At least she remembered to use her turnsignal...

Your 2 miles away from merging and people like you cause accidents by jumping over right away. You are meant to use all of the lanes and merge as you approach the closed lane. Not merging effectively causes a hell of a lot more problems.

I think he's referring to the jackasses that come screaming up the closed lane at 40 mph faster than traffic in the other lanes, then come to a complete stop just before they hit the trailer with the big flashing arrow, turn on their turn signal, and presume that it conveys them with absolute right of way. Then they will come over and put their front bumper 4 inches away from your front fender as they barge into your lane, flipping you off for not letting them in.

Really I cause accidents? hmm good to know guess that is why I consantly see cars doing movie stunts in my rearview mirror.[Bang]

My point was the people that see the open lane where everyone else has clearly merged haul ass past you until they are almost touching the truck with >>> sign
throw on their blinker (if they even do) AFTER they have screached to a stop and expect you to let them in.

Another thing that really brings out my inner Trunk Monkey are the total tards that will pull into a closed lane because there is a gap between the cones or barrels just big enough for their car to squeeze through.
