Couldn't leave well enough alone...
Pertaining to the last post, the question from comments:
Why did you go in front of him?
Getting out of downtown Portland in the afternoon rush hour is a game of deliberate, sometimes aggressive driving. The person who is the most deliberate gets out first. My goal was to get in front of a long line of cars that were mostly turning across a busy crosswalk, holding up traffic trying to get through.
Dude wasn't turning at the light like everyone else. Keep in mind nobody uses turn signals until the last 10 ft before turning, so I am forced to make some assumptions.
Sure, I could have sheepishly waited for him to go through the intersection. Refer back to my 'deliberate gets out first' statement. Truth is, Dude had the same technique as me.
When someone beats me to the line, I don't care. It just gives me something to work on for next time. Dude decided he had a sharp stick up his ass. Life is too short for that kind of anger. Save that kind of anger for when you catch your neighbor having sex with your dog.
Right or wrong? Not applicable. It's only wrong if someone's life is in danger or you are breaking road rules that affect someone in the immediate vicinity. Then you have to get caught to make it truly 'wrong'.
