re: Aggressive.. pass on right etc.
Been following this thread for a while (a long while :)! ).
I generally agree that the less the other driver has to do, to avoid
hitting you, the better. But "invisible"??? YIKES! The last thing I want
is for some clueless driver to _not_ see me. Stealth driving, yes, but I
make sure they know I'm passing them (L or R) or that I'm behind them.
I've come up to drivers who don't check their blind spot and end up
squeezing me out of my lane.
At least wait till they see you in their rear-view before passing.
(Audi content) The best thing about stealth driving an Audi is that it
doesn't attract attention to itself. If I'm driving quickly, I usually
wait till a zoomy faster car passes me, then I use 'em for the
sacrificial cop bait! Saved me a few tickets over the years.
A number of years ago "Rodent Track" or "Car & Drivel" printed a list of
10 commandments for stealth driving. It was pretty good; perhaps someone
on this list has a copy?
resume lurk mode...
