I'm pretty new at driving and yesterday was taking a left turn in a small city's downtown area. It was from a side street onto a busier road, and I had a stop sign. I needed to turn left, but there was this huge delivery truck parked at the corner, so I could not see any of the cars coming from the left. Cars coming from the left could not see me until I was fully into the road.
What does one do in this situation? Kind of creep forward so that you're halfway into the road till you can finally see, at which point the driver coming from the left will see you and hopefully let you go? Or do you just take the left turn and hope anyone barreling at you from the left will hit the brakes?
This is an accident waiting to happen...
