>actually giving a decent cushion between me and the car in

Too much of a gap, leave 3/4ths of a carlength and if someone indicates to merge just move up so you can just see the leading car's rear wheels.

>implying they ever indicate

its literally impossible to keep a safe follow distance without cunts slipping in between, especially in a lineup for an exit that they don't want to wait in. i fucking hate it.

If you're giving less than a car length's space there's no way any human being is able to react fast enough to stop if they slam on their brakes for whatever reason.

Please let all tractor trailer drivers know this.

Had a canuck on my ass on the way home today, less than half a car most of the time, hauling a flatbed apparently at the height limit full of wood, at 55 MPH. Fun times.

Cool rig otherwise though. Straight stacks, not overly loud, tasteful lights, and you could see the bumper tilt sideways a few inches as he hit each gear coming off a stop light.

Difficult to do when you're #7 in a line of 30.

if they're pulling up from the other lane quickly, 99% of the time they're going to switch lanes in front of you or wherever the clear route is.

you gotta learn how to predict everyone else's behaviour

It's usually those cocksuckers causing 99% of the traffic by changing lanes every 30 seconds. The only thing worse might be the douchebag with the obama bumper sticker doing 55 in the left lane. Also, some tell the assholes in the right lane who floor it right before I'm gonna merge to die in a fire.
