Need your advice about cars merging

thats one of my pet peeves - I'll move over for big trucks or even a 4 wheeler pulling a trailer if I can.
The rest of em can either figure it out or end up on the shoulder. F em -

Then we have Pennsylvania, the land of subjects whom their own "leaders" have decided are too moronic to merge onto the interstate and instead have installed stop signs.

 

I move over in most situations. If it puts the guy out behind me trying to pass, regardless If its a big truck or 4wheeler, then in most situations i let the merging vehicle figure it out.

 

My personal rule is, if the person trying to enter the interstate is actually making a concerted effort, is at least a few car lengths ahead of me on the ramp, I will then ease up a bit and give them room to continue on their way. If no effort is obvious, tough nuggets, I refuse to get into a braking contest with some idiot that thinks they have to be on the interstate before accelerating. This is of course, if there is traffic approaching from behind...if there is nobody close, I move over....and I dare someone to flash a gun, I have a dashcam, and 911 can be done via voice dialing along with their license plate...point it at me, and I will do my best impression of Dale Earnhardt at Bristol against Rusty Wallace...to the wall you will go gun slinger.

 

Typically when I drove my service truck (I think it's a class 6 truck) I'd watch traffic coming down the ramp. If we're speed matched, I'd just let up on the pedal and let them over. If I was already faster than them, I'd just keep rolling along. Key is to always be aware of what's happening around you and try to anticipate what's happening. Be proactive, not reactive.

 

Being aware of the situation makes the difference, great point.

 

Being a good driver is not about getting out of a situation, its avoiding the situation before it ever happens.
