Lately I have given up finding humor in people throwing their arms up in the air over nothing. When people finally figure out they can simply pass me, I golf clap them by.
It's hard to prove you were coasting. A witness would be hard pressed to see you were intentionally slowing down via coasting. Brake checking on the other hand, is extremely easy to spot.
