    You knew his lane was coming to an end and you did not let him in?:biggrin_25513:

    If it was not obvious that he was going to fall in behind you, you should have let him in.

    That's just safety and professional courtesy going together. IMHO.

    sounds as though he still needs alot of improvement as far as driving and courtesy but as with all the new ones theyll learn eventually if they hang on or get terminated there is no room out here for a unsafe driver that doesent think first.

    I was gonna ask the same thing. You should be driving defensivly all the time, don't get comfortable or bad things will happen. Be safe brother!!
