Occasionally when you’re driving, you’ll make a mistake and perhaps need to adjust and it can create some awkward situations. Like today, my dad ended up in the wrong lane to go straight instead of turn at a light. He had to cut in line to make sure we could go the right way. It’d be nice if we could communicate “sorry, I screwed up. Excuse me. I just need to slip in there.”

Right now all we have for inter car communication is the horn, which has kind of an aggressive implication to it. This is for trying to de-escalate potential road rage.

    Well picking somebody else’s nose doesn’t really serve you any benefit, so it would be more weird than, say, cutting in line

      You don’t have to understand why they want something for them to want it. You don’t know exactly why someone is cutting into your lane either. You just know it benefits their goals. That’s why they do it. So would you think it’s fine for them to do it?
