Went to finish up some last-minute Christmas shopping and traffic was...actually pleasant? No way! Just this one little incident on the way back.
Maybe this has happened to other people. You're on an on-ramp, and the person ahead of you is slowly putzing along. All the traffic on the interstate graciously moves over a lane to let on the line of cars that is behind the putzer.
The car behind you, though, is impatient. So they take advantage of the freshly vacated right lane and suddenly cut over and gun it. Now, they're on the interstate, beside you so you can't merge on. They can't move over to let you on, since the next lane over is full, and there's not enough time to actually pass you before the end of the on-ramp. Something's gotta give, and it doesn't seem fair that it should be me.
The car backed off to let me on, but really, you can't wait your turn in line? Yeah, I don't like the slowpoke either, but if I'm stuck behind him then I'm stuck and there's not much I can do until I'm able to get onto the highway and have room to pass him. Gah! It just really annoys me when people do this.
