No, it really won't. If I, the lead car, am driving slower, I have a greater reaction time for what's ahead of me. If they're already upset that I'm not doing 10+ over, then start riding my ass to the point that I decide to slow down, I don't care how much more upset they get. And if they rear-end me due to their own impatience, that's on them. No matter their reason, if they're traveling too close for my comfort, I'll start maliciously complying with the speed limit.

While living in another state for a few years, I was maintaining adequate distance on the interstate, until someone jumped in the gap and slammed on his brakes, causing me to hit him. I would've been able to stop, had the gap been there, but this 🤡 had other ideas. And I still was fined for "following too close", despite how it happened. So yeah, I'm cautious. And as it's already been mentioned, I also don't do this in the passing lane when there is one. You want to pass me? Pass me.
