Why do people think they can block a free lane of traffic because they need to merge over?

Shits crazy man. You see this all the time. This guy decided to sit and wait to get over into a stopped lane when ours was free flowing

To that guy

Happened to me the other day. When I blew the horn she flipped me off. She had a Catholic Church sticker on the back glass. :rolling eyes:

I see it all the time and never got it. Generally it's that guy who didn't want to wait in a long line, yet wasn't aggressive enough to pull into a hole in the line so he is stuck waiting for someone to let him in.

Buy a dozen cheap hammers from the dollar store. When someone does this throw one of your hammers through their window. It is a dollar well-spent and they know why you did it.

The same reason they think they can get inches off your bumper while blinding you with bright lights at high speed -- they don't give a damn about anyone but themselves.

This is what confuses me about self-driving cars. How will they break ties when 2 cars want to move into an open space among multiple lanes? or how will they make ANY decisions that may optimize overall traffic flow but be suboptimal for the car by itself?

On two separate occasions I have passed a car that stopped and put their car in reverse because they missed their exit, on the interstate, here in Houston.

But I agree, the whole block a lane to get into the turning lane pisses me off too

Did this happen in the right lane of Siegen right at Airline? I bet this happened in the right lane of Siegen right at Airline.

For me its the Clearview exit in Metairie where they are in the far right lane and at the last minute cross over the white line to take the south exit. WTF, get in the correct lane before the white line.

So.

I have to ask.



How many times have you intentionally passed up on your exit simply because traffic was flowing to the next one.

Now if you are asking why did they wait till the last second, thats another issue.
