This makes the oncoming car have to slow down and/or even pull off the side of the road so that this entitled IDIOT can go on by me. And then afterwards sometimes the oncoming car will honk at ME as if it's my fault!

It's like these people not only feel entitled that they have more rights to the road than me, but apparently even more rights to the road than the oncoming car.

Yesterday a truck actually did pass me pretty close, while a Mazda Miata coming the other direction had to pull off the side a bit. Obviously the Miata would have been the loser if a collision had happened. I wonder if a small car passing me would do the same thing if a truck/SUV were coming the other way.

I just don't get what's going through these idiot drivers' minds.
I've had this same thing happen a couple of times. Lots of things are going through their minds, and none of those things are related to the task at hand
