Number 5 - In the UK, it is against the Highway Code (the Rules of the Road) for a vehicle being overtaken to accelerate, so, assuming a similar rule in the USA, the idiot is the one being overtaken.

@demophys4883 in the UK, the speed limit for such vehicles is 60mph (vehicles with speed limiters are slightly slower) on similar roads, but they still overtake each other because onetruck is doing slightly more than the other.

@johnt.848 is that the US rule? Because Rule 168 of the Highway Code says the opposite.168 Being overtaken. If a driver is trying to overtake you, maintain a steady course and speed, slowing down if necessary to let the vehicle pass. Never obstruct drivers who wish to pass. Speeding up or driving unpredictably while someone is overtaking you is dangerous. Drop back to maintain a two-second gap if someone overtakes and pulls into the gap in front of you.

@johnt.848 and which rule in the Highway Code is that?

@johnt.848 and yet it says nothing about speeding up which you maintain is OK. Hmmh, can't see how that helps you. Rather it seems to contradict you.

@johnt.848 stop shifting the goal posts. I never said speeding, but accelerating, which is not the same. I can see why you're not a driving instructor any more
