So it behooves one to consider the many other reasons for an action other than the one you cite.
Excellent points.

And no, I don't drive that color of Lexus.


In regards to those who truly are jerks though, I have quit waiting until the last minute to merge.

If there is an opening, even 100 yards (strong lob wedge ) short of the end of the designated cart/bike lane...I will get over in the car lane.

I have found it to be a lot safer than waiting until the last minute.
