Who's the [censored]?

One I have never understood:

You are in the right lane and are going to be forced to merge into the left lane. Common sense is to go as far as possible in the right lane before merging.

All the time I see cars merging 15 car lengths before they have to. This makes the left lane longer than it was. I am in the right lane and drive right by that moran to the correct designated merging spot.

Now everyone behind the moran in the left lane has shifted 2 cars back instead of the one car back they should have moved. Plus someone that was behind the moran is now in front of him - me.

So he hurts himself and everyone in the left lane.

Why do people do that? Are they morans?

I am a cutter when there is a legal lane for it and I will let other cutters in when there is a legal lane for it. If they are forming their own lane, f*$k them. I am good at making it clear I will gladly hit them rather than let them cut in. I can be an angry driver, but I am more than fair to those who drive intelligently.

i used to be a cutter all day long. i commuted to work 80 miles each way and would do everything in my power to cut time off my trip.

now that im older i realize how selfish i was being. i am considerate of other drivers and expect the same now. if i see someone trying to cut i will go out of my way to box them out or roll down my window and share a comment w/ them.

definately needs some nuts,

i understand that its frustrating for anyone when you are waiting like you are "supposed" to and someone else takes it upon themselves to better their position in line. now in a perfect world we would have bullhorns on top of our cars and we could communicate that "cutting" just log jams the front, actually causing MORE traffic but not more traffic for the cutter and that is my point...

since it is not a perfect world and you will always have people rushing to the front or people in HOV lanes cause there empty etc. then there really is only one way to counter that...stop your [censored] bitching and cut in front of them. its what i do, and i am good at it. i am at the point where i could really give a [censored] about you b/c it doesn't matter, i live in a city (if you count the metroplex) of 5 million people so wherever i go there is going to be traffic so its always going to be a dogfight to the front, might as well buckle up and fight back instead of acting like a bitch about it. seriously this post sounded like my mother.

strategic cutter,
