I tend to stick in my middle or right lane, and go with the flow of traffic since I'm never in a rush (the only rush is that I can leave early so I don't need to be driving in a rush). Even in the right lane with a car in front of me, someone has to ride their BMW up on my Caprice's ass.
So, I grew tired of them. Brakes? No. Engine braking? You bet. With my 4L60E, I don't use Overdrive on city roads because it'll just hunt. So in regular drive, it never goes above 3rd gear and TCC lockup the way it feels, so if someone comes up on my ass, I drop it into 2nd. They freak out fast and lock their brakes because I had no brake lights to signify I was slowing down at all.
I'm only 33 (34 next month), and I'm tired of their crap and don't even care if I get rear ended at this point. They are the one's riding so god damned close I can't even see their headlights, they would be at fault, I didn't want to hit the squirrel.
