I'd say these drivers are in the lower 5%ile because what usually happens is that they now block two lanes or almost crash trying to go into the corner together.
It was luck that the left lane was moving and that there was space. I don't want to see this kind of move from a driverless car.
It wasn't luck. There is always space between cars during stop-and-go traffic as cars take time to accelerate.
A skilled driver always makes the smooth transition into those gaps. I know most HNers are goody-rule-followers and can never appreciate the skill required to make that maneuver consistently. But, this is a clear example of separation of intelligence / skill and I'm happy with the bet that these are signals of intelligence
