When driving, what prompts people (when entering or exiting a highway or turn lane) to wait until the last possible moment to "wedge themselves in" at the expesne of those who entered the lane properly and have been waiting their turn?

If it is a situation where they are trying to cut in front of the line, these people are selfish jerks. Sometimes the driver doesn't realize what lane they need to be in because the sign markings aren't in the right place, and they're not purposely trying to cut people off (I've done this many times). Sometimes the driver forgets that he wanted to make a turn at that light until he gets there (I've done that occasionally also). I hate when people on the highway have to cut across 2-3 lanes of traffic immediately before their exit. Those that do it on purpose are sickos, those who do it because they didn't realize it was their exit until the last minute are doing something very dangerous. Best thing is to not take a chance, get off instead at the next exit, and find your way back to where you were supposed to go.

Patience. Not having any and the feeling of they are the only person on the road trying to get somewhere important.
Occasionally though, someone is not sure where they are going and they make that last minute decision to cut you off. Either way it's pretty annoying, but I am guilty of the second scenerio a time or two myself. I usually give that apologetic wave when I do it, unless the guy behind me just jumps the "rudeness" gun right away, in which case, I give them the single finger wave.

It's not good! Some may be unfamiliar with the route, or relying on a navigator who's hesitant to call it until they are sure. At maximum speeds, it doesn't give you much time to judge; and if you are expert at judging, or familiar with the route, you are going to make that turn and indicate your intention a lot earlier than those who haven't been this way for some years.

I don't know about "sound" or "logical," but it appears that the main reason is that they don't want to wait in line or take their turn. These are the folks who want to be FIRST, who don't want to wait, and will cut you off and risk an accident to be in front of as many people as possible. I think it has something to do with being overwhelmed by feelings of insecurity and impotence, and using a car to compensate.
My reaction is to give them room and let them have their little victory. I'm never in a bad enough mood to fight over road space!

in case you supply your finished existence to Christ you're that a lot more suitable prepared and that a lot more suitable like Him once you meet Him than in case you supply the perfect ten minutes of your existence to Christ. you won't be able to ever, regardless of the truth that in case you gave your finished existence to Christ, be suitable without Him, it truly is why we desire Christ. jointly only because we are able to't be suitable this should not be an excuse to placed off attempting. laying aside being Christian is only as a lot a sin as the different sin. there's a common view that when you die there is Heaven and Hell and that is the top. there is also a spotlight on concept over doing as if works did not count number number even as in reality what you do is a mirrored image of what you've faith. those who ascribe to this custom do not usually imagine about what they actually do in heaven. a lot of happiness in existence is attributed to significant artwork it truly is confusing, i'm no longer musically susceptible, for me to have self belief that we are able to all feel free sitting on clouds and playing harps is truly a stretch. i have self belief there's a lot more suitable than a simplistic Heaven and Hell and scripture looks to help the concept. "there are a range of mansions in my Father's living house" Christ taught "if it were no longer so i could have informed you".

I feel these people tend to fit one of three categories
1.) Very old or young and completely panic stricken
2.) Completely out of control of their selves and their sorry lives, feeling the need "take back their power" by being agressive on the road
3.) Completely and totally wasted

there is no logical reason it is stupidity on the part of the people doing it. They should have to take or retake the driving test because they are a menace. I can't tell you the number of accidents I have seen because of this.

Risk assessment... you are like me. You have initiative. However, there are many who are very fearful and lack initiative. Mainly these are women. Let's not even go into the differences, between men and women, regarding brain architecture--spatial reasoning skills. Just know that you have what our invaders like to call, juevos (balls). You and I will assert ourselves on the road. Now, all we have to do is repeal the 16th Amendment, abolish the Federal (not a federal entity in reality) Reserve, and drag the globalist elitists into the streets and slit their throats.

You are correct, sir.
I have driven all over the U.S., and New York City is not for the squeamish.
