    I daily commute with a Prius 2012 but on the weekend I drive mostly the Forester or Minivan. But twice I had pickups tried to run me off the road when I tried to move to the right lane to exit with signal blinkers on. Pickup driver sped up and nearly made me get into an accident. Totally unnecessary as there was plenty of distance and I wasn't cutting anyone off but both times the same situation. Trying to change lanes in order to exit and a pickup truck refuse to give. Now I have never had this situation with any other car. But noticed this kind of behavior by some drivers on the road specifically when I'm driving the Prius.

    Now I am not a slow driver, I daily hit 75-83mph on the highways and my avg speed is 29mph.
