I loooove it on parts of my commute on turns and going straight. I find it works best with tractor trailers because once they commit to a turn or lane they keep it, I give them space though and never try and share a lane with them. It also helps that I can out accellerate a tractor trailer as they take it easy which allows me to keep my shield. Commuters, High Schoolers and Professionals in Vans I have found unpredictable in their path and accelleration and sometimes aren't worth it.
It does make you invisible though so if you don't position correctly and someone passes the car they won't see you until you are on their hood.
