    yea, im here..

    as i was driving to work today i end up driving by a cop who had pulled two cars over (haha!) anyway im driving and there's a side street to my right. a van is there at the stop sign, i have no stop sign. hes there for a little while, and im pretty sure he saw me.

    so what does he do

    a)wait for me to pass and then turn
    b)pull out anyways

    if you answered b you're right! asshole pulled out right in front of me, and then stopped in the middle of the road. and since i didn't want to drive on the other side of the road, i waved him to go.

    if that damn cop wasn't there id lay on my little horn and make angry faces at him.

    Lay on your little horn anyway.

    The guy had a stop and I sincerely doubt that Connecticut doesn't also have laws that state that if you have to cross lanes of traffic to make your turn, then you'd better know that you'll be able to complete your turn before you even start.

      haha. this is not the first time this has happened. it seems like almost everyday (ok not really) this happens at the same spot.

      sometimes i don't slow down or stop, just to scare the crap out of them (no i wont hit them) and maybe next time they see my little corolla they'll think again.

        I absolutely hate when people KNOW they don't have time to go, but go anyway, cutting people off, and going as slow as humanly possible.

        What pisses me off even more are the assholes and senile old farts that do yield for your right of way, but start executing their turn or start to go before you're even out of the way and nearly hit you. WAIT until my car has gone past you before you turn, idiot! Some douchebag in a Ford Excursion almost hit me a few Fridays ago....I had the right of way, going straight, he was turning right from the park, stopped at a stop sign. Before my car was even perpendicular to his, he was already starting to turn out of instinct, I swerved into the oncoming lane and nearly got hit by oncoming cars. Fucking idiot. He then proceeded to tailgate me until I turned right onto my boyfriend's street and he kept going straight.

        Then yesterday, at the second of the two 4 way stops before my street, I got there first, this senile old bastard in a brand new sparkly white Cadillac got there seconds after I did, I proceeded to go....before I was even HALFWAY through the intersection, the senile old bastard was already starting to go, too! He nearly clipped the back end of my car! WAIT UNTIL IT'S SAFE BEFORE YOU GO, RETARDS!

          Honk anyway, sarasquirrel. Last I checked, this state doesn't have laws against using your horn for its intended purpose, and it may have alerted the cop to the van-driver's idiocy.

          I, too, hate the people who appear to wait until the last possible moment before pulling out, so that they nearly hit you. I also hate the ones who come blasting up to the stop sign/light and slam on the brakes at the last possible moment, so they look like they're going to hit you but aren't actually. ::shakes fist::

          I had one of the impatient ones the other day, actually. I was approaching a four-way stop on our residential street, and came to a stop. There were two cars directly opposite me, no signals, and about ten-fifteen seconds after I stopped, a car came up to the stop sign on my left. Car across the street (who had arrived shortly before me) started across, and I started too after a moment. Suddenly, the car from the left swung into the intersection as soon as the first car cleared it, cutting me off. Thankfully not in much danger of hitting me, since I had to get my Jeep going uphill, but hey, cretin! You didn't have the right of way in the slightest!

            My favorite is the folks that think it's their god given right to turn right on red. Normally they exercise that right as you are right on top of them.

              My great-uncle has a story relating to that, actually, only it involves Mountain Switchbacks, a Fully-loaded 26-wheel Logging truck, and a Moron in a sportscar.

              Moron decided to go sailing up the switchback at about 100 Miles per hour (this was in the 50's so that was stupid-fast)/ Great-uncle was going down same switchbacks with about 200+ tons of Mid-growth BC lumber. (Aka; trees that are about 50-80 years, old, and BIG)

              Moron swung around one switchback too far, and skidded Under the Truck's Trailer axle. Needless to say, the Sportscar was rolled up like a cigar tube when the Axle snapped and dropped the entire back half of the trailer onto the top of the car.

              2-month investigation on my Great-Uncle (without pay) for the Transportation Safety Board to finally say 'Yeah, he did nothing wrong. Fix the truck and give him his back pay.'

              Moron tried to Sue, because he somehow had more lives than a cat, and avoided getting turned into lumpy salsa.
