Does it bother you when drivers turn left right in front of you?

Question

I'm talking about when you're stopped at an intersection, waiting for green, and the driver directly across from you (when they do not have a left turn signal) turns left as soon as the light turns green, even though it's YOUR right of way (to go straight across)? It's not like I"m slow to move with it goes green, but people still do this and it's another pet peeve of mine..I mean, to think that you're so important that you can just pull out in front of someone with no regard to traffic laws? Well, lots of people break them every day, but this is just one huge Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I honk at them, but I wish I could be more immature and shoot at their tires (if I'm at the right angle to do so)

Answer 1

I used to get pretty upset about that, but then I started teaching traffic school in Arizona, so when I see someone doing something like that, I am happy, because I know they are just another customer for me....

So, let them do what they have to do and smile, knowing that sooner or later there will be a cop in the right place, or a car coming through that they hit... and then they'll regret it.

Answer 2

I teach driving for a living.........yes.............grrrrrrrr......I agree!
We humans tend to have our own individual agenda when we drive, and also tend NOT to share it with other drivers.........life is fast paced.........everyone seems pressed for time.......
When I get cut off by another driver, it's usually an oversight on their part due to inattention or distraction.
I usually justify other's errors by reminding myself that I also make the occasional error while driving.
The aggressive driver usually has more crashes and tickets for traffic violations.
It's important to remember that when we drive, we cannot control what other drivers do, but only what WE do.
Yes, sometimes we have to babysit others on the highways.....
