this 40-something in a silver ls5 (corvette) i think with borla tips is swerving in and out of traffic behind me getting closer to me...so as soon as he gets behind me he revs like he wants to overtake me...right beside me (for those of you in Orlando this is on west 50 near the Auto Auction) there is a clunker nissan stanza... Well to try and persuade him to chill himself i stay right next to the stanza (the limit on this stretch is 45 we were doing about 33 give or take 2)...so i would every so often push up a car length and he would get behind me and sit on my tail so i'd engine brake back down to 35 and sit with the stanza again...we come to a light and me and the stanza part ways as his lane has fewer cars and the vette goes behid him...well lo and behold my lane gets moving quicker and i pass him again hehe... I get next to a chevy van and now were doing about 45 or so and my turn is coming up so I gun it to 65 and pull over into the suicide lane and i didn't look up cuz I knew what was coming...he opened it up and just went right by...sounded sweet but i think he needed to let up on the roids...that or leave earlier...

however, there is a "driver rule" (not law), that left lane is strictly for fast lane and passing lane. making a right turn and getting ahead of the driver in front of you in the left lane would get you pulled in CA for sure.

but i think the story goes is that the vette wanted to race? since he was tagging and kept on his ***. but watse of gas IMO. you knew the outcome, just risking your life/car/ticket for 3 seconds of fun

hell yeah I knew i'd never win anyways... still too gas in this area just for reg. is hitting 3.10...and the cops in this area are total spoilers....they LOVE the add on laws (i.e. stop you for speeding/racing....oh you have l.e.d. lights?....emmissions on your engine? new noise ordinance down here too) 25' and they can hear your music...even if its john tesh...they'll slap ya with a $70 tic..

I flash my lights at someone if I want them out of my lane.... This is for those idiots that go 65mph in the fast lane.

I chose the more explicit : "Too many freaks, not enough circuses" as my anti-tailGAYters weapon.

I've had people pass me and then laugh at it... seems to work :-)

i've seen a license plate holder: "If you're gonna ride my ***, you better be pulling my hair"

...didn't get to see what she looked like.

anyway, i think what you did is what pisses people off. you purposefully slow down. now if you didn't know any better, then fine.
