I hate it when people pull out in front of you, are in no hurry to get up to speed and make you slow down and there are no vehicles behind you for miles.
With regards to the brake checks. I am an avid brake checker. I assure you, ride my butt and you will get a surprise. I'll push the limits from time to time as far as driving goes, but I know how well I react to things and dont push that and dont appreciate others that do.
I was going home from work once and was in the left lane doing about 75 in a 70. A vehicle came up behind me fast, so rather than making any lane changes I stayed where I was so as not to freak him out if he had planned going around. Well he didnt. I could see he had a woman in the passenger seat and a child in the back (it was an SUV). He got so close to me I could not see his head lights. So I gave him a few seconds to either back off so I could change lanes or go around himself. Didnt happen. So I hit the brakes pretty hard for a split second. I saw the womans eyes get as big as quarters and would you believe I saw a news paper fly up from the driver as he reached with both hands to grab he wheel? Some people are just idiots. I would have moved over had he not been so close. I hate when I get held up in the left lane so I dont like doing it to anyone else but he came up so fast I didnt want to make any moves that might cause problems.
