Did you know that “yield” means “speed up and cut people off, force them into the left hand lane, then don’t let back into the lane they were in so they could make the exit”.

Yup. Learned that from a driver this morning who decided hitting the gas was better than hitting the break at the highway entrance ramp.

I'm just thankful no one was in the left hand lane.

Oh yes. Truckers know this better than anyone. It works the other way too - stay in the right hand lane so people can't move from the on-ramp onto the highway, run out of lane and end up driving on the shoulder.

Glad you weren't hurt, sweetie!
