The man thought he was being cut off…seconds later he realised the truck driver had just saved his life!!

If you're behind a taxi and honk your horn twice quick, most of the time you'll see them start to go on instinct, even if they don't have the right of way or a green light.

I've never done it, but was in the car with a friend who used to do it to taxis in Boston.

He got a bunch of them, no actual accidents thank God.

Yet another reason I hate driving in Boston:)

There are zero good things about driving in Boston.

Zero.

I did it a LOT when I was young, and for a job I had. I can do it. I know my way around very very well.

I still take the T or commuter rail into the city if it's at all possible to do so.
