Perhaps "cutting off" is a better phrase, but that isn't quite right, either. I mean: Clicking on your blinker (turn signal thing), looking in the mirror, seeing nobody, pulling into the right lane, but there is a police car there. You pull back to the left, he pulls to the right, all is well. Except...it's a police car.
Anyway, we call it "pulling over on someone", when no accident occurs, but you mistakenly force someone off the road. It's usually okay. Somebody might yell at somebody, but everyone eventually goes on their merry way. Of course...this situation was slightly different. |
It must be a regional thing because I've never heard it called "pulling over on someone". "Cutting off" is how I've always heard it referred to. And in a lot of places it leads to a lot more than yelling.
Btw, don't they teach looking over your shoulder anymore? I'm honestly asking this because we were taught to not just rely on the mirrors, but to look over our shoulder too because of blind spots. _________________ Roqoo Depot co-founder.
