Default Drivers changing lanes into you

Never owned a car in my life where so many people just change lanes into me. Granted the car is small and hard to see but this is getting ridiculous. This probably happens to me at least once a day.



These should let you know im there as well as punish your ear drums for being stupid.

Used to happen to me when I first bought my car. I guess after a while you realize you aren't all that visible from other cars and you don't give anyone a chance to run into your lane...

...and my car is much louder now

Where did you get the horn upgrade and how much was it? Worth it?

happens to me a lot too, i have thought about building directional side horns.... but seems like too much effort. to avoid side swipes i pretend im a motorcycle and just focus on never hovering next to cars. especially soccer moms driving land boats.

happened to me when I first got the car, I also had people pulling out in front of me often , being silver kinda makes it worst I think. I think the guys with loud exhausts have an advantage on this one. After I installed DRL's on my car it hasn't happened since.
