A push from air ??

Well the other day on my way to work I was cruising @65mph in the right lane when a trucker wanted to have some fun with me. He pulled up so close behind me that I could safely count the bugs in the grille.

Funny thing though, without any further acceleration I began to speed up, so I let off the gas to maintain my speed, but was the wall of air he was pushing, actually pushing me?

Curious ..
