I am curious about the psychology of this behavior. Or people trying to prevent zipper merging, which is a specialty of Minnesota drivers who think everyone should get over and suffer together. It does not harm you if someone else get’s where they are going slightly faster than you. I have often experienced this at work too, if one group of teachers get 5 minutes more prep than another group everyone freaks out. Making another group get less to make it fair doesn’t actually benefit you in any way, it just makes everyone more miserable. I think it’s why so many working class people are against a minimum wage increase. It’s really mysterious to me.
