Just what is it that motivates some LLB's to do what they do?
The situation I encountered today: US17 SB going into Brunswick, 4 lane highway seperated by a median, posted SL 50MPH. I'm in the right lane doing appx. the SL and in the left lane is some old bag doing appx 40 - 45 MPH with a couple of pick-ups on her tail and another car to her immediate right going slightly faster than her (and slightly slower than me).
Getting the impression that one of these pick-ups might decide to make a lane change without looking, I decide to back off a little bit to give room to the pickups so they could use the right lane to pbutt this hazard, but what does this LLBing nincompoop do but to slow down to keep her car at about my 11 o'clock. Fortunately, the car immediately ahead of me had cleared the lane hog enough that I was able to accelerate and pbutt the lane hog and then slip to the left and pbutt the other car (with the pick- ups right behind me).
