I help truckers block morons (type A) who use the closed lane to run down the hiway and hog in at the last second.
Especially in a situation where the lane closure has been there for weeks/months and everyone knows about them.
Now if its on the interstate then we get new folks that get caught in the closed lane so sure I let them in.
I've been the new guy on the road and just following traffic and realize all of a sudden I'm following the moron that is running down the closed lane to hog in. Very embarrassing moments till I can sheepishly try and get in line in the open lane(s).
It takes a wise man to seperate the "morons" from the sane folks at 70 miles an hour although every traffic expert in the world would name the truckers blocking lanes as the "morons".
Interesting theory........sure glad the experts aren't out here in the lane closure area.
However my comment had nothing to do with 70 mph lane blocking/closures but rather 1-2 mile long stop and go traffic situations where morons use the closed lane and even the shoulder of the road and sometimes the grass and hog in on other drivers who were courteous enough to get in line like the traffic signs say.
