Now, I suppose I could just stomp on the gas of my Dodge Grand Caravan with a wife and two kids in it just so I don't inconvenience a guy doing 135. But frankly, I don't feel the need to accommodate rageaholics doing 25 k over the limit who can't ease off the gas for a few seconds. Driving way faster than the flow of traffic is at least as dangerous as driving slower.

If you're not going to be considerate of others, they are not going to be considerate of you.
I am not condoning their behavior (neither the speed, nor - especially - driving too close), but if you say (essentially) 'screw them', you're on your own.
