Freeway traffic
I was driving from work to the gym last night, and per usual for commute time here in San Diego, there was traffic on the freeway. Normally I just try to be a respectful driver and because I am only going 2 exits I stay in the right lane, rather than move left to pass a few cars and just cut back in. But the right lane was crawling, so I switched lanes and probably saved myself about 5 minutes, only to realize that traffic was backed up up off the exit I needed to get off. I contemplated putting my right blinker on and forcing my way in like most a-holes do, but I figured since it pisses me off to no end when everyone else does, I sucked it up and just cruised past the exit to prove a point to myself.
It really irritates my when people have blatant disregard for the people around them, especially on the road. Like the people who cut across three lanes on a regular street to hit the left turn lane at a light, which is already full so they can't get into it, but instead they just hang their ass out and block the traffic going straight, when it would be easier for all parties involved if they just proceeded through that light and made a U-turn an entire 100 yards ahead.
So back to my trip to the gym. I passed my exit. Imagine that! It was so difficult that I went to the next exit, got off, got back the freeway coming in the direction I had just come from, and then sailed off the proper exit and proceeded to the gym. What a considerate driver I am, huh?
