"I hope you don't think your going to cut me off."

"Why would I cut you off? I'm going straight. You're turning left : points in the direction he's going:"

"What makes you think you can just "butt" in line?"

"Are we in a cafeteria line or something? Do you ask every person that passes you why they are cutting in your imaginary line?"

He starts to cuss me but the light turns green so I left him there stinking up traffic.

MOPED FTW.

It makes sense because currently if you're on a bicycle you'd have to sit in traffic (per current law). Filtering good, lane splitting meh.

But like that video in LYL showed, it can happen when everyone is stopped as well. People are just going to have learn to get used to it.

I really wish this was around when riding 6 hours of 95 a day over the summers.
