    If you wanted to control what lane others drive in, you should have become a cop...

    but your pathetic behavior is always someone else's fault.

    I have passed thousands of lousy drivers... some in the left lane... but have never put their lives at risk.

    Maybe I'm just a better driver than you...

    You know, out of everything I said, I find it funny that the biggest take away you ladies got was the "scrape dirt off your bumper part". Not the fact that left lane camping is A) A hazard B) Extremely inconsiderate C) Impeding a lane of travel AND ILLEGAL (in certain states, mine being one of them).
    You fem bots sound like a nagging wife that you get into an argument with, one that you a winning and they come back at you for ONE little thing out of the whole argument that really has nothing to do with said argument, but just insist on keeping it going.
    To be honest, I don't give a fuck if you think you are a better driver than me, approve of what I said, or think you know me. How about you take your dress off and put a pair of pants back on and stay out of the left lane and most importantly .....which was the overall POINT of the argument. Get over your self riotousness

    "Bear" huh?
    What kind? I'm thinking "Panda"......stupid as hell, utterly useless, and can't survive on their own in the wild without major help.

    Those blocking the left lane or impeding traffic also merge at the last minute

    I obviously touched a nerve...

    You keep calling me and others 'Karens', but everyone here knows that you started this whine-fest.

    You whined about someone making you suffer through a minor inconvenience.

    Then you overreacted by almost causing an accident. (You bragged about it).

    Then, when confronted about it here, you continued whining "It's not my fault, someone else made me do it"...

    You are the definition of a 'Karen'... and you are too wrapped up in yourself to see it...

    -Bear (whatever kind you wish)

    Look man you didn't strike a nerve with me it's actually the opposite. I have fielded more bullshit about how I said something than what was actually meant, hence why you guys sound like a bunch of bitches taking a snippet of an argument and focusing on that. This whole thread moved on, YOU had to come back in with your snipey comment and keep it going :deadhorse:. I never said I "almost" caused an accident. I voiced a complaint against "left lane campers" nothing more, I may have used ADJECTIVES and EXAMPLES of how I feel about it, thats how words are formulated into a sentence. Move on, it's over.
    Jesus, OK I get it you guys can't let it go and want to force your prowess of enlightenment on me. Do me a favor and block me so I don't offend or trigger you anymore. You got to be a blast to hang out with at a party, holy fucking shit Sally (see what I did there).

    Around here they do the exact opposite, moving into the merge lane a mile before they have to -- and then playing lane cop with folks who still use the other lane because they know what the term "zipper merge" means. It's ridiculous. It gets so bad sometimes that the state puts up signs -- "USE BOTH LANES".

    Merging like the teeth on a zipper works the best. Use both lanes right to the end, and merge one car from each lane at a time. Simple!




    I mis-read the first time.

    Anyone that knows what a 'zipper merge' is understands that, when a lane is closed, all lanes should be used up to the closure... so, yes, if one lane is empty for a half mile, I'll use it. The state of Georgia recommends that drivers do that.

    MD and Utah was the worst Ive driven in for construction merging. Numbnuts see signs and ignore it til the cones are on their front bumper. Then the are flipping you off because you wont let them in last minute

    People in my area just assume they have the right of way when they merge from an on ramp and don't even bother to check if anyone is in the lane they're merging into.

    Highways in my area are like this, so you just go to the lane that moves 10% faster than the neighboring lanes and change as needed :bananadead:
