They shouldn't get frustrated, but sometimes they do, and occasionally you'll get somebody who will push past you and then go and sit on the tail of the next guy. They only advance themselves one place in the queue, which gains them maybe a second or two, and it makes no sense in the overall scheme of things, but that's what they do. That's why I suggested trying to avoid the gap getting provocatively large, for want of a better expression.

If they're that pushy - I'd rather they were in front of me than behind me anyway.
Yes, I think you're right about that.

And if you want to irritate them more you can anticipate the moment they decide to undertake you and go with throttle up to close the gap. :-)) DaveK.

Tempting - but I'd rather not. If they're so irrational that they can't contain themselves I certainly don't want to annoy 'em.
Unless of course it's a police car coming the other way.

Never understood this attitude. I was on the M25 in slow moving traffic (20mph) a couple of weeks ago. I like to keep a gap ahead of me so ~I don't have to do the stop/start tango.
Ruddy coach driver behind kept moving up close, as if to push me on a bit, even though the view ahead was full of brake lights. He would move to the left or right, pass me, get stuck when the traffic came to a stop, only to see me pass again at a constant speed.
