I don't think that works when we're all stopped and the distance between me and
the vehicle in front of me was less than 6 feet. She pulled up into the right
side lane against a vehicle that was parallel to the one in front of me. In the
situation this morning, I HAD to wait for her to let me in--there's no space for
me to gain speed to accelerate in front of her. If she didn't see me, I'm still
at fault, because I'm intruding on her lane.
The point is, if she was paying attention she'd either signal me in, or slow
down. Alas, this is impossible to do with a cell phone and a coffee in your
hands.

Not a problem if you're at or above the speed of other people in that lane.

Overrated.
