You didn't mention anything about if you are already going above the speed limit.
9 times out of 10 the people in the left lane do not fall under both categories you mentioned.

I know
I'm just saying if people are gonna start stating rules and how people should be driving, they shouldn't leave out anything.
You know very well from his post, some ignorant person can easily argue and say "but duh I was above the speed limit already why should I move?"

What if I don't have any room to gtfo of the way, and buddy is endangering me by almost hugging my bumper? I had some douche do that to me off the highway 1 exit to gaglardi, I was going 80 in the exit, and he was tailgating me so close I couldn't even see his hood in my rearview mirror.

Its not about being the "better man" its about being a bigger asshole but in a safer manner. And it works.

Not at all. My DD (newer VW) never gets people constantly coming out of nowhere and tailgating me on back-roads/2 lane roads/Highways (where I stay in the right lane at the limit). However, every-time I take out the "toy car" stuff like that happens, without fail.

Believe what you want, but that's what happened. No use mentioning it anymore as it's in the past now; perhaps next-time I'll do it differently.

Case-in-point was this weekend. Had a beat-up MKI GTI tailgating the living shit out of me on West Saanich Road. I didn't want to play, but his tailgating pissed me off enough to boost away from him on a straight stretch; no need to floor it, just a light 3 psi pull.
please just shut the fuck up
