Safety termination, no accidents or damages no one was hurt

Well you have drivers that who are kind of weird. If they know they have to merge right or left, and you try to slow down or speed up (depending on where that car is), it’s like they get scary and don’t know what to do. Or those drivers who want to race to the end of the merging lane

 

The company safety department discussed with me that if someone cuts in front of you, come up of of cruise control and start slowing down. After that meeting I’ve done just that, had no complaints. The instance that got me fired, was me in the far right lane and a 4 door car coming in from the entrance ramp/merging lane (this lane had plenty of space for them to accelerate or get behind me). I’m slowing down like you should but that car chose to stay next to me instead of accelerating or atleast slowing down to get behind me. That was recorded because I didn’t “slow down enough” or slam on the brakes.

Thanks for the advice. I don’t lack defensive driving skills but I definitely understand now. It’s a pain.
