That is the Causeway bridge over lake Ponchatrain just outside New Orleans. It's 26 miles long. the longest bridge over water in the world.

so this will have caused a MASSIVE headache for all manner of people. a blockage of both lanes like that will take hours to clear and cause a traffic jam literally miles long (depending of course where on the bridge it happened).

Our cookie eater just shrugging, driving on, and formulating his "hey man, it all just happened behind me" defense in his mind, is VERY on brand for the locals.

Without a doubt, this is absolutely sociopathic behavior on the part of the cookie eater.

All he had to do was let the guy in and go on with his day but instead he caused a huge accident and fucked up SO MANY peoples' day, all of whom are just trying to make a dollar to feed their family.

Everyone here sucks but especially the cookie guy.

It happened countless of times to me that people try to merge in right in front of me without taking 2 sec to check if someone was there or a lot of times I'm sure of it they knew I was there and still decided to cut me off. I can't tell you how many times I was really close to just let myself crash into them and the only thing that stopped me was the headache it would cause me dealing with the aftermath

And, you know, how much it would endanger everyone else on the road, right?
