I think I may have been an SC yesterday, either that, or I was horribly rude to someone I know! Here in NJ, we don't really have turn lanes, but jughandles.
So when I go home, i turn off the main road, come down a ramp, and can either go left or right. Left is your u-turn, you go up, and turn left back onto the other side of the main road, and right takes you onto a secondary road. That's the way I go.
There is a stop sign at the end of the ramp, then a sharp turn, with a 3 way stop. As we stop first, cars coming off have the right of way.
So i stop, as there is traffic coming straight, and pause, and see more cars coming. I perhaps COULD have gone, but its not always clear for the 3-way who has the right of way, so I waited. Mind you, it was like 3 seconds. car behind me does not like this, and honks, and then throws up her hands like 'what are you waiting for?"
I never do this, but I was tired, cranky, and NOT in the mood, so I showed her the rude finger....she then begins waving at me! I then thought, oh shit, is that someone I know????? But i didn't recognize her or the car, so maybe her waving at my finger was how she reacted. I then made my turn, and she followed, fortunately when I turned into my complex, she kept going!
Oops.
