Default So the wife pulls an AWESOME move...

She's all excited to tell me when I got home Sunday afternoon.

Travelling south in her car on the 4 lane, about 10 miles from the house, following 8 bikes with passengers. She's maybe 1/2 to 1/4 mile from where the 4 lane turns to 2 lanes, plenty of signs "merge right", "left lane ends".

They're all going around 60 or so MPH when from behind she spots Mr. Douchebag in his SUV at about 80 in the left lane obviously going to pass the whole group in that short distance.

Seeing an almost sure disaster she eases into the left lane and doesn't allow DB to pass. He's of course furious, flipping her off and cussing her in the mirror, all the while she's smiling back at him. She did at least flip him back.

And she was so proud to tell me that the bikers saw (sensed) the whole fiasco and gave her the thumbs up and two finger heart thump.

Atta girl!!

Awesome!
And hopefully Karma deals the DB some justice some day.
