Saw a guy who outpricked me on the road :D

[StageLeft]

Out pricked in this way: When the light goes green and it's my turn I go. If people are about to take a left I sometimes barge out a bit and I will do my best to lay on the horn. If they are actually trapping us because their line of traffic stopped they'll get even more horn action. Well the other night the light went green and the traffic kept going left trying to squeeze in. A guy in a merc in front of me basically floored it. I thought he was gonna t-bone this woman because she had to slam her brakes in the middle of the intersection and gave him the finger, but really she shouldn't have been there in the first place.

I thought this might make some of you smile to read it.

Eh, kinda a confusing story.

Sounds like an intersection near where I live. It gets blocked by idiots at least 1/2 the time I go thru it. :|

 

[thereds]

You're a prick.

 

[blackdogdeek]

[Zim Hosein]

Careful, you screw up that Nissan i'm gonna have to kick your ass. =)

 

[Electric Amish]

You're both pricks..

Be patient, god dammit!!

 

[mugs]

I hate it when people do that (turn left across my lane when I hate the right of way)

 

[Confused]

Huh?

Me is confused


Confused

 

[CaseTragedy]

understood it. and you're right--you are a prick & he did outprick you.

 

[bunker]

Translation:

People (heading east/west) turn left after light has turned red.

Skoorb (heading north/south) likes to scare them when his light turns green by honking or driving out a bit at them.

Other guy says screw it and floors it into intersection cutting off a woman running red to make left turn.

Apparently, Skoorb hates people who turn left.
edit: oh, and he mentioned pricking and boning in his post.

 

[Tom]

i think he means oncoming traffic that is turning left in fornt of hime because they had a left turn light and there are always somebody who tries to cheat and get in after their left turn green light has changed, even when the lane they are turning in is backed up so there's no where to go and they are blocking all the traffic.

Yaye! It was a bit confusing because I Just kept typing instead of pausing and actually rereading to determine if what I wrote made sense.

My husband does that. A lot. Scares the crap out of me every time. I'll roll a little and maybe honk the horn, but he floors it. They give him the deer-in-the-headlights look.

You can make a left turn onto a street when you're at a red light? I know you can do that if the street your turning onto is a one way... but ... am I missing something?

Yeah, but aren't all of Skoorb's stories confusing?!

 

[CraigRT]

hahah...
ok ricer

 

[yowolabi]

If i'm in the intersection and am about to turn, you could lay on your horn all day and I wouldn't give a damn. I'd just give you a "what crazy house did you escape from" look or a big smile, and calmly finish my turn. What's the point? I'm not going to back up, I'm already going forward as fast as I can, and you're not going to drive into the side of my car.

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought you meant you had a dick-measuring contest with some guy and you lost.
