Same thing happened to me on 285 today (it happens often)...I hear you man! ** -- HOKIE MAGIC 03/01/2018 6:20PM
Easier and safer to text ** -- DaveVT 03/01/2018 5:23PM
Sadly, lotta reality there ** -- astrohokie 03/01/2018 5:40PM
Thank God I live 3 miles from my work... can't play the Atl commute game... ** -- banishedtothelounge 03/01/2018 5:11PM
No need to wear out your brakes/clutch/tranny mirroring exactly the -- Hokie360 03/01/2018 4:45PM
Use emergency lane to pass and slip in front of them. Problem solved. ** -- D-Day 03/01/2018 3:52PM
People should also fill the merge lane up once it gets that slow & merge at -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 3:21PM
Only works when all the drivers are traffic/transportation engineers.... -- The Bear 03/01/2018 3:49PM
Then I will them pass & not feel the least bit guilty. ** -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 3:54PM
Screw that, keep your arse behind me ** -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 3:23PM
I will if you’re smart enough to use the merge lane instead of backing the -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 3:30PM
I block the merge lane in those instances. You can wait in line like the -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 3:33PM

Not his fault that you're ignorant of merging best practices ** -- 133743Hokie 03/01/2018 6:34PM
Not ignorant at all. Just an asshole with road rage. ** -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 8:32PM
Sounds like a movie sequel. I’ll be fast & you’ll be furious. Why stretch -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 3:49PM
This just creates a worse backup. -- VTSnake 03/01/2018 3:46PM
I assume we're talking about people who jump out in the merge lane to pass -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 4:01PM
Why would you assume that? -- Nova Hokie 95 03/01/2018 4:12PM
Because it happens every day in my world ** -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 4:15PM
Maybe you should be in the merge lane, too. If the lanes are built use’em. -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 4:45PM
We're talking about something different. I'm talking about the merge lanes -- Brown Water 03/01/2018 4:48PM
Are you talking about people jumping into entrance ramp lanes to pass? -- VTSnake 03/02/2018 07:09AM
Yepper. Burns me to no end. ** -- Brown Water 03/02/2018 08:17AM
Well, I’m never trying to be a jerk but that would depend on the speed/flow -- Hoakie82 03/01/2018 5:06PM

Yep -- Beerman 03/01/2018 3:30PM
Yes, if you are not behind that person, if behind him it just allows more -- fordham 03/01/2018 3:04PM
If the car is moving 5mph continuously (same as other lanes), who cares? -- vtbones 03/01/2018 3:16PM
