It's bad enough being cut off on the road, but when a driver pulls directly in front of you when the road behind you is wide open - not a car in sight - it makes me want to turn on my fake police turret and pull them over for a dose of what for. Or better yet, hit the button on my pop-up ASSHOLE sign spelled backwards, so the offending driver can read it loud and clear in their rearview.
But seriously, why do people do that? What is that triggers the decision in their pea-sized brains that tells them it is better to slam on the accelerator and speed into moving traffic at the first sliver of opening, rather than wait an extra 2 seconds and join the line safely once oncoming traffic has passed? It's another story if there is a lot of traffic and you need to merge in. But if there are just a handful of cars on the road, there's simply no reason to be so aggressive and spike everyone's blood pressure. Especially since I'm not going to slow down just because you decided to jump in front of me. I'm going to keep up my pace, and if that means you have to ride with my nose up your ass, that's your problem. Wouldn't you rather not?
