I hate these bastards so much

Leni-Heni · 1 year

I always check the license plate first. If it's a stranger who obviously doesn't know the area, I let him in. If it's a local, fuck you!

Edit: As mentioned in other comments, I live in Germany. Here, it's easy to see if somebody is a local or not: The car license plate always starts with a letter which shows where your're from (e.g. M for Munich).

Nah, these guys are mostly just unfamiliar. These are the assholes. Forgive the badly placed indicator to the word "actually".

kodt · 1 year

I seem to remember a redditor who was studied traffic pointing out that making use of all available lanes is better than merging early. Doing so actually will get more cars through in the same amount of time.

This situation is a little different since there is probably a traffic light and this driver could possibly be blocking the left lane or prevent someone from making the light. But if this was a merge on a highway, then it is best to always drive all the way up to the merge point and not merge early.

Some people seem to think if they merge in early they are no longer required to let anyone in. It doesn't work that way, if you get in early you are still going to need to let people merge.

I've done this by accident before. The problem is that as soon as you're close to where the line starts, NO ONE will let you in. This results in you creeping down the line out of necessity, but at that point, fuck everyone.

JerkJenkins · 1 year

I check the license plate to see if they're from the area or not. If they're not; free pass and I let them go.

If they are a local, though, I stay practically touching the bumper of the car in front of me. No way they're getting through. I even sometimes slow down to prevent them from slipping into line behind my car, speeding up once more once they try to pass me again.

Yes, I have been flipped off and rageyelled at more times than I can count.

Deenus · 1 year

About a month ago I was in the similar situation and didn't let someone in, though not exactly on purpose, and she rammed me. She said since she had her blinker on I was obligated to let her in and thus it was my fault. I just smiled and said ok without arguing because I wanted her to say the exact same thing to the police. I ended up getting $1000 from her insurance company and I'm probably just going to keep the money since my car doesn't look that bad.

I have been in the right lane in this example before. It's not that hard to go straight and take the next street or exit. The amount of time it will add to your commuting time is not that much more.

longerbeach · 1 year

I think the most annoying situation I've seen is when people use the bus lane to get ahead, even when there is a bus already in it.

Also bus's that enter traffic from a stop when you are beside them as if i'm somehow going to be able to get past/give way without having to jump lanes or hit the brakes. they may have right of way but common sense should be a factor.

Siktrikshot · 1 year

First post on reddit! Logged in for the first time just to comment about these jerks! Even more than hating these people, I hate people who speed past when you are supposed to merge due to construction. Everyone merges while other people don't and merge 100 feet past and make the traffic slower. Grr!! Grinds my gears!

Talbotus · 1 year

That's why I never let that person in. I've see one guy wait longer than the line was when he pulled up to get in. It made my cry tears of happiness.

racingwithdementia · 1 year

How I feel about this depends on if the right lane is moving or not. If the turn lane is progressing, letting people in is a civic duty. People make mistakes and people are assholes. Share the road with all of them, give them what is reasonable. If we all did this, there would be so much less congestion.

If the turn lane isn't progressing, then you have some bad karma coming for holding up the people behind you.

Only two situations in which this happens:

1) You're being an asshole. Go to the end of the line, lesson learned.

2) You don't know the area and didn't know which lane your in. Your stupidity cost you, back of the line. Lesson learned.

ericmm76 · 1 year

Maybe it's just my location, but I see this waaaaaay more on the DC beltway, 495, when the right lane disappears. The "merge left" signs are clearly marked, and usually most people get over when they can, but there's always some schmuck rocketing ahead in the lane that will be disappearing soon.

Not to mention that round here, we're often in a backup situation, so the right lane, the disappearing lane, is the one empty, because everyone knows that you're not supposed to be in it. But that means that the person shooting ahead will not be able to merge, someone will have to let them in. Fury.

It's probably also what CAUSED the backup.

I never ever let them in. What I don't think most people realise is that these drivers actually cause the majority of the queue for the exit. If you watch where the bottlenecks are in the traffic, I find it's usually a couple of car lengths before the junction, and right where there's a queue of people trying to get in.

I always run into these problems because I just moved and don't know the area. My GPS doesn't like to tell me things like "left turn has to turn left and can't go straight" or "right lane can't turn right".

I always feel bad cutting in line though so I go whichever way I'm already going and just take twice as long to get anywhere.

[deleted] · 1 year

I hate this as well. To piggy back though, i hate fucks that dont let people smoothly merge into a lane from an on ramp. Many times, ive seen multiple people speed up to not allow someone on the highway that is LEGITIMATELY trying to merge on. This causes a huge disruption in traffic. Who cares if they get in front or behind you, they just need to get on so the next person behind them can as well.

DRUG_USER · 1 year

This is quite easily one of my biggest pet peeves. I don't think I've ever been more angry in my car than when I was in bumper to bumper traffic on the highway and TONS of cars were driving down the shoulder and then forcing their way back onto the highway. The combo of curse words out of my mouth would've been a highscore on a video game. And I hate the douchers who let them in almost as much as I hate the cutters themselves.

It's not always intentional. Maybe you want to turn left soon, and the left lane is moving faster, and you simply may not know that much further down the road you'll have to get in the right lane. Then, when you finally notice the obstacle, you may feel like shit, but what can you do? You can't reverse at that point. It's happened to me too. I felt bad, but it was completely unintentional.

