Reply to comment by murphydcat in And What is the Deal with CT Drivers SPEEDING UP as you go around them...? by SnooPeripherals5518

I find a lot of time this behavior is due to texting as well, I think a lot of the anecdotes in this thread can be explained by hanlon’s razor: “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity”

Exactly. I think a lot of it comes down to inattention or lazy, bored or sleepy driving. Then when they realize they are going the speed limit and intended to be doing 70+ they speed up, right at the time you are driving past because you trying to pass is what woke them up.
