I had someone swing out into my lane (which was ending in a few hundred feet) and hit the brakes to block me. I went on the shoulder, passed them, and since my car was a open diff RWD, I hit the gas after and sprayed them with rocks. To say thank you for deciding what I can and cannot do in my lane, and when.  |
I clarified a few posts back. Perfectly fine to use the full length of the ending lane before merging as long as you actually maintain speed and merge safely. It's the people that don't pay attention to the lane ending and then come to almost a complete stop and have to poke their way into the next lane.
