Makes me immediately think of that scene in the Griswald's - European Vacation where the son has absconded with a nice barmaid.

Oh and back on road manners, riding into Franga the other day, three lanes and Im not hugging the white line - deliberately - and I get a moronic Ke-wee tooting me because he can't squeeze past.

And that was exactly the idea, reduce any risk of being bumped as the driver attempts to squeeze past.

This was around 3pm in the arvo and he must have been delayed all of 20 seconds but he must have been late for his pub appointment!!

I tend to take quite a relaxed approach to merging ie not rushing in and trying to force an opening with plenty of indication time and I generally don't have issues being let in.

Still get morons that clearly don't want to be delayed by a car length but there are plenty of sensible drivers.
