But let me move that to second, the first now being: Does anyone who actually does that have even the most miniscule of driving skills whatsoever, and do they consider themselves a hazardous obstruction on the roadways as they should?

:oops: A little insight into how this person thinks: FROM THE BELT LADY THREAD - "Things like this irritate me."

"I might have stood there for a couple hours arguing with her and saying how unhappy I was with the product she was selling and I would keep asking for my money back. During my diatribe, she would probably not make any sales.

In any confrontation, physical or verbal, the goal is to cause the other person more unhappiness than they cause you."

Can we spell G-R-U-M-P-Y O-L-D M-A-N? :sad:

In my case, sometimes I turn right on red and sometimes I don't feel like it.

I do it once because some people either are not looking or don’t know they can do it ,it works they move , should I sit there and wait through a whole traffic cycle so not to offend them . I am not surprised at all by your statement , after reading many of your posts

I think she may be pointing to the poster just wanting to annoy people either here or on the road. But I agree with you.. why? Why wait if they are clear to go? Only thing I come up with is that in some states they have to stop on red and wait no matter. So it's habit, ignorance, or whatever else when they do that in states that allow you to turn right. But there are some signs for that in a few places that specifically tell you to wait for green even when turning right. In Vegas it was a double lane going right that had the stop & wait for green at the intersection. Probably for safety but that I get.

I used to just lightly tap the horn when I came across one of "those people." Most appear to wake up and go like they should. But these days like I mentioned... the easily offended may be armed.

I think we have veered off the original topic. I believe the OP was looking for witnesses to the accident.

Thread Closed. If anyone witnessed the accident they can PM the OP.
