It’s crazy when you see people speed and overtake like maniacs just to see that they reached the gas station 20 seconds before you do.
I really think it hurts some people’s ego when they have to drive behind someone. “But but, i’m the king of the road…”
If I’m not behind you I don’t have to worry about you kicking up rocks onto my car, waiting for you to get off your cell phone at the light, I don’t have to slow down because you can’t handle taking a turn at the posted speed, ect. Yeah, I’ll be the guy in front using my gas for enjoyment and open road. If I cared about fuel economy, I’d drive a prius.
I’d rather drive like an asshole to get ahead of someone and only arrive 5 seconds before they do than deal with their shitty driving skills for 1 second more.
It’s almost like there should be more training before people are allowed to handle a multi-ton hunk of high speed metal.

I just like to go zoom :(
That said, I slow down to overtake other cars, or around other cars in general.
