I think lingering in the left lane is age related, but I also think passive/aggressive behavior is learned behavior (nurture over nature).
I was just trying to set the betting line. It could change, but I wouldn’t bet on it.
Did you ever get behind the old lady driving 15 miles an hour on a local road where you cannot pass, and your trying to get your kid to his/her event on time. The car first of all looks like there is nobody even driving it, as no head can be observed. You look in the rear view and see a line of 20 cars trailing. You just pray she is going to turn sometime soon. You know she would never contemplate pulling over to let everyone else get to wherever they are going.
I taught both my sons a simple rule about driving on 2-lane highways:
If ever someone has to pass you on the right, YOU fail as a safe, courteous driver. Your speed is irrelevant - When someone wants by, you let them by. It’s not your job to police the speed of others.
In this case, while I shouldn’t guess about it, I can almost feel the delight from the 18-wheeler driver, knowing that the two of them have boxed the a-hole Camaro in. How easy would it have been for the 18-wheeler driver to lift, momentarily, to allow the Camaro to get by the truck, and therefore contribute to a safer driving environment.
Truckers are taught Smith Driving Principles, and one of them is “Leave yourself an ‘out’.” He has failed in that regard, and shares a small degree of responsibility for the wreck that ruined his day.
