...your a bit of a jerk. I needed to change lanes, the space in front of you was at least two car lengths. As I try to make into a habit, I put on my blinker, and waited a bit so you can realize my intentions. For you that meant gunning the gas to close that gap....seriously?

And I'm pretty sure you gave me a look as you did it. Yes, I saw you glancing at me. It's another habit I developed to see how well people are paying attention to the road.

My habit is to just go. I used to bitch about people who don't use their blinker, but now I don't. Putting on my blinker means that I'm about to be intentionally blocked out by someone who was trundling along at 5 under until I hit the lever.

my car has the 3 blink blinkers for a reason.first is an announcement, second is the answer to the persons"WTF is this douche doing?", third and final blink is a GFY if you missed the other 2.

I give them a heads up. I know it's not a guarantee, more of a suggestion, but to speed up....

I had an asshole guy in a Suzuki SX4 attempt to do the same thing to me this morning... Only I had my foot firmly planted on the gas and I changed lanes more quickly with less warning because I suspected he might do something like that.

So he ended up tailgating me for a bit before backing off.

When we past the semi (why I had to change lanes), I took extreme pleasure flying by her and heading to the front of the line. My car is bright blue, you can't miss it.

(sigh) No... It doesn't make it right, but just have comfort knowing it's not personal. These people would be an asshole to anyone that dare get in front of them.

I had a similar experience the other day. I was going up the ramp from one highway to another, where there's really no merge lane to speak of, so I always make sure that I'm up to speed at by the top of the ramp. There was a car on the lane that I was going to merge into, but it was a couple car lengths behind me as the ramp was approaching the highway, no problem, I'm up to speed, nice clean merge. Until suddenly the car wasn't behind me but right next to me, so I had to swerve onto the shoulder. You get one guess what the car make was...

you haven't seen the footage from the other day on ninemsn.com.au about the drifter going over the westgate bridge in peak hour traffic.

Nope I have not. Besides, it's not the cars that are bad, it's the drivers.....who just happen to be driving Toyotas, :).
