| Letting people out at junctions. Do you let people out at junctions? Or do you just barge past? (Obviously it depends how busy the road but we'll assume it is safe and convenient to slow and let someone out)
I let most people out exept for TAXI's (They never as a rule let me out) and TRACTORS (Hate being stuck behind them and just can't bring it on myself)  |

| if they filter through my personal profile of people that deserve to be let out, then yes. If i've tarred you with the same brush as all other people that fit the profile i've developed on you without ever actually having talked to you, hard cheese.
Does anyone else create mental profiles, or am i just wrong?

| If they don't try and push out I bet you wouldn't notice them!

How do we make the judgement call though - is it the car or the person in the car? Or is it both? |

| Come to think of it - I haven't heard from Buddy for a while? Is she OK? Do you have anything to confess Trooper?  |

| I tend to let one person out per junction with the exception of taxi drivers. I make sure and look at them as I roll by(I realise they don't care cause their fair is paying). Sometimes if I’m in a good mood I’ll leave a tempting space then close it off as the taxi moves, I despise taxi drivers.
