Tailgating a Z in a family sedan

I'm in full agreement about just taking the high road and letting whoever by and through and I'm not seeing eye-to-eye with the speed they want to run at.

But the mentality and whatever complex of other drivers in the city can be something else, particularly in lane-blocking situations. I'll make the point if safe: it's not their lane, they're not fast the fastest car on the road, quite frankly I can control the relationship between myself and the other car as I please if we really want to go that route.

The other day when I was looking to get in a lane....guy who was already in it and ahead was moving pretty slow so I figure I'll casually pass, then switch over. This guy keeps matching to deny me. All of a sudden he ****ing cares.

Not to give off the impression I'm reckless (no excuses but yeah it was a clear road), but by the time I could get in the lane, he must've literally topped out (older Cherokee). Of course I could've just taken the position at will if I really wanted, but the lengths people can go to desperately and pointlessly have their way.

And that's "taking the high road"?

Did you read his post? Or are you just trying to ?

Taking the high road was clearly in reference to letting others pass. He then gave an example of trying to pass someone who couldn't take the high road and just let him by. So the answer to your question is no, the Cherokee did not take the high road nor was it ever suggested that he did.
