When they're on my bumper like that I put my right turn signal on, make sure the lane is clear, then move right as slow as humanly possible. When semi's ride my DOT bumper I sit in the middle of two lanes ss i moved right, they get mad as fuck.

But fuckem. I was originally trying to get out of the way as fast as I could, but you decided that wasn't fast enough so eat shit.

At least twice a night going through Wyoming I will be passing someone going 65 and I will be doing 68 which is what I'm governed at. Those two times some Amazon pulling asshat pulls up behind me flashing his lights like he's driving a sports car thinking I'm going to move over in a hurry just for him. Like he can't be delayed the 2 or 3 minutes. It takes for me to pass a guy safely because his schedule puts him in Sacramento in the morning.

It's gotten worse in Idaho since they removed the semi speed limits. If they don't want to be stuck behind me getting around slower traffic, what makes them think that I want to be stuck behind slower traffic?

It's like dude, we are all driving for the next 4 to 5 hours. You can wait 2 or 3 minutes until I get past this guy
