No good deed goes unpunished
So then I'm heading into work and their is an accident on the highway. Big large sign "Crash ahead. Merge right" Of course everyone ignores this because, hey, if you stay in the left lane as long as possible you might gain 2 seconds of trip time on everyone else. So I of course stay in the left lane along with them.
So we are going slower and slower - waiting for the last possible - OK... I guess I REALLY DO have to merge over second. And there is the occasional Hey look, there is no one in the left lane up ahead, why don't I just tick everyone off by zooming down it right up to the crash and then try to squeeze back in.. When all of a sudden the cars in front of my kind of surge forward and then all pull right. Cool. Someone is letting us in. So I move foward and there is this guy on his motorcycle just sitting in the right lane - holding all the cars up, and letting us merge over. Cool. What a guy!
Of course the car right behind him fails to see the nicety in this and rewards him by laying on the horn and yelling at him, to which he replies by just sitting there and yelling back at the guy.
Last I saw the motorcycle was cutting the guy off and not letting him pass. I figure there is a good chance they got in an accident as well... so much for being nice I guess.
