This gets to me, too... I mean, come on. It's even better when the both of you are waiting at the next light. Some people just feel more "privileged" than others. This is probably why most people in Las Vegas don't use their turn signals. Seriously, drive the streets there for a bit. It's crazy.

Remember, your suppose to yield to drivers if they are chaning lanes to the right. Your suppoe to yield to cars that are already in the left lane.... Just because your signal is on doesn't mean you can change lanes. Especially if your not going to pass anyone!!!!

The reason CA drivers change lanes without looking/signalling is that if you rear-end someone here, you are AUTOMATICALLY AT FAULT, regardless of any other factors (at least as far as I can tell, anyway). Opportunity for new car = shit drivers.

I'll use my signal, but at that point I already know I got a clear shot at changing lanes. Plus, I do it quick enough that the other guy doesn't have time to do anything like speed up. The thing that bothers me is that a lot of people don't seem to realize that to change lanes properly you have to accelerate a little in order to keep with the flow of traffic. It's like they try to change lanes, but fail to speed up a little and they end up going slower than the traffic they are trying to merge into. |

...that is not your signal to slam your foot on the accelerator to cut them off and then lean your sorry ass on your horn when you fail to do so.
This happened to me on the way to work today and the bastard tailgated me for a mile before they saw a chance to change lanes, slam on accelerator, and then get back into the left lane two spaces ahead of me. "Wow, you just burned a buck-fifty in gas with that maneuver to to get 50 feet ahead? You must be proud of yourself." What the tool didn't know is that we were at a point right before the two-lane highway becomes a three lane highway, but that nobody uses that third lane on the right because it's only three blocks long (it's New Jersey, just go with it). So I casually changed over two lanes right (casually because there are no sudden movements with the alleged car), and while the a-hole in question was still stuck in a block of traffic just starting to gear up after the light went green, I casually floated ahead of everyone, making sure to politely wave as I went by, and gently merged back in 20 car lengths ahead of him. If the dick hadn't had such a rage-on about getting in front of me he might have seen the spot and gotten a lot farther ahead. Never pays to rage out. Yeah, I know, go me. It's been a crappy day so I'll take what little victories I can get. :P |
