I was at the stop sign first. Like, totally first. I was sitting there all alone, for like 30 seconds, wanting to make a left turn, but was forced to wait - and wait - and wait - until traffic in front of me (going both directions) had finally cleared. After a minute, it begins to look like things are clearing up. I look to my left, and there are no cars coming! Yes!
Then, I look to my right, and ... what's this? Where did this car come from? And why did it pull up in front of the stop sign?
Now I can't see! Now I have to wait!
Again!

He hates you and thinks you are a pussy for not going when you had the chance like five different times and isn't about to let you and your cowardice waste anymore of his time.
-
just go at the same time as the car on your right. except do it the first time.

What a baby

he wanted to see around you to make sure traffic was clear to make his right turn

Oh my god rake you are the driver that sucks here. If I'm behind you I am just going to u-turn and find an alternate route
-
Plan your route so you don't have to make an unprotected left turn. Companies like UPS do this as often as possible, and so will I.

there is no "being behind me." it was impossible to make the left turn. i went at the earliest possible time. a line of cars headed in both directions. nothing i could do. then, when i finally can go (after a long wait), a car pulls up (seemingly from out of nowhere!) and takes away the sight line that i was just about to use.

this isn't a safety issue. it's a decency issue.
i don't have any issue with the car wanting to turn right. but please, respect my desire to turn left, and understand that by blocking my view, i am unable to do so. and again, as previously noted, i was at the stop sign first.
-
If it bothers you that much, j rake, you could always just pull your car far enough to the right so that nobody can get around you to turn right when you are waiting at the intersection.

Well if the car turning right can't turn right, you probably shouldn't be turning left.

Did I mention the gun rack in the back window and empty keystone lights in the bed?

Hang some truck nuts from your passenger side mirror so nobody pulls past you on your right.

Just turn your right blinker on when you are turning left.

Was it safely clear before " idiot" pulled up?
If it was clear for a 2 second turn then you're being a little bitch
-
be safe, jrake. This is not one of those times to be a "tough guy".
-
If it was clear on left you could easily dodge the traffic from the right if you pulled out without a clear visual
-
HEY WHILE YOU'RE SITTING THERE WITH YOUR THUMB UP YOUR ASS WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO AHEAD AND TAKE A PICTURE BECAUSE UH YOU KNOW IT WILL LAST LONGER DUMBFUCK

You realize j rake has to wait on 2 lanes of traffic and the idiot only had to wait on 1, right?
-
rake,
not a week has gone by in the last five years where i haven't run into this when trying to go home from work and not a week has gone by where i haven't wanted to fight the person that did it. unless you run into the situation a lot, it's not a big deal. if you do...infuriating. don't let these idiots get you down.
-

how did taking a picture add any extra time? re-read the OP.
i took the picture of a car that was blocking my view, and because the car was blocking my view, i might as well just turn my car off and put it in park until he leaves. i was stuck there regardless, might as well take a picture, explain the situation and educate the goEMAW masses.

thanks for your support. i really appreciate it.

it doesn't matter if i pull out a camera. my car might as well have been stuck in quick sand.
i was stuck.

Just as bad: Pulling up to a stop light behind a huge truck and you can't see the light. eff, man. I can't see that rough ridin' light. How am I supposed to know when to go?
-
Cut the crap rake and get the plates. Well take care of it.
-
Here's a scenario that I hate: Pulling up to a red light/yellow light, but still pretty far away. I'm in the right lane because I'm turning right. There's a car right in front of me, and they don't plan to turn right. No one is to the left of us. GET IN THE LEFT LANE!! YOU HAVE NO REASON TO BE IN THE RIGHT LANE AND NOW I HAVE TO WAIT ON YOU BEFORE I CAN TURN RIGHT!!!

I'm confused.. there were no cars coming but the guy on your right stuck around in your sightline long enough for you to get out your phone and take a pic? Why didn't he take his right turn if no cars were coming?

i shouldn't have said "no cars." there were definitely cars. it was more like, "hooray, upcoming pocket after these few cars pass..."
-
If the car can't turn right it'll be hard to turn left anyway.

For some reason, this picture makes me think of the People's Court when Judge Wapner made people go up to the board and demonstrate how the accident happened.
-
I hate this also as much as when I am at a red light trying to turn right and someone in the left turn lane just keeps creeping up so I can't see if there is any traffic for my right on red turn.
:curse:

I think Unruly is saying that the person making the left turn should have to wait back and the person making the right turn should inch ahead. The person making the right turn has the easier turn and will be able to make the turn a higher percentage of the time, so they should be allowed to go first. Pretty much the opposite of what you are pissed at.

i could never.
not over something like this, anyway.

i once had a friend who got so irritated by me that he challenged me to a fight.
i told him to give me his jacket.
"my jacket?" he said. "what for?"
"i don't think you'll want to walk around in a bloody jacket," i told him.

Lol power move rake

anyway, even after that, he still seemed interested in fighting.
so he begins to pull off his jacket. problem is, it's one of these ...

trust me, i had no interest in fighting him. none at all. he lived a few streets over from me, we were good friends, his parents knew my parents, and so on. but i mean, HIS FACE WAS BURIED IN A JACKET! i had a wide open shot here. the opportunity was too good to pass up.
days later, at his funeral, that's how i explained it.
his parents were upset, of course, and i didn't blame them. i even admitted at the time that whacking him with the trumpet case was a bit excessive, as was carving my name in his abdomen with a rock. (wearing his jacket to the funeral was also poor judgment.)
I'VE COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN!
