is there a name for this?
i hate when i’m passing a slow vehicle in traffic, so i’m in the left lane, and the person behind me (without even giving me time/space to get back over to the right lane) immediately cuts off the slow car i was passing to then pass me on the right. like— i was going to change lanes when i had the space so they car(s) behind me could then pass me on the left too, but one impatient guy ruins it and now i can’t get over they’re on my right and they’re actually just slowing everyone down
i tend to give the slower vehicle extra space as i get back into the right lane to avoid being rear ended, just in case. but not only are they cutting off the slow vehicle, but they’re now passing me on the right because they could not wait 2 seconds for me to change lanes. and now i’m stuck in the left lane looking like a lane hog
90% of the time this happens after i put my blinker on to get back into the right lane. like i promise im not a left lane hog, people are just so impatient
edit: YES i am using my blinker early/as i pass. YES i am going at least 10mph over while i pass
edit 2: (just so i dont have to keep explaining this) im really not staying in the left lane abnormally long. i have my signal on and get over as soon as i can. the situation im describing isn’t someone in the left lane taking too long to pass or change lanes. the issue is an impatient driver behind me jerking in to the right lane when there isn’t a safe enough distance.
