[QUOTE="FJRBluesman, post: 1144340, member: 5903"] Quick rant. Cagers are idiots! In Cali specifically SoCali, I commute to work each day and enjoy my ride, cause everyday is beautiful and I’m riding. [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/yahoo.gif[/IMG] BAM! My rant: I know I’m also getting old, but every freaking cage on the freeway is drafting like it’s a NASCAR race. I have been observing and counting not even a ¼ second between cars. Many barely leave a small car length in between the car in front of them. I’m usually in the HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle or carpool) lane and when I go to merge out into the regular lanes, it’s a crap shoot to try and brake, accelerate, or take the slot next to you. I also notice once I turn on my blinker the car in the lane I want to get into starts to suddenly accelerate to close the gap. What a coincidence! [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/nono.gif[/IMG] It seems over the last year or two it’s got a lot worse. It’s rather stressful trying to merge when most are still asleep, texting, talking, applying makeup, shaving, etc on the way to work. Do others notice this? Rant over.
