I am not really sure what the best approach is when the speed differential isn't huge between yourself and the car you're passing.
That's a bit of the problem in my scenario. Im towing a stockcar on a flat deck, not driving a semi, but I'm not about to cut in front of a semi the second I'm clear of his bumper, I want a cushion between us, and anyone who knows what it takes to stop a semi would know you want a gap.

I try to be very respectful of lanes and whose faster. I stay right except to pass, but no one is gonna pull over and pay my ticket if I'm speeding to make that pass, so I'll do it at the speed limit. When I see you coming I'll lay back and wait so you can go by. I'm not trying to be a roadblock or get in your face.
