Every day I drive down Beaudesert Road for most of its length, and every day I see people who constantly chop and change lanes the entire way.
From the arse end of Logan to the pubic region of Brisbane they have changed lanes dozens of times, and yet I - the superior zero lane changer - am within a few car positions of them.
I think the problem is they/you do not see themselves/yourself as part of the traffic. Traffic is everyone else. They/you are stuck IN THE TRAFFIC. If only they can change lanes enough times they will get ahead of the traffic and win the race. If you/they instead saw themselves as part of the traffic and worked together as a team (leave following gaps, don’t block people who actually need to change lanes, dont block intersections when lights go red etc) then everyone could enjoy less congestion and angst on the road.
Anyway. Bit of a dunny thought.
Car brain conditions a certain kind of mindset in people.
Related too, the people who think that “passing lane” means a Mass Effect FTL corridor where rules don’t apply. Yes, there’s a person passing ahead. Just because they’re going the (verified) speed limit, doesn’t mean you get to tailgate and try to bully them. They’re still passing, after all.
