I began studying them in other lanes behind other vehicles to see if I was paranoid or just had bad luck. It indeed seems that some people react to the size advantage by (I hope usually unconsciously) crowding the smaller vehicles around them. A bit of unconscious bullying or just selfish awareness that it isn't likely to be them the one who gets hurt.

Try driving a Miata. This happens every single time and almost always a pinhead in a pickup with a confederate flag on it somewhere. Driving the Z around, I notice people creeping up and keeping pace in my blind spot.
