So let me get this, Dhesi.  Let me make sure that I'm getting your thinking
right.

In order to prevent people from violating a law that virtually nobody obeys,
you would propose a new law that virtually nobody would obey.

Sounds completely like the Dhesi logic that if you're rear ended while
you're at a stop light, it's your fault.

Also, how would this be enforced?  I can just imagine a cop trying to keep
track of the lane changes of each car.  Oh, yeah, and how do you measure the
time period?  Does the cop sit there with a stopwatch?  And how are those
watches calibrated?  And what if my watch says I didn't violate the Dhesi
law but the cop's did?

Just grow up, learn to drive, and accept lane changes are part of the game
of driving.
