I see this all the time on the road and I just don't get it. People would rather tailgate me for miles than change lanes and go around. Someone please explain why people are like this.

Meanwhile I'm changing lanes the the very moment I see a car going slower in front of me. One thing I absolutely hate is having to turn off the cruise control once it's on, and I use it everywhere, even on city streets (I drive a sports car so it's easy to accidentally speed if I don't).

Edit: I don't understand these downvotes. What's wrong with using the passing lane to pass? Why am I the asshole because someone is afraid to change lanes? I already drive 15 MPH over the speed limit, and always stick to the right when I'm not passing (even though no one else in my city does this). So if you're tailgating when I'm already doing my best to be more courteous than the average person in the road, that makes me the dick?

Someone please explain why this comment is triggering so many people. I really don't get it.
