I think that depends how you define "strangers." My commute takes me over the same roads at the same time every day. I know who's on the roads. If there was someone whom I could draft, I'd know him/her. If I'd never seen him/her before, I'd introduce myself.

No, there's no one there for me to draft.

I think as long as you're cheerful and friendly, and make sure the other person is cool with the situation, it's all good.
