Also, If you were doing the speed limit entering a construction zone......  I wouldn't have let you in. And the reason she tried to block is that she had probably done the prudent thing and gotten into the right lane when it was safe to do so instead of forcibly getting in the right lane at the cones...So at least you know one girl was "put out"..... I don't condone cutting anyone off. But exactly what was it you did? And sure you did. You cut off the people who had gotten into or were already in the right lane waiting to get home before you came along and got in front of them...And how if they were sitting still how did you get in? That is right, one of those "idiots" who had gotten into the right lane before you, had to keep their brakes on while you got in ahead of them.....
Politeness on the road is everyone's responsibility, bragging about how you beat everyone to the cones is not...... |
Very well put, couldn't have said it better. Just about as bad are these jokers passing on the shoulder. Time for a driver bonehead thread?
