      I like to play a game where I stop pressing the gas and coast to see how slow I can get before they go around me. My record is 25mph on a 65mph freeway where the cars around us were going closer to 75 or 80. I was honestly shocked.

        As much as I hate trucks and speeding, going slow on a freeway is very dangerous and often illegal for this reason.

        Additionally on freeways and regular roads intentionally creating a situation where a driver might blindly speed around you could create a situation where someone crossing or otherwise on the road is injured or killed. Something like that happening isn’t something you want to live with.
