Almost always someone sees that as an opportunity to be taken advantage of so they have to fill in that opening. What does it gain them? So they're one car ahead? Today that happened as I was going into Newark on Rt. 896. So I immediately switch over to the left lane this jerk just left. Guess what? I ended up way ahead of him as he was stuck in traffic WAY BACK because the lane he was in had construction which he failed to see because he was so anxious to take advantage of that gap. <br /><br />Last week while going into Rehoboth early in the morning I always drive in the left lane because I'm going to make a left hand turn into Rehoboth on 1A. I don't want to be trapped in the right lane. So here's a car behind me, right on my tail real close. So she rides my bumper for a bit then roars past me on the right. Guess what? As I go over the bridge into Lewes there is the little Missy who was riding my bumper. A cop had pulled her over for speeding. Ah yes, I rode into Rehoboth a happy man.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6671297494867817437.post-21007194783447356032010-08-29T20:12:19.653-04:002010-08-29T20:12:19.653-04:00I will not drive on I-95 if I can help it. Today ...I will not drive on I-95 if I can help it. Today Bill and I went Pennsylvania. We went up Rt. 896. Years ago I used to go by way of I-95 and Rt. 202. Like you, while on I-95 my heart was in my mouth all the way because if I wasn't going at the minimum of 75 miles an hour (which I'm not comfortable driving that fast), vehicles are passing me on the right and left. WHIZ! WHIZ! <br /><br />And it seems I always have to get over to the far left lane for all of my exits or else, like you, I'm headed to Philadelphia and New York. <br /><br />I HATE I-95. I-95 scare the crap out of me.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.com
