Today I was driving in to work on 495. I was in the middle lane doing the
speed limit. In the low speed lane was a large truck that had a small fire
department pickup truck following it.
In front of me was another pickup truck and behind me another big truck.
In the high speed lane was yet another pickup truck coming up on me fast.

As I was going past the fire department pickup truck in the slow lane, it
started coming into my lane. There were trucks all around me so I could do
nothing to get out of its way without hitting another truck.
I honked my horn. It kept coming.
I moved over as much as I could in my lane so I was almost touching the guy
in the high speed lane and started honking my horn over and over.
Finally the guy looked over at me and moved back into his lane. It was
fairly clear he never saw me at all in that lane. He had seen all the
trucks, but not my little car and thought he could just move into that
“empty” space.
If my car had been any wider at all he would have hit me.

I understand there was a major fire in Boston yesterday and two
firefighters died. So, I’m sure there was a lot on that guys mind. I’m
sure there is a lot on the mind of every firefighter and their families
today.
But, don’t change lanes without looking. And, it shouldn’t take half a
dozen or more honks of a horn to get your attention.
