1. I didn't feel the need to edit it. This wasn't a 20 minute video, it's 4 mins start to finish. If you can't handle simple directions (I left that note about scrolling forward for a reason) then I'm sorry I wasted your time.
2. I ABSOLUTELY saw the traffic slowing and stopping in the right lane. That would be the reason I was down to 38 mph by the time that ###### decided he would come to a dead stop on a 3 lane interstate highway. I always assume that "the other guy" is going to do something stupid. In this case they did.
3. If you can handle watching the video again (yes, I know there's soooo much extra effort involved because I didn't edit it) you'll notice that the idiot in the white car did NOT use a turn signal until AFTER he almost got hit and AFTER he moved again and passed the giant hole left by the truck he let in.

As far as the editing goes, with the upload times we have on most of the crappy Wifi services, it's doing you a favor more than us.
Blow the horn? I do it, the legal reason is to warn somebody of danger. A secondary reason is to get some attention to what is happening. Some drivers do crappy things because they assume nobody sees them. You can also hope a cop is nearby.
The white car does stuff you see every day in any metro area. It wasn't the worst offender. When you see a lane backing up like that before an exit you can always pretty safely bet somebody is going to realize they don't want to be in that lane, or don't want to sit in the backup. The ones that piss me off the most are the ones who do want to exit at the next ramp, but not wait. They jump out of the backed up lane, pass until they get right at the exit, then try to squeeze back in, sometimes camping out on the shoulder, trying to look innocent.
