    Nothing technically wrong with going to the front(other than it makes you look like a dickweed). That's actually the way the the zipper merge is supposed to work. But people drive like crap. They stack up in one lane with several people flying up the other lane to the front.

    If half the people in the stacked up lane moved into the other lane and if people merged in controlled manner, things would go faster.

    What about drivers who get pissed as hell and follow you for a couple of miles tailgating you as close as possible to try and make you get in an accident?

    Of course then they have to pull up next to you with their window down screaming like a maniac.

    Always fun.

    "For years I didn't dine and dash, but I tried once and it's only like $12 -- and it only costs these people like four bucks to make me and omelet with coffee, geez!"

    We all have ****in' babies, dude. That's why we plan ahead and get over. Don't justify being a total *******.

    And anyone that lets these assholes in is a complete and total wuss.

    I've driven all around the country and I am pretty sure Houston has the worst drivers. The roads are ****ed up as well and traffic is amongst the worst in the entire country.

    Not using a signal doesn't annoy me as much as the people who drive through parking lots, putting everyone in danger just to save themselves half a second of time. ****ing morons.

    God I hate Houston so much.

    Are you sure you've driven all around the country?

    Because Houston has some of the better roads and drivers are MUCH worse elsewhere.

    That is so freakin' true. Sad, but true, and if you "express" your displeasure at the ******* who nearly caused you to have an accident because he/she didn't signal and simply decided to change lanes, not even looking to see who's there, that ******* is apt to take a pistol out of his/her glovebox and take a shot at you.

    A lot of pick-up truck drivers do this

    I came to the conclusion pickup truck drivers are the champs at being the worst/douchiest of anyone on the road. Minivans are in 2nd place because of actually having dangerous clueless drivers.

    I use them in parking lots. You'd be surprised just how effective they can be.
