Deep Anger

As I mentioned in my first blog post, I live in Paramus, NJ (a.k.a. mall-town, USA). As I was driving to Garden State Plaza, which EVERYONE has to go to in December, my car came to a full stop... I live 5 minutes from the mall and i had to stop for 10 minutes just because someone didn't want the cars that were merging in from Route 17 to go in front of them. Wow, way to cause a huge back up by stopping in between both lanes. Now you or the other person can't go. what are you gonna do now? He could have easily just let the other person pass him and he could have gone right after that person. No one was telling him to let everyone go past him, just one person. I believe that some people should just let other people pass at certain times because it is just stupid to just cause everyone to stop just because you don't want one person to pass. In the New Jersey Driver's Manual it states "slow down to make the pass easier for the other motorist. (N.J.S.A. 39:4-87)". Weren't we all supposed to read this manual before we got our licenses?

I agree. It is very annoying when traffic jams are caused merely by people being petty and inconsiderate. In situations like this you are 100% right by saying that if every person just ket one person in front of them we would be able to avoid so many traffic jams.

Haha, this was a good post Deep! I agree with you too! I don't understand how people are just so child-like when it comes to waiting in line, for just ONE person!!
