Did we buy dude magnets??

More like douche magnets. With warmer weather I've been getting tailgated and cut off more often. It seems to occur more while I'm in the Z (Fridays are fun days when more people mess with me than anything else).

Last weekend some dude in an old 4cy Altima sped up right behind me and nearly clip my front end from the right turning lane. I ended up behind him anyways because of traffic, and he completely ignored me while blasting his music. He was hitting at least 80mph on a 40mph zone just to pull off that stunt.

A couple of days ago a white Volvo tailgated and cut me off as I approached an exit. I ended up behind him as well. The guy continues to tailgate and cut other people ahead. He probably hit at least 80mph on a 65mph zone. On average, even at 70-75mph freeway speeds people still tailgate and cut me off, but that's not car dependent.

At least twice I'm on the left lane, and as the right lane ends either:
- I get tailgated as I approach single lane, and the driver cuts me off using the opposite lane.
- Driver keeps driving next to me until the lane ends, speeds up and cuts me off at the last minute.

When trying to merge people actually speed up next to me or past me making it difficult to merge. O_o

It's not too often, but that's what I've noticed the past few weeks.
