cough, it's embarrassing when that happens, don't you think? 
Cmon, don't tell me you have never had to make a lane change at the last second?
We're all just trying to ahead every day. There's no need to struggle to be more "right" than the next person. The motorway is just another little playground to enjoy ourselves on - its just a dangerous playground that's all, and we will all be better off not just making sure we are safe, but to afford others just that little bit more space to live their lives and have their fun too.
Try this exercise some time. When you are driving along the motorway and not particularly busy, single out one car and imagine that person worried about their job, or their kids, or their girlfriend who has just ditched them, or some other thing that could really load up their emotional state. Imagine them having kids and buying a house, and how they FEEL about that. Now project that image onto everyone on the motorway around you - try to see the look on everyones' faces (heh watch where you are going pls). You see, they are just like you and I - part of humanity that feels hurt, angry, joyful, sad, etc sometimes. The old gran holding you up is probably feeling quite scared, "ohhh don't follow so closely, dear!" The person who nearly sideswiped you was possibly in tears just ditched by their spose. So we are not always right - let someone else go first occasionally - give them a wave too!
Have a nice day!
