Picture this scenario:
You are driving on a split road, two lanes in either direction. This road serves as a "strip" of sorts, boasting restaurants, shopping malls, hotels, that sort of fare (helps that this particular strip is close to I-90). As such, this road can be quite busy.
You are the driver in a blue Lexus SUV. You are riding in the left lane. You have already displayed several times to everyone else around you that if you turn the wheel, the car can move, and have been unable to truly commit to a lane. The car in front of you, a good 3 car lengths away, has come to a stop and is waiting to turn left into a parking lot for a pizza joint. Do you:
a) Come to a stop and wait for the car in front of you to turn,
b) Come to a stop, wait for traffic on your right to clear so that you may change lanes, using your indicator, and go around the waiting car,
c) do neither but instead blindly barrel into the right lane without looking, sans signal, causing the car that was there to start honking at you because you are about to turn them into a sidecar,
d) C + ignore the honking, forcing the other car up onto the curb to get out of your way and continue down the road straddling both lanes, until you realize that you are in the left lane again and need to turn right, once again cutting off traffic sans signal.
If you chose D....I'm sending you my laundry bill.
