Tunnel Vision

Driving to work, I noticed a police car pull up beside me. Then I noticed the car in front of the police car do an unsignalled lane change directly in front of me. "Foolish driver," I thought, "it's a bad idea to do an unsignalled lane change directly in front of a cop!"

My bad. Unbeknownst to me (because it was just outside my range of vision), the cop car already had his lights on. The lane change was unsignalled because the driver was rattled about being pulled over for a traffic stop. All three our cars had to do an awkward series of lane changes to make the traffic stop happen.
