I agree with your comments, I hate tailgateing cagers, I would much rather just accelerate past.
When Behind a cage I you never know what is on the road that you may hit , that the cager passes over, it gives you no time to react to the lump of 4x2 sitting in the middle of the road.
I was following a cage going to Raglan one day a few years ago, around a bend the car swerved and brake quickly to miss a large sack of wood in the middle of the road, as I was too close to the car I did not see the wood till the last second, it was better luck than skill that I missed it.
Had i been following further back, I would have had plenty of time to react.
Go figure... Just another of lifes lessons
