Angry guy tried to set me up for an auto accident

I worked this morning and the way home, came up to a stop at the end of Lawn Ave. I was headed in the direction of the yellow arrow and when I was stopped at the stop sign, had my left turn signal on in the Suburban.

Dude in a white import was coming from my left and put on his right turn signal ( white arrow). He flashed his light and waved me out.

Something just didn't feel right and I stayed at the stop sign. The MFer swung into what would have been my lane if I pulled out and went straight.

If he's going to pull that shit, he better pick lighter vehicles to play with

I'm cool with coming up there and giving him a good ol' fashioned beat down. Some people just need it.

You'd be busy for a while as it seems the city is expanding out to the country. Although it's the same geographical area I grew up in, it's changed significantly and not for the better.

Well, go ahead and retire, and move on down here to Ga. Plus, your truck won't rust out from the salt.

EHHHH, got THAT right, but add another hundred miles for good measure....

Tell you watt though, in the last 22 years, the guys bitching about the traffic when I moved here, I just laughed at....being me from Wash DC region.....but watt with all the damn yankee/refugees from the lands of ice and snow, the population has skyrocketed here, and the roads are being rebuilt yet again at our shopping highway and I295 just 2 miles from me.....

best part of any trip is the mile through my burb here to the shopping dodgem drag A way......

do a Google on 32073 Orange Park Florida, pull up I 295 and Blanding Blvd......and you see how bad this Kluster EFF is.....

Exactly why I tell my 15 yr old, Abbey, to never trust other drivers.

Expect stupidity and you'll seldom be disappointed.

Glad you're alright man.

If I wanted a new truck, all I would have to do is ride down one of the main roads here in town with my right turn signal on. Guaranteed that someone would pull out in front of me. For a podunk town, we have more traffic collisions than anywhere I've ever seen. Usually someone getting rear ended.

PA is a no fault insurance state. It is yet another good intention gone bad by the government.

Demand your state and local officials change that law.

When the nice lady in the Subaru pulled out in front of the previous Suburban, the PA State Trooper noted she was at fault so it did NOT go against my insurance.

Yet the states that have "No Fault" spread the blame out to all those insured ( or uninsured like FL).

No fault should really be "Everyone pays for the idiots" so you get more idiots.
