Can happen. Few years ago , when I lived on the Shore I was coming south onto the Harbour Bridge. I in leftmost lane, needed to move to lane on right (in those days left lane was forced to Ponsonby). VERY heavy traffic, nose to tail. Put my indicator on and waited. Car in front of me to the right indicated to move left (ie into my lane). I dropped back a bit to open a space. He pulled left into that, I pulled right into the space he left, as he moved. Looked into my mirror, and loo and behold, the guy now behind me was indicating and moving into the space I just vacated . AND the guy who HAD been behind me before I lane changed moved into the space the last dude vacaated. To top it off, then the guy two spaces back moved left into the now vacant space.

6 cars changed lanes within a few seconds, using one space. All without hassle , all unrehearsed. But if you saw it , you'd have sworn it had been choreographed. I'm sure though that the Stans and Mabels who saw it would have been purple about such "dangerous driving"

I stuck my arm out the window and gave a high five, one guy tooted, and we all went on our way looking very pleased.

It's really good when you run into a group of competant drivers or riders. Happens sometimes on the open road, really good when you get that.

Although I think I'd rather be in my cage in that stiuation. Ive had family in Saudi in the past. Some of the driving I see in NZ is very similar...
