The road to no where

So, one of my biggest pet peeves is when people block intersections, not only does it annoy your fellow drivers, but it is what causes grid lock. And then you could just kill me now.

Today I was driving over my favorite little bridge that also happens to be a freeway overpass and one of the only ways onto the freeway near my house, when someone getting off the freeway took the chance of pulling into the intersection with no where to go. Now it looked worse than it really was because he made it through the light before it turned red. But this is not always the case.

Now I realize that if you believe there is enough time between when you pull into the intersection and the light turning red, then you might just go and do it... But remember, if you get stuck in the intersection with no place to go, you are breaking the law. I know breaking traffic laws is the least of most of our worries, but really, do be kind to the rest of us. Is it really going to kill you to sit through one more light? And if it is then you should have called 911 to begin with and not bothered to drive yourself or someone else for medical attention. Honestly...
