Ohh, I like that. When travelling, nothing irritates me more than @#$%&! idiots who don't know when to move over. I get REALLY mad when the jerk stays there, even when there's little traffic and the right lane is wide open, or when he insists on crawling along there, 2mph faster than the traffic in the right lane but never drops to the right for a few seconds to give faster traffic a chance to pass.
But large trucks definitely need more slack. It's not like they can move over, quickly increase speed by 10mph to pass and then move back into the right lane.
I don't speed either like I used to. My preference is to set my cruise at 6mph over speed limit. Even so, if I'm passing and some hotshot in a Camaro comes up behind me I'll step on it so I can move out of his way.
I used to drive like a maniac, pedal to the floor whenever possible, doing about 95.

Ironically, I've never gotten ticketed for doing more than 13 over. I get ticketed when I've decided to take it easy, and then a short stretch downhill I forget to watch my speed....
