The main people I see do it are the people that cruise in the left
lane at the speed limit or less that aren't paying attention to their
driving and swerve at the last second.  I've even seen one of them
come to a complete stop on a busy interstate waiting until the traffic
cleared so that they could make their exit.  The created a traffic jam
more than half a mile long before they got over.

Just so the record is clear, I don't exit from anything other than the
appropriate lane.
