Four land highway, you are in the left lane, making a RH turn.
The guy behind you in that lane stays in the land until he is right on your bumper, THEN swings out to the RH lane, leaving the car behind HIM coming at you full speed, no idea you are stopped there.

Three Things
- People who slowly cross the street at an angle in front of you after you let them go.
- Women who wait until their order has been rung-up then fumble through their purse for money and even worse, then search the bottom for small change.
- People who, believing themselves to be the only person left on earth, leave their shopping carts where they were unloaded instead of returning them to a provided collection point.

Women who wait until their order has been rung up then fumble through their purse for their debit card and even worse, scan the card upside down, have to ask the checker for help, then cannot remember their Pin. When they finally do, they ask for cash back, delaying patrons behind them even further.

People in the self checkout in the grocery store who then expect FULL service from the person manning that area. When everyone else has a problem, the worker is with one person literally scanning and bagging all their goods, and we all get screwed waiting for hell to end. Why in Sam Hill are you in the self checkout line if you can't perform the basic duties of self checkout?????????????????????????????
Happened to me twice this week!

So, in New York state it is legal to make a right turn from the left lane?  And here I always though that California had the most screwed up rules and regulations.

Sometimes they just show the lead ponies from behind or because the jocks silks are a pretty pink instead of the main contenders.....
