I try and remain at the speed limit if I find myself on a roadway where passing is challenging, but even then people are impatient. Otherwise, when I find myself in those situations I simply try and signal from within the cab to pass me. That way I acknowledge the idiot in a hurry and send a clear signal that I have no intention of speding up.

They pass often spewing carbon from the buildup in their injectors and I laugh as I pass them by in traffic or coast past them through a traffic light because I have learned to time my stops.

No matter what the case the last laugh is yours ... at the pump.
