Twice this morning, on my drive into work, I had to slow down quickly to avoid read-ending assholes who were making right hand turns from a side street that I was approaching. In the first instance, the driver made a right hand trun onto south-bound Bayview not even slowing down at the stop sign that they should have observed. In the second case, a driver, who was stopped at a red light, made a turn in front of me as I was entering the intersection. In the second case I (politely) honked my car horn. When we got to the next intersection, where I pulled along the right hand side of the other car (they were turning left and I was turning right) the driver looked over at me and gave me a dirty look and said something (did not look like they were apologizing).

Now, what really pisses me off about this particular driving "faux paus" (besides the fact that it can lead to a serious accident) is that it shows a complete lack of regard for the other driver (in this case me). How fucking inconsiderate can these people be that they feel entitled to pull this stunt?
 
Many people seem to think that they are obliged to turn right on a red light, as opposed to having the right to turn right on a red.
Looks like you encountered two of them this morning.
 
69 Shooter....I agree with you, but be careful.

If you T-Bone them, obviously they're in the wrong and they cut in front of you. If you rear-end them, I think you would be charged for careless driving.

But this typical Toronto drivers....don't stop before turning into traffic...force the other guy to slow down; even if there is no one behind you, they can't delay their turn by 10 seconds. Too much of an inconvenience to them

Still trying to figure out how to "read-end" someone...

Being an assman, it sounds like it might be fun with the right woman!

Yes, but less annoying and funnier than the CG post pointing out the original typo.

I was just having fun with you 69shooter... I thought that was quite evident with the smileys and I even managed an additional sexual reference "crack" about the faux pas at the same time... :D

If people get annoyed by that, well shit... sorry about their luck. Life is too short to be taking it so seriously all the time. Loosen up a bit, relax and have some fun. You may even enjoy yourself a little. LOL!

I think he was just breaking your balls... talk about needing to relax!

Exactly right... I was just busting his balls. I wasn't bothered at all by CG's clever use of my original mistake. I've done the same to others. I'll keep a careful eye of his future posts just in case he affords me (or someone else) the same opportunity. :D
