see what pisses me off is that THIS pisses people off. It's called FLASH TO PASS. It is not a sign of aggression, I am not flashing to say fuck you, I am not trying to blind you, it's just that I don't have your phone number and can't call you and politely say "Hey, I am behind you, I don't know if you saw me approach you in your rear view or not but you might have noticed I was going faster until you became an obstacle to me. I would very much appreciate it if you would find a decent gap to your right to occupy for a short time while I make a pass in this lane which is designed for me to pass you, then you can come back into this lane and continue the passes you were making, just slower than I wished to travel, if I am going too fast and get a speeding ticket for it, that's a problem I will have to deal with, have a nice day." I'll flash, because I want to pass, it is nothing personal, and I am not trying to be a dick, I just assumed you didn't notice me, and would like to be noticed so that you can help me properly use the lane to be on my way, but no, people take it as a sign of "hey asshole, move the fuck over" which it is not.
