Sometimes this is fine and works as expected. Sometimes it ends up with me going way under the speed limit as half of the other lane gets in front of me, as I continue to decelerate to keep proper stopping distance. (Bonus points if the people behind me also pass me because of this.)
It's occasions like those I'm glad I leave some wiggle room in my travel time.
I was driving outside of Phoenix one time in stop and go construction traffic. 5 Lanes were going down to like 2 or 3 and i was leaving space in front of me in a non-ending lane for people to merge in. I dunno what was up but people were not having itthat day. No takers no matter how many lengths i gave. Honking, cussing, etc. i kept on, doin my thing until a fuckin winnebago swerved from my lame behind me just to fill the gap i made.
I dunno if it was just hot that day or if phoenix hates merging or what, but i never forgot that wild shit
