2005 insight vs 2013 volt repsect

I usually drive my little 2005 insight to work and I always stay in the right lane behind a slow car if possible otherwise 70mph. I can not believe how many people drive very fast right up to my bumper then finally swing over and pass in the empty left lane.
Had a chance to drive my wifes Volt for a week on same route and what a difference! I drove the same way as above, never above 70. Much more respect for the bigger volt, no one tailgated and then swung out in left lane flooring it.
Note:
The Volt is such a nicer car to drive 30 miles one way to work. I cost me 29 cents to go to and from work each day (I could plug in at work-yes). However the Insight is more fun as there is more thinking and skill involved to hit +70mpg. cost= $1.97 a day.
