next time get out of the car and ask the motorist if he is under distress or within imminent peril. You gotta pretend like you are actually concerned for his safety. When he keeps yelling, just look at him like he's retarded and pretend to pity him.

Just kidding, that's a good way to start a fist fight.

The really spooky part of this is that guy has probably been making left turns at red lights for years, thinking you're supposed to just merge into the traffic or some shit.
>>
Hey let me ask you guys something about driving ettiquette.

Let's say you are in the left turn lane at a green light (but not green arrow). So you are waiting to turn in the left turn lane but you must yield to oncoming traffic.

If you are at the front of the queue and the light turns yellow, do you more or less feel obligated to make your turn?

On the one hand, people in the queue behind you want you to go as quickly as possible, and the yellow gives you the opportunity to turn as oncoming traffic slows to a stop. On the other hand, oncoming traffic doesn't always stop on yellow, which would force you to take a red.

So what do you guys do? Do you take a late left turn, or do you tell people behind you to fuck off? Usually I don't take the turn for safety, but at the expense of making everyone behind me wait.
>>
>>14026543
turn on red. your already in the middle of the intersection, and all of the cars are beaming past yellow. You would have no choice to turn on red or you might impede traffic.
>>
>>14026543
>>14026562
yeah but what if you just wait at the white line instead of pulling into the intersection?

I guess my question is, do you ever just wait at the white line or do you always just pull into the intersection if it's your turn?

No because my safety is worth more than those faggots that should've left earlier if they're in that big of a hurry. If you live in a city that has short light cycles and frequent accidents from entitled assholes running lights you'll learn to wait unless you want to play pinball.

>>14026543
Where I live, most people generally tend to run the first second or two of the red light because they're idiots. So I tend to just wait another cycle, or call it quits and just go straight ahead next cycle if it's too busy (if I'm in a dual ahead + left turn lane). I don't put the car all the way into the intersection if I can help it, half over the line is good.

Also, trying to do the quick get out of the intersection when the light turns red is a REALLY good way to get a fine in the mail from a red light camera.

here you're supposed to sit on the line till it's clear to turn but no one does. what really happens is the first guy pulls out to the middle then the light turns yellow and he gives it shit followed by 6 cars behind him all running the red. lots of accidents around here due to that shit

I pull forward while it's green so that I have to be let through, having already engaged in the turn. When the lights turn yellow and oncoming traffic stops at a safe point I go, getting out of the way before it ever becomes an issue.

Im with this guy, if you're in the left lane and shes merging into you you're using your brake AND throttle hand to hit her car.

Dude stay in control next time and hold on to your bike.

>autism at the gas station
>pic related

Pulling into gas station, I turn in from the entrance on the right, pull all the way through where I am blocking the entrance on the bottom, then back my trailer in so I'm not blocking any gas pumps or entrances. As I'm doing this, old black lady in a G35 (red) turns in, so she has to wait a second while I back the trailer in to get it along the curb. After I'm all parked, I get out of the truck and she starts honking the horn and throwing up her arms. I just look at her and shake my head.

I think that she was old and retarded and thought I blocked like half of the pumps. But there was a ton of room.

Does anyone know what antifreeze Toyota Tacoma 2007 takes?

I look on forums online and they all give contradictory information. Some same pink is just pre-diluted red. I saw one thread where someone said green cannot go in alum blocks, then immediately someone else said green works in everything.

also, inb4 just mix ammonia and bleach inside radiator

green works in everything, but you cant mix 2 different types. red is not diluted pink. gook red is not the same as US pink.

Canadafag here

if you are turning, and waiting for on coming traffic due to green light, once its yellow/red and you are in the middle of the intersection then you must turn and go before the lights go green for the next set of traffic. if you are turning and someone rekz your car because "i need muh timmys!" after you waited in the intersection to actually turn, then its their fault because they cant go until the intersection is clear.

This. The other day I was leaving a parking spot (I backed in), this bitch comes whipping around the corner of the building in her GMC piece of shit, slams the breaks when she sees me. I had already stopped. So I figure, sure, she's letting me go. So I continue to finish leaving my spot. Nope. She hits the acceleration again, goes into the other lane, cuts people off and nearly destroys my front end. I beep beep her and she doesn't even look at me. Mid 30s woman with black hair. Didn't even look like she cared or was in a hurry.

Seconded.

And to all those saying "stay behind the white line", that's wrong (here anyways). You are to claim the intersection. And there is time.

The green for cross traffic has a delay after your red light. It means you have time to fully ensure that oncoming traffic is stopping/stopped before turning left in front of them.

You are supposed to be in the intersection already, over the white line. The people behind you are not (even if it's a huge intersection and has the space to do so), though this double claiming does happen at frustrating intersections a lot.
