That is NOT what I said. You twisted my words to create a straw-man argument, so it could be perceived how you want.
If you're turning onto 4, then sure, by all means, stay in the right lane.
Nope. I simply expect that people merge over considerately, and in a timely fashion, instead of cramming themselves in during the last 100 ft of road.
YOU KNOW why they do it. Stop pretending you don't.
Another extreme straw-man argument.
If the small percentage of A-holes would merge over (like everyone else does) before the light, there would be no more "traffic backed up for miles" than there already is.
MOST people do this.
Yes. You're absolutely right, but you're also playing the fool. As long as the speed racers stop cramming their vehicles as many cars ahead as physically possible in the last 100 feet of road, everyone would be happier, AND SAFER, AND allow people turning in off 4 to actually get in for a change.
Go ahead. As long as you merge before going through the light like a normal human being, I'll leave you alone, but you run into me, you won't be merging over after the light until I am past you.
BINGO. We have a winner. Thank you.
You can be well within the law, and still endanger people's lives for getting home 5 minutes sooner, which I expect you do.
You can still be well within the law and screw people over and be inconsiderate and inappropriate.
You know that, but you continue with the staw-man argument.
Sorry bout that. I'm actually an extremely selfless person who has spent his entire life helping other people for nothing in return, taking care of his family, and his animals, who are his babies.
I'm just fed up with the jerks on the road when they endanger my life, and the lives of my family members.
I'm just not afraid to give my unadulterated, unabashed, and uncensored opinion sometimes.
I'm also not afraid to stand up for what I believe in - ever.
Oh would you just shut up? I am starting to see that you're here just to argue with anyone who will respond to you.
You know damn well what he meant by that, but you argued anyway, just for the sheer pleasure of being a troll.
Apparently you don't. Actually, you should take a look at the annotated code of maryland. you can find it online.
Maybe do that before posting - here:
Annotated Code of Maryland.
And here: Maryland Traffic Safety Laws
I love it when people like you say "brrruglbrrr, I don't need to
read stuff to know that I'm right! brrrrrumgumllll....."
Following another vehicle too closely can get you two points off your license.
§ 21-310. Following too closely
(a) General rule. -- The driver of a motor vehicle may not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed of the other vehicle and of the traffic on and the condition of the highway.
Wasn't that easy? At least I'm honest...
Hmm. NOTHING in there about lane changes or merging. Uh, oh.
It is becoming apparent that the people who are arguing in this thread are the same douchbags who like to use that lane to pass 25 cars at the last minute.
You also know damn well that I never requested anyone get over "oh my goodness two whole miles" before the lane ends.
Straw-man argument - to the max. Why? Because you don't have any real ground to stand on.
Dang man... Be cool, bro. Be cool. Don't argue just to argue.
