I can understand disliking being stuck behind slow traffic. I find it especially obnoxious when you're on a long highway that's mostly single-lane no-passing with short two-lane sections for passing. A fraction of slow drivers drive ~10 under and then immediately speed up to 15-30 over on the passing sections (I suspect due to obliviousness and not malice). You can only pass 1 or 2 of these cars with my lowly 300 HP car even if I floor it coming into the passing section to eliminate turbo lag.
