Spatial awareness seems to be lacking for these drivers who got licenses from cereal boxes

I’m guessing the left lane ends soon. Most of the cars in the right lane realise this and that opportunistic drivers are using the left lane to cut the queue, which in turn slows the overall traffic. Maybe the falcon was taking a stand to deny others from doing this. Or maybe they were just a complete arsehole. Either way you can’t be blocking lanes

Devils advocate checking in. What he *may* be doing, is blocking people from cutting up the inside if it narrows to 1 lane a few cars up. This is super annoying when you’re in the line on the right, knowing the left is unusable a bit further up, but people jump the queue to gain a few spots

anyone familiar with this stretch of road knows that op is the queue jumping dick head.

Is that hotham near the prahan area? That road moves fast even in built traffic, like why bother with this shit?

Had this happen to me this morning on beach road, and there wasn’t even a blocked lane ahead.
The guy blocking then yelled at me and said I shouldn’t be overtaking on the left.
Mate, it’s a 60k road, that’s not how it works.

It would be funny if we had a few more seconds of video and saw OP also turn right.

Amazing creature. Must have missed mummy’s tender, loving care.

Ah, Williams road. In his tiny little mind left lane = queue jumper.
They should really remove street parking from that road anyway, it’s way too congested.

What an idiot, he refuses to let the op over take then performs what looks like to be an illegal right turn. These people need to get their head checked!!

Who cares if it ends further up. That’s what a zipper merge is for. And it helps the traffic not back so for up that it ends up across the lights.
It’s traffic flow. If the road isn’t meant to be used it would indicate so.
“Queue jumping” is just people driving and trying to reduce traffic.
I feel like the red car is someone that would probably also get angry at a motorcycle or a bicycle.
Gotta get over that ego my man. Let traffic flow naturally and let people in.

He’s probably trying to stop queue jumpers,
his reason? He probably doesn’t want to wait 45 mins to turn right, instead he now waits a normal amount of time to turn right, and the people behind him just have to wait instead of cutting the queue.
Yes he’s being a knob about it. But you’d be miffed too if people kept cutting the queue, who also cannot drive, block roads or drive way slower (and by product become more hazardous), but hey I can jump the queue, I’m so smart, sorry I’m still a terrible driver.

What time of day is that? Cuz they just potentially did an illegal right turn?

This is Williams Rd near the witches house. People are always trying to “queue jump” up the left lane. People are constantly doing what the Falcon driver is doing even though people are also turning left before the parked cars, but 90% of people going in the left are getting out of the right lane and speeding up the left lane and jumping the queue. Dickheads all around.
Sieve365 on
If the right lane is stopped due to cars turning right, how is it queue jumping to move into the left lane to go around them? Or am I misunderstanding something? Sometimes cars turning right can be at an intersection for ages if they have no dedicated right turn light, so it makes perfect sense to go around them. Rather than making traffic less efficient, this makes traffic more efficient because it uses the space available. As long as it’s done with due care using indicators and at a reasonable speed, I don’t see an issue. The idiot in the red car in the video didn’t even use his indicators and should have never encroached into the left lane because he was turning right!

I’m so sick of these people who try to tell you how to drive your car. Also *he* is the wanka.

Has he ever considered that people might be turning left

This is the kind of people who do 98 on a 100 on the right lane and don’t move tf out of the way. Policing the roads themselves and getting off on their power trip

You’re certainly gentle
Failure to Indicate whilst doing a Right hand turn. Send him a Ticket in the mail.
