Easy fix, go 10 mph under. If they are still a dick, keep slowing down

I've had a much easier life following a super easy rule for highways:

Left lane: Passing/Fast

Middle lane: Cruising

Right lane: Exit/Slow

If I'm in the left lane doing 110 MPH and there's a pickup truck right on my ass, I'll signal and go middle lane and just cruise for a bit.

9 times out of 10, I'll see that exact same pickup or other car on the right shoulder with a state trooper writing him up.

It's happened so often in my life, it's made me believe in "instant karma". Just let them pass.

"Never be the fastest car on the highway" is a pretty good rule for avoiding state troopers.

I've been following this advice myself, but maybe with a bit of an ulterior motive... Being the second fastest car on the road, maybe a mile or two back from the fastest car on the road means they get pulled over and I don't.

(On a more serious note, I get my speed fix on the race track now. I've matured enough to realize speeding on public roads isn't worth the risks, especially when there's others on the road that could be affected)
