Do you slow down, when you are being overtaken?

[[ChExp] Yuz [UA] 3]

This is a good practice, I more often to give way.
Do not be like fools who provoke accident.
Sometimes, instead of an accident and subsequent abuse, it is better to get good emotions in the form of gratitude, even from the offender.

[Energetic Panda 22]

Of course I  do, and I blink my lights to indicate that the truck. can. enter. to. the. lane. again...

[XL 25T 3]

Single lane, I do, multi lane do not.

[Cloofter 82]

Sorry, I'm late to reply but yeah I slow down also I tend to flash with high beams at night time to alert the truck who has overtaken that he can fit in the gap in front and his trailer is clear.

[Millennium1001 13]

I guess it depends on the situation.
I guess what you are talking about is when someone tries to overtake you on a 2 lane road and someone is coming from the diffrent direction. 
In this case i usually try to go a bit to the right and slow a bit down

After watching the video I can just say I never drive like this. I always follow the european traffic rules. So overtaking is no problem for most people. And in general it works like this: The one that wants to overtake must find the moment when its safe enough, then pass and merge without cutting the other one off or causing a crash.

So my answer to the question: No I normally don't slow down because either their faster and they overtake anyway or they aren't faster then they can drive behind me and they will arrive at the same time.

I don't often slow down. It's his/her choice they decided to ovetake me, why should I need to slow down and lose momentum for example. However, I don't accelerate either, as well it's not allowed to do so if other driver is making an overtake maneuver.
Of course, if I see that there's an oncoming driver, then I slow down and often even go to the right if I see he's going to either crash into this driver or me.

If he does hit me, well I'm allowed to report him, he decided to overtake me here and created an accident.

[Cloofter 82]

Yeah well, many people follow EU Road regulations yet I follow UK road regulations considering I'm from Scotland. https://www.gov.uk/browse/driving/highway-code-road-safety

I don't drive all that fast anyhow, between 50mph-60mph. If someone is in a hurry with a load I will slow down more, move over a little and let them pass. I would rather do all that than have someone following to close and not be able to stop if I do. That way no accidents and everyone is happy.

I usually drive between 80-90km/h. On highways I just have the cruise control on and do not slow down. On 2 lane roads it depends, but only when needed for safety reasons. It's their choice to overtake after all.

[[VIVA CC] Bolts 1]

I slow down if I see someone coming from the opposite direction to avoid accidents.

[Arthur Dion 1]

Yes, most of the time I slow down to the one overtake me. 

[JamesS014_TMP 14]

I slow down so they can get pass and not cause an issue or collision with oncoming vehicles. If it is that much of a risk, i normally just get as close as i can to the right hand side of the road with my right indicator on, Horn at them, so they know they can go! Just makes everyone journey a little bit safer!

[General18 14]

If I'm driving 110 Km/h. Then no.
If I'm driving 90 (World of Trucks contracts). Then Yes

Only servers do not let you go beyond their speed limit and if it happens if they reduce your speed

[Baby on Board 11]

I'll slow down.I just want to enjoy the game without any problems.

It's also a form of courtesy in real driving life.

[MadCowTransport 25]

Honestly with the new speed limit, I never am being overtaken. But before, yes if I knew being overtaken was inevitable then I would smoothly slow down and pull as far right (or left, if in England) as I could... even using the shoulder, when safe. 

[ALLIANCE - FelypeGT 60]

lt depends on the simuation but we both have to be aware so much that we are being overtaken as who is going over we all have to be aware of what we do

[Ashlyn 844]

Well, I personally don't slow down but if u want to be nice I sometimes slow down. 

[UgurS 96]

If I am driving a truck that has low HP, I drive between 90-100 km/h so I let them to overtake me. However; if I am driving a powerful truck, I drive between 100 - 110 km/h so I usually don’t let them to overtake. 

[KneyS 5]

Yes, always making it easy for the next one to pass.

[Explore Transport 95]

Normally if it's busy I keep to +/- 5km/h around the speed limit, single lane roads I am doing 60km/h so its easy to pass me
