> [@Joe](#): > > but why? what are you accomplishing? getting on one car ahead of where you would have been? Some piece of shit pickup nearly put a new BMW into a concrete wall ahead of me today getting on the 33, then like 6 people immediately behind stonewalled him and he almost got rear-ended cause he had to stop dead on a curve where you can’t see that far ahead. i never understood what people had to gain by cockblocking in between lanes, especially one person. It comes down to the equity issue and when I have to wait I feel everyone else has to do the same. It happens to me all the time heading home from school during rush hour and I swear I’ve almost been in an accident at least once a week from idiots rushing past everyone, then when the 290 splits to the 290 (heading toward the 33 from Main at the fork) they just tap the brakes and fly into the ongoing traffic. I guess you can say I get some of my jollies that way 😃 --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2-lanes-merging-into-one-what-do-you-do/23253)._
