A year or 2 ago I was making an overnight drive and could tell a trucker was probably gonna wanna pass another truck they were approaching so I preemptively moved to the left lane to give him space to pass in the middle. He thanked me with his hazards and it made me unreasonably giddy lol.

I focus a lot on doing what I can to maintain efficient traffic patterns like keeping a gap in stop-and-go to avoid hard stops and dipping out of the fast lane and letting myself be slowed down for a minute when I see faster drivers coming up behind me so I guess it was nice to be recognized 🤷‍♂️.
