Wonder what this is going to cost

It's better to yield to the ignorant jerk than to help precipitate a crash by insisting on your right-of-way.

In normal circumstances i would have had no problem letting the guy come over but in this case with the close proximity and speed differential and the traffic behind me most drivers would have made the decision to pass,i would have looked like a fool had i elected to slam on the brakes causing an accident behind me and in the end he chose not to make the lane change.as i said before a no win situation.I've been driving for 43 years and never had an accident i've made this decision to pass or not pass a vehicle in the slower lane with his turn signal on thousands of times,sometimes you pass sometimes you dont,my experience told me this was a passing scenario.

Jambo, I wasn't criticizing you. I was agreeing with the previous poster who was advocating not forcing situations because you're "right."

Man that's the biggest scrape on a small car I've ever seen in my life. In the States they would've suspended his trucker's license for a stunt like that. Could've been worse, happy to see it wasn't

I can only assume he was preparing for the merge into 1 lane at the top of the bridge as there was nothing in front of him but that merge was still 2 miles away.

Right on! Especially if you ride.

Let the jerks have their accidents together, as long as they don't get their car parts on me. That's what I always say. (except with less polite words)
