Unless you're passing a semi, give those big mfs 3 car lengths before you switch lanes

For passenger cars and trucks I'm passing, I wait until I see a headlight in my right side view mirror before lane change.

For semis, I wait until I see both headlights in my rear view mirror.

Same rules, but I use the 1/2 headlight in rear view mirror. 1 for person cars, 2 for semis.

I also try and speed up to not hinder flow. However, I often refrain of going over 20%. I am not made of money like some, and your gas per milage goes up the faster you go.
