:rockwoot:

I'm quick to hit the washer fluid when tailgaters strike.

WOW. That's awesome. Hell, even filling it with water would be enough to deter tailgating... perhaps saltwater or something that would really ugly up a shiney car but not fuck it up.

Washer fluid doesn't really bother us. We prefer if you just get right so everyone can go about their day. :lol:

Speaking of getting over....

Left lane closes on a 4 lane hiway in 2 miles. So people stack up in the right lane. Left lane still moving sporadically with cars doing 45-60 while right lane creeps at 20. Left lane mergers are waiting till the last second then whipping into the right lane. Who's the douchebag? The right lane "blockers" for clogging it up and NOT utilizing a zipper merge or the left lane "Cheaters" waiting till the last second to merge?

in NY you stay to the left as long as possible, even knocking over a few cones then force your way in. :lol:

Both

if right laners travel with merging space for the left laners, right laners would be traveling faster than if they were blocking.

if left laners didn't merge at the last possible second and cause a stack up and the merged into the open spots, everyone would win.

This country sucks at merging

I didn't realize how fucked up OUR system was till I went to the UK and saw everything working (literally) like clockwork there.

EVERYONE zipper-merges and everyone left one car space in front of them. There WAS no blocking nor waiting till the last second. But then again...there's no "entitlement" feeling over there either. Shit just works there

Single lane rural thing. It usually happens when I get trapped behind a herd of Harley's. :wink:

If I was on the motorcycle, it might be effective, but I could pass you like you were standing still, so it still wouldn't be an issue.
:lol:

I have to build mine up to get it to crop dust. All I know, they back off.

Though, I did do it to a pack of bicyclists this past weekend. They were blocking the entire lane, about 10 of them in their group. I pedal myself and don't understand why they feel the need to have social hour on the road. Especially a 50mph rural two lane with turns and hills. Share the road goes both ways.

I have a different definition of crop dusting than you guys.
If I crop dust in traffic...its my passengers who suffer
