Lost my cool a little on the drive home. moderately heavy traffic that still moved at 65ish... good pockets of right lane unused after a while and people didnt want to move over. ok so i drop gears and scoot around them, no biggie. most of the time people get the message and move over after i pass on right.
After a while i get into a seam of left lane traffic in left lane going about 70 to the rights 65... im still looking for my "in" to move around the people who don't understand moving over. I go to pass this large soccer mom van, who signals into my lane as i am approaching. Now, the person really had no reason to try to pass the car in front of it, considering that they later resumed going 65....
anyhow, the person clearly didn't see me in their blindspot because they didn't bother looking. i slam on brakes and actually used my horn. I then flip them off. and once i see them looking in rear view, i start clapping, to myself saying "oh great fucking job there!". next time they have a chance the move aside, and as i pass i point to my eyes and speed off (90+), as if to say "use your fucking eyes".
Morals of the story 1. blind spots: they exist and you need to actually look there. 2. signalling before you go does not give you right of way. only a gap in traffic will guarantee you a spot there.
TLDR; had a rough work weekend and wanted to get home. lost my cool on some fat lady in a van because she sucks at driving in traffic.
