I don't know, I think in some cases when it's an enthusiast, they feel like they have something to prove. I see similar types of behavior all the time when I spot another modded car in traffic. They notice me, and then they have to pass me and stay ahead even if it involves driving like a total douche. Another fine example is this story where the driver was so absolutely desperate to pass me that he used the shoulder. For whatever reason I guess they psychologically think it's a race or competition of some sort when in my head I'm sitting in traffic. idk

Besides that, I've come to the conclusion that everyone has no patients and nobody wants to use their brakes except for when it is to prevent them from rear ending someone. They would rather speed up and squeeze in, possibly causing an accident, then just slow down and be set back 1 or 2 car lengths. In the end, they are getting to their destination no faster. I see this type of thing literally every day.
