Subject: RE: BS: Why'd Dey Do Dat??
Driving, again. S/he is in the lane next to me, holding speed. I want to pass, or go behind so I can move towards my exit. As I either speed up or slow down, s/he matches my speed so I can't. I either nail the gas or brake lightly to accomplish my lane change. As soon as I do, so does s/he. I look at his/her face and I can see no indication of mental activity. Not even the "cell phone excuse." Whuuuh?
'Nother. I am maintaining decent speed with the traffic flow, just above the limit, but not insane and s/he noticeably speeds up to pull in front of me. No exit nearby, and no other traffic impediments--slow drivers, potholes, debris on the road--of any sort. As soon as s/he completes the move, they slow down to well below the speed of the flow. Whuuh?
