That's out of order. Like I've always said, if someone indicates before they start moving, I'll always let them in. However, if they just try to push in, then I will prevent them from turning off.

People (not you LaLaLayla) really need to be retaught why you use the indicators.

Re: Road Rage

Quite. Indicating is the key. Drifting into me without indicating pisses me off no end.

But Lalalayla - you *can* slow down even if there are cars behind you.
