Thank you, Hulk, for having a brain. And thank you for using that brain to improvise and adapt to situations for the greater good.
I often find myself as the last car that's sort of blocking the big, right hand turn curve lane. If there is a guy behind me signalling, I'll pull up (unordinarily close to the guy in front of me), and sometimes get closer to the lane beside me. If it helps a couple cars get through, that's the idea.
What you do for the traffic on that bridge is even better. Thank you again.

I know I've told this story 100x here, but this reminds me of how traffic works in Rome. When one direction of traffic is wayyy busier than the other direction, the masses just start taking up more of the street. It's like lane reversal, but without the fancy lights. People just do it. People are just used to adapting. And the people going the other direction, whose extra lane got jacked, don't even care. They just move over, and nary a vaffanculo is yelled.

Squiggs, your reply frustrates me. People like you are the reason why this city is such a gong show when it comes to traffic. Too many people that are too anal to do a small little thing that helps a lot of people.
