This happened on my way back from Kansas City with some friends on Sunday. I passed a yellow Mustang, which looked to be a V6, with my cruise set at 65 in a 65. I cut out about 1:20 of video because there’s noting to see, but during that time the speed limit went up to 70 and I increased my cruise control to 75. That’s when the Mustang came flying past me, and you can see the rest. The guy backed off after the video ended. At the time I was sure he wanted to race me. Looking back, I genuinely have no idea what he was doing. The guy in the Mustang had his window down, but never looked our way.

I muted the audio because it’s just Elton John playing over us talking.

(For those sick of Mustang jokes, feel free to provide us with a different horse to beat to death

I think he just wanted to be a douche... pace you so no one else could get by...

I was driving around Albany over the weekend, and I encountered a new Ford Escape that was acting similar. Except in my case, I did everything I could to get away from the asshole. If I accellerated to 80, he match. It I dropped to 60, he did the same. Very unnerving. After a while we came upon a group of cars that I was able to get behind while he went ahead and I lost him.

I’m not 100% positive he was doing it intentionally, but I hate it when I run into these drivers. I use cruise control religiously. I think you should be shot if you don’t on the interstate.

Same thing happened to me Friday with a guy in a Grand Prix GXP, becasue of course. I was speeding trying to get across Michigan, he must of saw that as an invite to race.

Casually passed him no problem, then he did a flyby of 100mph or so. When we passed him again GF said he never looked over. Do these people have to prove their car is fast too?

Bruh I can speed too, see? SEE?! DID YOU SEE?!?!?!

A buddy of mine has a GTP supercharged, and boy if it isn’t a dead heat between him and my Crossfire.

But yes, the baser models seem to be driven by people who want to be fast but aren't.

Here's a good replacement for the audio you muted.

some people think they are being cool or something doing that... personally, I get claustrophobic when there are cars around me. I like to either slow down or speed up to get away from idiots. In my mind, you can’t crash into anyone if there is no one around you.

I noticed people NEVER do this if you have tints and they can barely see you.

Honestly it’s because he’s unaware of how passing lanes work and took your passing then moving to the right lane as an act of superiority.

shooting seems a bit overboard. You should be allowed to remotely deflate their tires slowly so they have to pull off and get more air.

of course, if they don’t realize they are pacing you, they may not realize they have no air so they might kill a school bus full of innocent puppies.

Fuck these people with a rusty cork screw

Passing some people seems like a challenge to them.

If I had a dollar for every V6 Mustang that’s tried to race me for no reason, my degree would’ve been way cheaper.

Some people just have poor foot control and never learn to use the cruise. I hate riding with my cousin since his throttle control is on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, off again, ad nauseam.

If it weren’t a yellow mustang, it could have been my cousin.

I don’t think this was that since a) he flew by pretty quick, and b) he was using the brakes as well as the gas.

Not for the Mustang guy, he was being a cornball because he thought you were trying to be superior to him. But for this random loser who decided to tailgate and pace that person.
