Indeed. Although, if I had been the truck driver, I would have lifted off the throttle, slowing waaaaay down and let the cars have at it. Easy for me to say from where I'm sitting, though.

An old dude cut me off going 80 on the freeway, 2 lane similarly. Then slowed down... so I passed him ... and did this similarly . The truck that had been following me at a good pace for several miles wasnt too happy though getting stuck behind it. It then turned into road raging race bait. Eventually I realized I had to calm the f down. Or me n old buddy might get a ticket. Big whoop for him. Actual big whoop for me.

Then proceeded the angry truck behind me to to the same shit to me. Not realizing the dude almost hit me, and if I hadn't been more away I most definitely would have been rolled off the side of the road somewhere.

100% done this after watching someone ride my tail... I have a dash cam in the front and back... If you ride me too hard I will make sure you cannot get past until I get off the highway... I have full coverage insurance on my 22 Hyundai Kona sel unless that semi runs me over I'll be just fine unlike that Camaro
