Have you ever been on a road with slight hills and curves and get stuck behind some cunt going 5-10 under the limit the entire time, and each time a passing lane opens up there just happens to be oncoming traffic and when there is no passing zone, there is no oncoming traffic, and this continues for 10 miles?
Is there a name for this phenomenon?
>>
>>28991522
yeah it's called being an asshole. maybe you should carry a gun in your car so you can tailgate them and then threaten their life when you do get to pass
>>
>>28991522
>Is there a name for this phenomenon?
Ya, not having 500+ horsepower to pass with ease anywhere.
>>
>>28991522
If your car wasn't slow it wouldn't be an issue.
>>
honestly at that point i usually pull over and chill for a minute. no point passing them, there'll only be another useless cunt further up the road
>>
>>28991522
it's called SKILL ISSUE
>>
> some cunt going 5-10 under the limit
I'm usually way lower than that.
>>
the people that go 5mph under the speed limit are the ones who don't ever crash, don't ever get pulled over, don't tear up their vehicles, and don't raise insurance rates for everyone else. try to be like them.
>>
>>28991547
Fuck it... Just cruise behind them until an opportunity to pass arises. Then take it or continue to cruise.
>>
>>28991557
>just drive like it's the 40s dude!

The issue isn't power, it's not being a nigger who passes on a double yellow.

>Tfw they keep slamming the brakes mid corner
>>
>>28991522
yes, and for added joy they ALWAYS fucking floor it when a passing lane does open up, that way they can be the little cunty faggot gatekeeper of the road.
(this happens literally every single time i have to drive from eugene OR to bend. every. fuckign time. murdering those FAGGOT CUNTS should be legal. )
>>
>>28991617
>who passes on a double yellow
More like guidelines that actual rules*
>>
>>28991629
Sure. In some places the double yellow makes no sense, but in a slightly curvey hilly road, double yellow have a legit meaning.
>>
>>28991539

You cant even handle 300
>>
>>28991634
I'm not saying pass into blind corners.
But you clearly haven't driven a car that has 5x the power than the average slow moving car.

40mph-90mph with my race car is about 2 seconds
>>
>>28991695
Nigga, my race car has 501rwhp, 468 torque
My daily driver has 311hp and it's slow as fuck
>>
>>28991718
I should've added I meant "my" cars in Forza Horizon 6
>>
>>28991557
they're the scared and timid drivers that pull halfway into the road before realizing a car is coming and then stop instead of finishing their turn and getting out of the way
>>
>>28991725
Nah nigga, heads cam LS3.
I was expecting 450rwhp ended up with over 500.
>>
>>28991522
>slows down to a crawl in corners
>flat out on straights
the worst
>>
>>28991714
My car has good power, and I have zero issues passing slow drivers.
I pass all the fucking time. I hate being stuck behind anyone, even if they are going 10mph over the limit, I will drop to 4th (1:1), hit 90+ and pass them just to not be behind them.
The problem is passing on any hills or curves where there is a double yellow for a damn good reason.
On those roads, if its double yellow, its nearly impossible to safely pass. doesn't matter how fast you can get from 40 to 70, if you are coming up a hill, you shouldn't pass.
>>28991624
I feel your pain. I was driving to Portland from SF in a rental, as soon as I hit Oregon all the drivers turned to utter assholes. Speeding up to not let you pass, etc. Thankfully I had a proper V8 Charger and passed with ease.
At least the roads improved over comiefornia.

How does that work? If they are going above the speed limit the distance should increase. That trick also works if they are below the speed limit. Just drive even slower and you won't be stuck.
>>
>>28991779
>Portland from SF in a rental

Maybe they saw the CA plates and reacted ? Your kind aren't exactly super welcome here. But at least I-5 is 2+ lanes. the 2 routes between eugene (~350k for the metro) and bend (~250k metro pop) are predominately 2 lane rural highways vs a proper 4 lane interstate.

(Which the original intent behind the interstate system was for all state capitols and all cities over 80k to be connected, it's time for an update!)
>>
>>28991782
I drive 10-15mph over the limit at all times.
I pass police officers sitting on the side of the road going 10-15 over all the time.
Ive spoken to local residents who say they got pulled over for going 25 over on the same stretch of road.
Cops don't tend to care if you're going 10 over.
I am white.
I also know how to maintain my speed and dont loose 10mph going up a slight incline like 98% of drivers tend to do. Even if they are going 65 in a 55, I want to do 70, and so they are in my way. I pass. simple as.

