I’ve lived outside of Boston my whole life and heard the Boston left once, and it was being referred to blocking a lane to take the left when there are no traffic lights, not go when it goes green. But why wouldn’t you let the driver go? If you don’t then the driver taking a left blocks everyone behind him/her if there are people behind you.

It won’t kill the other 2 drivers to wait for us and the car behind us like the law dictates. In heavier traffic we might’ve let him go, but not with so few cars. He was just impatient.

I think in this situation it’s not a question of letting someone go. It’s about who has the right of way. If the cars behind him have to wait, will it really ruin their day to wait safely in line like everyone else for another minute or so? Let’s say that the OP, for the sake of this conversation, didn’t read the truck’s intentions and took off quickly. The truck would slam into the OP and it would also be the truck’s fault for not yielding as required by law.

If they aren’t moving before the green light, I pretend I’m in a race. When the light goes green I immediately move up to try and block them.

Unfortunately this usually doesn’t work. Nearly all of these assclowns move before the light turns green.
