    What he’s describing aren’t rules for driving in NYC, it’s just an asshole driver. People generally drive more quickly and more closely together here (the same way we walk), but the weaving in and out is a dick move

      That’s fair, I didn’t catch the part that it was on the highway. You do have to weave a bit downtown.

        Got it. The rule in Manhattan is just be assertive. Everyone is suffering driving, and everyone knows it. If you’re assertive people will let you in, if you’re not people are going to blow past you.

        This has, however, gotten much easier with congestion pricing
