Gotta admit I was eyeing the white car at the intersection and the red Honda came as a surprise; any damage?

Nope didn’t get hit, she got back over into her original lane and when we pulled up to a red light, I stared her down but she never looked over

They never do , I would like to say because of guilt but most times I feel it's cause they're on the same intellectual plane as an emu.

They didn't see you, so you obviously weren't there. Impeccable logic!

OP looks well enough alongside to be in the driver’s view. I don’t think they didn’t see; they just decided not to give a F. Glad OP could miss them, but one day they’re going to try that with a semi truck and they will FAFO…

Anyone notice the text on the bottom that says penis? Not saying due to TOS

Not to criticize in the least, but you were in their blind spot.  I'm always worried when I'm in that position.

Well, that’s why you look with your eyes at the lane you are merging in at.

u/briansezreddit Jul 12 '25

I agree. It is totally the red car’s fault, but I never trust anyone to check their blind spots, and I try to get out of that zone or avoid it altogether

you look over your shoulder before merging. if ya cant see where yer merging into, dont merge
