My car broke down in a turn lane in the middle of a busy street in July. So many people pulled up behind me and honked and yelled even though my emergency flashers were on and the hood was up! I was afraid to get out so I rolled the window down and kept waving them around.
Happens around here all the time. Tourists from the cities think every intersection has two lanes going straight through and, apparently, can’t see the Right Turn Only signs and painted markings. Then they pile up behind the row of parked cars ahead and expect those of us who can read to let them cut back in. Of course, some of them do it intentionally to try to pass a few of us on the right. Probably the same ones, when they are in the correct lane, who drive into the intersection as or after the light changes to yellow/red and then sit there blocking the intersection since traffic is not moving up ahead. Is a few cars lengths really going to matter in your day?
So I open the car door, get in and can’t find the steering wheel. Then I realize I’m in the back seat. I look around to see if anyone is watching, as I climb back out. Getting old is so much fun.
This is hilarious because I was leaving a parking garage tonight and the guy behind me started yelling out the window to hurry up, get out of the way, etc. And then he started honking at me… so obviously I slowed down as much as I could without hitting the brakes.
…Then he turned the same direction as me, so obviously I was worried about cops and went exactly the speed limit.

Saw this IRL on a street that one “lane” was backed up.
