As annoying as it is when people do that you are better off slowing down than to be an ass as you could cause an accident.

I tend to let road ragers go through. Eventually this stuff will catch up to them, they'll either get stopped by the cops or end up in an accident.
Seeing some jack-wagon cut me off by a few feet (about 3 feet, and I was in the slow lane!!!), speeding away, only to see him on the side of the road with the cop gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside.

lane.

Whenever I see another driver signal wanting to enter my lane and there is only like 2 cars lengths or less between the car in front of me, I speed up and don't let the other driver in. Several of times I've had them honk at me for not letting them in D:

That's about the worse response to have - it makes you an offensive rather than defensive driver. Just focus on where you're trying to go and leave your emotions out of the driving equation - you'll have much better days as a result.

Plus it only may shave what? Three seconds off the commute? All the ill-feeling on both parties is hardly worth it.

Seeing decrepit people using their turn signals lately has been pretty damn disgusting.

When someone indicates that they need to move over, you can slow down to give them some space. Makes everyone's lives easier.

I do it for you. You should do it for me.

Can't, the guy behind me is riding my ass and I'm more important than you are. :D

Try living somewhere with real traffic. You end up practically going backwards with that attitude.

In addition, there is an assumption made that people actually use their turn signals. I do, but rarely... RARELY see others.. its more of a swerve and oh shit, they are now in front of me.
