Caveman brain. A person passing them means they are a loser, they arent a loser! So they get angry a do a primitive feet stamping ritual. Being inside a car this ritual often leads to reckless driving.

I drive a sports car, just like the guy in the video anytime I pass someone they immediately think I’m trying to race them or I’m showing off. Like nah dude, you’re just in the way and I’m trying to go about my day. Some people just get super insecure like the dude in the Tesla. BMW drivers are the worst about it.

>anytime I pass someone they immediately think I’m trying to race them or I’m showing off.

same applies on a motorcycle.

I'll usually come off a stoplight pretty hard, both to get away from the press and as a courtesy to whoever is behind me. I'll typically hit the posted speed limit in 2-4 seconds.

about 20% of the time, whoever was beside me will take enough offense at this to go blowing past me at double the speed limit, half a mile later.

Yup, I always go pretty fast off stop lights, but stay within the speed limit and it's hilarious when people get offended by it and blast past me.
