I hate people who don't know how to drive. Morning commute rant.

Why are people so ignorant of basic rules of the road and common sense that goes along with them?

Every morning after dropping my kid off at daycare, I use a cloverleaf interchange on my way to work. At least 2 out of 5 days a week, I come across people who don't know how to use them properly. Here is today's incident...

I was behind a car on the loop and we were making our way toward the lane change. There is a truck coming in the right lane and nothing in the left lane. Problem 1, the truck makes no attempt to move over so traffic can merge, and no, he wasn't using the interchange. I have room so I move over behind the truck but the car is being hesitant (problem 2) to merge. I am now behind the truck and the car is slow rolling. Picture time!



If the truck had just kept speed, the car would have had plenty of room to get behind the truck and in front of me as I'm coming up to speed. Instead, the truck splits lanes behind the car and slams on the brakes to give her (I'm assuming it was a woman driver) space to get over (problem 3). This causes me and I'm assuming the cars behind me to slam on the brakes too.

The truck may have "been trying to be nice" but created a needlessly dangerous situation by not following basic common sense and road rules.

Yes I'm still mad, even after the 20 min it too me to draw the picture and write this post on my phone.

Learn to drive jackasses.
