Okay, another thing that bothered me. In spite of my alarm, I was in a pretty jovial mood today.
As I leave from work, I go down my usual route. But there was this one asshole in an old, black, beat down Ford truck that I know for a fact runs fine.
He's ahead of me at the stop sign. This moron wasted 5 minutes of my time by staying put at the stop sign, despite there being ample opportunities where he could have proceeded from the intersection.
I honked once, nothing. I honked again, nothing. After 3 straight minutes of me just leaning on my horn and him not budging, I said, "**** it," and turned around and went home by a different route.
And just so we're clear, this guy's truck works fine, and for some reason in my town, so many people think a 2 way stop is a 4 way stop, and you'd be shocked by how many people are stopped at a stop sign, thinking they're at a red light.
