get to a big brake in right lane traffic? Do you: Move over and let him go? Ignore him and let him go around you? |
