I dont see anything wrong either with doing 50 in a 55 zone in the *right* lane
or with the behavior you describe above. Why call that kind of driver an
oblvious ****?!

Because he allowed someone to drive along side him for an extended
period of time. I normally give people around 15 seconds to get past
me. If I see it's going to take longer, I temporarily increase my speed
by 10 mph and maintain that for about 20 seconds before resuming my
previous cruising speed.

Eventually, they figure out they should either remain behind me, or pass
me quickly.

I call them "last minute lunkheads";LMLs.

(I decided "Larry" was not appropriate;not all Larrys are LMLs.
