Not sure what makes people think they’re entitled to do this. Caravan turns left on a yellow arrow (turning to a red arrow) even through traffic was completely congested. Sat in intersection because he had nowhere to go. He then sat some more and blocked out our two lanes when we it turned green for us.
I see this all the damn time. Literally prevented 3 dozen vehicles from passing through the intersection because he didn’t want to wait 45 more seconds for her next green arrow. His wife also madw a crude gesture at the sedan in front of the semi for honking at them.
LOOK.
THINK.
DON’T BE A JACKASS.
If you know traffic isn’t moving, then don’t run the yellow light. You are not more important than one single person on this road, and, I daresay, this planet.
Well anyway, just another Monday for me.

In the NE(and it’s spreading to the south, we call this blocking the box. I make sure my horn works about 2x a week with one of these idiots at the receiving end of it.

Yup. Don’t enter the intersection if you can’t clear the intersection!

I see this almost every day and it infuriates me. Such a selfish thing to do.

This is perfectly normal and acceptable in any city in New Jersey. It literally makes me want to snap. Daily.

Welcome to the average driver in Toronto, especially in downtown or along Hwy 7.

to be fair he was probably just excited with his caravan’s superior handling

Send that pic to the local constabulary’s Facebook page. Driver/Owner of said minivan deserves an award for that level of idiocy.

See the same on a daily basis. Really wish cops would start ticketing these assholes.

I’ll scoot through an expiring yellow arrow at the last second IF there’s a clear path through the intersection.
