[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was behind someone in a straight lane who blocked the lane to wait to squeeze into a left turn only lane. Selfish and stupid. Everyone was honking but they wouldn't budge.

I was taught if you miss your turn you DON'T stop. Just maintain the flow of traffic and look for the next turn. It was less than 1/8 mile up the road, easy u-ey.

Have people not been taught this? Why is missing a turn the end of the world? GPS? [/quote]
Wait, what? So was the turn lane full and they were just behind the last car waiting to get in the lane? Or were they stopped beside cars in the lane?

I ask because for some reason, people in DC think that making a legal left hand turn that stops traffic behind them in that lane is cause to honk, threaten, and scream at people unless they either drive into head on traffic or mow down any pedestrians in the crosswalk. The driver isn't doing anything illegal, they are just mad they have to stop for 5 seconds on a busy city street.[/quote]

I don't care. I didn't pay over $100k for this Range Rover to sit waiting behind your ugly Toyota. Get out of my way.[/quote]

Okay, I laughed at this. Well done.

But NGL, I actually do kind of feel that way when driving my > $100k Benz. If I'm in the mid-range SUV, not so much. [/quote]

It's ok, I practice the reverse.  You will always lose a game of chicken with me when I'm in my "city-loved" Toyota.  I don't care about a scratch on mine.  I know how you feel about the Benz.  :wink: [/quote]
