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.

There's a range of behaviour I'll be considerate towards.

Of course there's a variance of acceptable speeds on a highway. People differ on what exactly that variance is. On a 110 k limit highway is that variance 100-130? Or 100-150? I'm going with the former. And I believe the more you're exceeding the limit, the less you can reasonably expect other drivers to accommodate your behaviour. Someone doing 120 being held up by a car doing 100 has more justification for feeling hard done by than someone doing 140 being held up by a car doing 120.
