By the time my singal is on and I am moving over I have already assessed the speed of the driver in the other land and have made sure they are paying attention (not switching a cd etc.)

well, thing was, there was plenty of room for me to get over...she just decided to speed up a bit so I couldn't get over. That was the mean part. But I get you, put on your blinker when you're getting over...but then it's kind of an after thought. But, to each their own. Again, it's not just an SA thing. It's an everyone thing.

You have a wife and kids that depend on you? Not worth it. Don't sweat the small stuff.
agreed, If I had a nickel for every idiot with his POS car attempted to get in a wreck with me, I'd be a millionare, I'll tell you wat whener I see those idiots out there trying to get me involved in their fraud, I would make shure, they wont make it out of the wreck. I hate people trying to go for the easy buck

and belive me, I have come close to doing, it they always back down at the last second. I guess eating 40tons of metal is not what they have in mind.

What highway are you driving on?
I feel like I won the lottery when I finally pass a “left-lane turd” and I can drive on the left lane at the speed limit.

I think satx56 and Dopo are missing the point of the left lane.

Hello,

Lack of blinkers is the one thing that drives me nuts. Mind readers indeed. Me, me, me. I am the most important thing in the universe.

I have to say though that the drivers in Thailand and Dubai make our worst drivers seem sane by comparison.

Only 1 question,
were you doing the speed limit on the left lane while people were trying to pass you?