If I am stuck behind multiple vehicles going slower than I want to, I will pull over and chill for a few. Count to 30 from the last car and then continue my drive. I pull over again when I catch up to them. Rince and repeat, this way I drive without anyone in front for the duration of the journey.
>>
>>28991522
Learn the technique of victory or death.
Leave a big gap, drop a gear and when the lane opens up, let your engine scream. NPCs can not react fast enough and the sound of an engine screaming will make them freeze in fear.
>>
>>28991789
>dont loose 10mph going up a slight incline like 98% of
The point of slowing down is that you will regain the speed after you cross the top. If you kept the speed you'd have to brake on the decline in order to avoid speeding.
It's illegal to drive faster than the speed limit, it's not illegal to drive slower.
>>

Why are you white

had a bunch of bikes do this on an otherwise fun road. jesus christ was it fucking annoying. finally got to pass them and enjoy what little road was left at least
>>
>>28991718
even 300hp would be great. my daily driver had 150hp when it left the factory 25 years and 240k miles ago. it's just painfully slow compared to everything else on the road today.
>>
>>28991811
>its illegal to drive faster than this posted limit on this long as stretch of road!
Yeah thats how they control you
I bet you stop at red lights and stop signs too when no one is around
>>
>>28991522
There's one 9 mile road like that where I live, I thankfully don't HAVE to use it but once a month or so I'll take it since it's the best route to my favorite pizza place. I try to remain calm and go their pace but it does not take long at all for a car to catch up behind me, then 2, then 5 and I'm now I'M the asshole for not passing since it's suicide for anyone behind me to attempt a 2+ car pass on this twisted road. Just a stressful road through & through.
>>
>>28991912
next time you want pizza get it delivered and leave the roads for professional drivers.

500 is plenty for a track car

Remember making a similar thread a while ago
Probably the most frustrating part is that no opposing traffic ever turns up near the blind spots, but its still stupid to take the chance

Oh god I had motorcycles on my tail coming down from the mountains in the Nantahala NF in North Carolina, they are NEVER patient. You will just get tailed through EVERY hairpin turn. Sucks!

I've had a few times of waiting behind someone slow, but I also had at least two instances where someone was going slow on a winding road and pulled over to let me pass as soon as they could.

Worse is people who follow the speed limits EXACTLY in towns, or worse, go 10 under, old folks, in small towns, that slows you down and no way to escape.
>>
>>28992392
I saw a hairpin turn on a mountain road the other month where they installed a wide-angle mirror at the turn so you could see if someone was coming. That should be more common.
>>
>>28991971
In all my years of driving that has literally never happened once.
>>28991976
Most places have defaults for when there's no posted limit

Isn't it the road ragers that try to min-max by driving as fast as possible to meet some imaginary deadline instead of simply enjoying the ride?
>>
>>28992399
>You will just get tailed through EVERY hairpin turn. Sucks!
I guess they're going to have to slow their roll there.

>Worse is people who follow the speed limits EXACTLY in towns, or worse, go 10 under, old folks, in small towns, that slows you down and no way to escape.
A lot of small towns are speed trap towns, so the modus operandi is to never give the local sheriff there an excuse to give you a ticket.

That lady, under maximum sentencing, will earn a 45 year sentence. This is effectively a life sentence for her. The public court is sick of reckless and negligent driving and are making examples out of those who screw up.
>>
>>28992663
driving as slow as possible is the opposite of enjoying the ride.
there's a happy medium, and it sure as shit is not 50mph (before you cunt at me, it's obviously affected by the actual road conditions, don't be a faggot.)

You're the cunt who does the default 50 km/h in a 100 zone until you see a sign. Ask yourself, are you afraid for your safety or are you afraid of a penalty because you live in a totalitarian police state where police seek out opportunities to fine people.

Get a solid metal bumper and crash into them. When they pull over thinking you'll exchange information, drive off. They're too slow to catch you.

>I immediately get stuck behind another slowfag

I’m sure there’s a lesson here, but those people are psychos.
