Changing from a slow lane to a faster lane
You’re driving in the second from the right lane. Your lane is proceding nicely, meaning, you are going faster than the right lane. A car moves from the right lane to your lane, and you have to let off the accelerator…just a bit. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself putting a new dimple in the rear of their car!
All is nice except for one thing, this driver doesn’t accelerate to the lane’s current speed. Even if they do accelerate, they don’t get up to the speed the rest of the drivers in that lane are driving…those drivers are leaving you and this person behind!
It’s not really the fact that you are left behind. It’s reall that you were driving in your zone…you were comfortable at that speed or around that speed, but the ‘new guy/girl’ is messing things up. Even two miles per hour slower is uncomfortable.
I’m not one to really do anything damaging, but I do think of it…DON’T YOU?
If you move into another lane with vehicles (cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, etc.), adjust to their speed, don’t mess it up for the others.
If you have the patience, wait for the faster traffic to get by, and then make your move. Drive aware!
