Can someone try to explain or help me understand the mindset of drivers or should I say motorists who are proceeding along on an empty dual lane road in the left lane with nothing but clear road in front of them and suddenly move over into the right / passing lane and do not take any exits for many kilometers and when they do so on a motorway they accelerate and spear across my bows at the last moment to exit left when they could have easily and safely done so by backing off and changed lanes behind me as it baffles me completely
To me a "driver" is a skilled person that knows and follows the rules and is aware of all his/her surroundings knows how to merge seamlessly and is focused on driving safely whereas the average motorist appears know only the basics and has forgotten most of the rules and rarely if ever carries out the basic checks to ensure the vehicle is in a safe roadworthy condition.
This is based on my observations of my fellow road users over say 1 million KLM's seeing faulty lights underinflated tyres failure to indicate or if they do it's a single flash or they have already crossed the dividing line before the indicator flashes.
