Exactly. If I’m driving a truck and I’m worried the truck in front of me is about to explode or have a part fly off it, I’m not going to pass them at 1 mph. If I can pass faster, I’ll pass quickly. If I can’t, I’ll hit the brakes and put a huge amount of distance between us. In a safety emergency, you want to increase your separation as fast as possible. You do that by braking, not by slowly passing.
If it’s a “safety issue,” it’s definitely not happening at a 1 MPH speed differential. C’mon, now.
