Had myself a moment on Saturday. Was traveling back home on I-77 south (just outside of Canton, Ohio) in the left hand lane passing a couple of cars. Was following some 1980s truck, don't remember the make, but was behind him by about 3 or 4 car lengths, going around 75. In the right hand lane was a woman in a Mitsubishi Montero following behind a line of about 4 cars. I was just coming up beside her when she put on her turn signal, looked right at my face as I was beside her, then proceeded to swerve into the lane I am in with literally about 4 inches of space between her front bumper and my back tire. I panicked for a quick moment, but instinct took back over and I had enough time to realize I was headed for the shoulder on the left, so I regained composure quickly, veered back into my lane more, and cracked the throttle, leaving her behind a bit. She ended up getting in front of the cars she was following, putting her signal back on to go back in the right lane (there was an exit coming up I guess she had wanted to take?) and cut off the driver in the right hand lane, merged in front of them pretty much the same way she did right behind me, with little to no room for error. The lane she got in was an exit only lane, and she went off on the exit but put her left turn signal back on (maybe she didn't want to take that exit after all? who the hell knows) and nearly rear ended an escort on that exit ramp. Are there really people out there that are THIS bad at driving and are still alive? How do you not have any regard for the other people on the road's lives?  Still, scared the bejeezus out of me.
