What Can You Legally Do When Someone Cuts You Off?
Getting cut off in traffic is one of the most frustrating parts of driving. You’re keeping a safe following distance, doing everything right, and suddenly someone forces their way in—close enough to trigger your side sensors. You think about getting out to block them, but with cars piling up behind you, it feels unfair to everyone else.
And if you hold your ground and bump them? Now you’re stuck dealing with repairs, insurance, and a ton of unnecessary stress. But if you let it go, it just feels like honest drivers always lose.
Legally, your best bet is to honk, flash your lights, and capture the moment on dashcam if possible. You can report it, but it won’t help you in that moment. The real battle is emotional. Not letting someone in doesn’t make you rude. Letting them in doesn’t make you weak. You're choosing sanity over chaos.
What would you do? Or what have you done in this kind of situation?
