Why did the driver do that (overtaking)?

I was just driving back from a nearby town. The main road to my town is two-lane for 1.5 km to allow others to overtake.

I usually drive 100 km/h, which is legal, and since I know that others will overtake me, I always drive on the right.

In the rearview mirror I saw that there was a Mercedes driving behind me and I was sure that it would overtake me.

But he didn't do that and followed me for the 1.5 km instead of overtaking. Only when the road became one-lane on our side and two-lane for oncoming traffic did he overtake me very aggressively. He honked at me, drove into oncoming traffic, even though overtaking was strictly prohibited on our side, and gave me the middle finger.

Of course I was annoyed for a moment, but afterwards I wonder why he did that when he had enough space to overtake me 1.5 km earlier?

The spiders in road traffic are no less.

Because they usually don’t happen. No ads or fines.

In Germany, data protection is always used as a perpetrator protection, otherwise Dashcams would be more widespread.

There would have to be a catch premium in front of dringer and killer and there would be rest in the carton.

Unfortunately, there are motorists who feel insulted in person when someone simply runs in line with the rules and “blocks them”. And then, in this feeling of insulting, they get so pure that they also turn off the last existing brain cells and start any revenge action.

That such people can drive around freely and terrorize ordinary people shows how little controls and consequences are on our streets.

I don’t know why he did that. I only know that the other day on the highway from Halle home towards Berlin, on a three-track road for each direction, I wanted to pass a truck that overhauled another truck, which was not a problem in itself. However, the overtaking truck followed a car that drove so close to me in my lane that I had to throw the anchor, because it drove into my lane at significantly lower speed and obviously without having previously seen in the mirror. Not only that I was forced to brake for her enormously, she stepped in front of me in her car as if I was guilty of her misconduct. When she then moved back to the right after her overtaking maneuver and left me by it, she showed me another stink finger and the passenger also committed the passenger (in his favor, I would still admit that he could not have the whole situation in view, because for him the mirrors might have given a slightly different angle of view than for the driver). However, my Dashcam had recorded everything, even if I didn’t make a backup of it (for which also?) and therefore the recording should be overplayed again soon.

I have already answered this case with other questions. These are idiots on the street. Don’t let such people make you small. Too bad your side isn’t a flasher. Because that’s how I would have knocked out his Finkestinker.

Possibly, due to the sunny weather, any vapours have dissolved out of the interior.

It can be a psyche.

Or he had his passively aggressive day today.

(I got it. When he drove behind you, he had still made his IQ test on his smartphone and during overtaking he showed you his result.)

So you can remember his license plate and show him.

He wants to have an ass kick.

That would be killing and insulting… Without witnesses, it’s going to be hard, but it might be enough if he gets mail and bites in for a second.

Because he was crumpled? Marriage? Internal rest?

Don’t ask that. Everything would be possible and not you.
