This is when it gets really dangerous.
I always get out of the way when people want to fly past in the right line too, but the other day a tradie in a ute comes roaring up behind me while I'm in the right lane overtaking traffic in the left. I was already sitting about 5km over the limit and as soon as I cleared the traffic I indicated to move left but he'd already floored it and swerved left to get around me.
If I hadn't had one eye on my rear-view and swerved straight back into the right lane he would have rear-ended me at 110+ km an hour.
Yeah, I like the "early indicate" too when one of those zooms up behind as I'm overtaking. Yes, I will get out of your way, just give me a sec. The crazy undercutters though, when I've already got the blinker on. Yeesh! You know one day they are going to be the cause of a news story about why a freeway is shut down
