    Except you said that you eased off the accelerator. So you were comfortable going faster. But decided not to because you wanted to teach her a lesson.
    And?

    I don't really see what I did as being wrong.

    What, exactly, do you think I should have done instead in the circumstances?

    Pull over to let her by? That would have meant either colliding with another car or pulling onto the shoulder, which I won't do for a non-emergency vehicle.

    Speed up to clear traffic? That would have been less safe.

    Slow down? Clearly not, since you seem to have an issue with that.

      What you did was illegal and if a cop had seen you, you'd have gotten a ticket. You could have caused an accident. You should have maintained your speed until you could safely pass.

        Alright.... Between the FTSTS (Failure to See the Suck) and the Fratchy argument, that's enough. You wanna debate how the OP should have handled it, take it to Fratching, please.