DeepCoffee · 1 year

I admit that I'm guilty of this. My defense is that there is almost always a driver (usually more than one!) who's not paying attention and leaves a monster gap for me to enter into without changing the flow of traffic in the least.

I'm probably an asshole too, but I usually purposefully speed up to not let them in. I once had some lady try this on me and she was pretty much playing chicken with me trying to edge over in front of me. There was only like 4-5 feet between me and the car in front of me! She started honking her horn like crazy acting like I was the one who was trying to cause a wreck. I think some people are just retarded.

I always equate it to if we were waiting in line and walking.. it's like some douche waiting in the line for something stupid then jumping the queue to the front of the good line.

The problem is that people actually let them in. I think people need to drive more aggressively. You have to be willing to put your car out there to teach these people that they need to wait their damn turn.

People who do this as a way to get ahead in traffic are assholes. But every single one of us in here has done it ourselves when we mistakenly get in the wrong lane and NEED to get over to the right lane. You know it's true.

Kage2021 · 1 year

I'm going to have to disagree with you. Society should be more angry at the fucking people who make this a viable option. There is no excuse for this. If you genuinely made a mistake you eat it, and turn around somewhere that does not INCREASE traffic load. I mean god forbid you be paying attention while you're behined the wheel of a 4000 pound piece of steel and plastic, haha I mean what can we expect of people? Responsibillity? I make mistakes, just like everyone else. I solve them at my expense, not others. I don't blame the people who do this sometimes. If 800 people do it and get away with it, you'd be stupid to sit in the back while people simply drive around you so that some sissy can let them in instead of forcing them to wait forever and therby learn that this IS NOT the fastest way around traffic. The fact is it is the fastest way, some pussy will eventually let you in. I'm a traffic nazi, mainly I think idiots shouldn't be able to drive.

The thing this picture doesn't show is that there are 100 other douche bags right behind the front most car, all waiting until they are at the front of the line to try to do the same thing.

In Minnesota the State Patrol is trying to get everyone to use both lanes until the very end, then zipper. Apparently it ends up being faster overall. But I still merge early and then deny people who wait until the end to merge.

edgeman4 · 1 year

I broke up a fight, and what I would imagine would eventually become a assault with a deadly weapon charge because of this. The guy trying to pull in was a serious road rager, after they got back in their respective cars (after breaking up their fight) neither of them would budge until eventually the douchebag trying to pull in rammed the other car and kept trying to ram them. Both of these guys with their wives and probably children in the car. You're also a douche if this is enough to get in a fight over and endanger the lives of your family.

guy_who_wed_his_cats · 1 year

If everyone lined up politely behind each other, there would be another lane which is going entirely unused. This would actually impede traffic as less cars could fit into the same space.

Or I might have no clue and just be talking out my ass.

Cathbar · 1 year

I think it's safe to say that the majority (ignoring cell phone use) of traffic problems in America are caused by someone's reluctance to get off at the next exit and turn around, or miss a turn, or in anyway have to backtrack. This makes them cut across 3 lanes to make the exit, and cause a traffic jam in their wake.

TheRaven7 · 1 year

Fuck this. I absolutely despite SURPRISE TURN LANES. Why the fuck does this lane I've been driving in for 5 miles suddenly need to become a turn lane for this one fucking intersection? With no warning until right up at the light where the arrow is on the ground.

alphakilo · 1 year

My favorite type of bastard is the kind that ends up in the middle of the intersection as the light turns red, trapping him there. On second thought, the worst bastard is the guy that takes a right on red while I'm waiting at a green light for the cars in front of me to proceed so as to avoid being the bastard that blocks the intersection. I didn't stop to let you through, asshole. You know who you are.

TheJoePilato · 1 year

There was a construction merge yesterday with this sort of thing happening so the tractor trailer behind me just slid into the middle of the two lanes so nobody could go around him. I gave him a thumbs up, then went back to trying to run over the edge of the road cones.

[deleted] · 1 year

I once was stopped behind one of these on a thru lane on a busy highway for at least 15 seconds. Never have I road raged harder. Thing was the lane we were in also diverged on the exit she was trying to get off of, she'd just have to turn around after a block as that lane would make her turn the opposite direction she wanted to go in.

Are you implying that they aren't aware they're an asshole? You know, there are situations where I've found myself in similar positions and HAD to force my way in. Such as not knowing that the lane ended due to construction or whatever. There's no reason to take it out on the rest of the people are you.

TL;DR Don't be a douchebag. It makes things that much worse

nickbfromct · 1 year

but it is INCREDIBLY efficient, a couple people won't let you in but you WILL get in.

What about on a highway where the farthest left lane is closed and everyone gets in the right lane because the sign says the left lane is closed like a mile down the road? I mean I have to wait in a mile long line, fuck that shit.

theseus1234 · 1 year

Sometimes those people are just not very knowledgeable about the area. It happens to me plenty of times when I'm visiting a place for the first time and I see that I'm in the wrong lane. Of course those who know where they're going and cut the line like that are pure jackasses.

jeeluhh · 1 year

Where I live, It merges from 2 lanes to 1. There are adequate signs and never backed up traffic. Mostly people know this and try to just drive really fast to cut every one else off. No blinkers, just pure 100% asshole. My mom taught me to stay right beside them until they slow down and get behind and/or hit me. Jerks.

SammyLocked · 1 year

It's people like this that caused me to wreck my car. Going the speed down interstate, guy decides he doesn't want to wait in line and slams on brakes so he could cut ahead. Annoying.
