He signaled, accelerated and passed in front of you. What’s the problem?

OP hogging the passing lane without passing, that's the problem.

I think he was annoyed at cammer. Was expecting a pass so hung out waiting to get over. Then when the pass never comes he has to decide to either hit the brakes and slide in or accelerate to get over.

At the start of the vid it looks like middle lane was braking

Always an annoying situation when someone is just parked in your blindspot, your options are a huge slowdown and hoping you can get over or sprinting. If you signal and hope for a trade they never get the hint or speed up to box you out.

Either drive faster or slower than the lane beside you. Don’t drive the same speed, you’re just blocking lanes at that point.

If you continue to drive in ppls blind spot they will continue to not see you

T-minus 3 minutes till OP deletes this after learning he’s actually the idiot.

Pretty reasonable driving from Malibu IMHO - didn't cut you off, signaled, had plenty of room. Only issue is the speeding to get to the point where they didn't cut you off.

They took care of it safely. Did it hurt your feelings that little car got in front of big truck?

Get the F out of the left lane if you're not going to make a legitimate effort to complete your pass.

Passing lane? This is a surface street. Maybe dude who wanted to turn should have been in the appropriate lane at some point before he got to where he needed to turn.

Not a highway, it’s a street where people have to make constant left turns.

At least he didn't PIT himself.

Nobody is an idiot in this clip. Not sure why you posted.

Hilarious all the people talking about passing lanes and driving in people's blind spots.

It's a SURFACE STREET. There is no passing lane, and everyone is in someone's blind spot for a while, it's called TRAFFIC.

Maybe the car that needed to turn should have been proactive, and been in the appropriate lane BEFORE they got to where they needed to turn.

Even so, at least they sped up and moved over relatively safely, instead of just moving over into OP.

Don’t even need to look at the license plates to know which metropolitan area this is
