It seems like Michiganders add a twist to this with their ultra-offense driving. A car could be going 25 in a 70, but if they see a gap opening in front to which another car might use for turning, they FLOOR it so as to position their car perfectly in the blind spot of the offender. That'll show him.

And if there's a perfectly reasonable gap and you signal before entry just to make them aware? Gap closed. Guaranteed. And they just hang in the blind spot, no matter how you change your speed, just to make sure it's maximally annoying.

gently caress these people, if they close off a gap as I'm merging legally, I'll keep coming over. You wanna rear-end me at speed, rear end in a top hat? Keep on coming, I'm sure the police will love your explanation.

Best is when there's an endless gap in front of them, but what they're blocking is the hole between themselves and the car in front of you in your lane. Plenty of space for you to pass and get beck right (or left in UK), but they MUST WIN THE RACE OF HIGHWAY DRIVING so you shall not pass.

This sort of nonsense is why occasionally I'll say gently caress it and just start doing what a friend calls my "angry DTM driver" thing. Idiocy seems to come in clusters.

Oh hey, this is a typical image of the Belgian highways. The moment a gap appears, it will be automagically filled by a car that as a free bonus cuts you off.

Even if the lane you're in is going slower than the lane they came from, or will be going slower very soon on account of unsynchronized traffic lights.

Sometimes I get the feeling I'm the only one on the road that actually looks ahead and rolls to a stop rather than hitting the brakes at the very last moment(I've actually had this happen near a red traffic light. Of course the guy who pulled in took his sweet time to get going once it hit green again)

Getting picked up from my friends house would have been a whole lot cooler if my dad showed up behind the wheel of something that made that kind of noise.

My friend's parents would not have been amused by the colossal patch of rubber left at their curb however.
