GIN51E wrote on Sun, 22 September 2002 10:55 | ok well i pulled up at the traffic lights in the centre lane, 89 falcon (6 cylinder of some sort i'm guessing ) pulled up next to me in the left lane, 150m down the road is the left turn off i have to make.
so i wait for the lights to go green so i can floor it off the lights and get in front of him so i can make my left turn but when the lights go green he floors it as well and we are going along side by side the whole way then i thought i wouldback off and tuck in behind him but there was a V8 Commo Ute behind him going for it as well, all i wanted was to turn left not have a drag anyway didn't bother me mutch as i'm happy with the celica's result in staying side by side the whole way so just went down the road a bit further and turned around to then come up at the lights next to a p plater in a festiva, thinking "what the hell" i gave it a little rev then so did he lights green pedal to the floor and i was about 5 car lengths in front of him by the time i had to change into 2nd, but then thought about it and decided beating a festiva is nothing to be proud of

Shit man, that sort of crap pisses me off. Some yobbo goes off, pulls infront/cuts of you just to turn. Just take off slow and get behind the couple of cars in the left lane. Is it really that hard to think in a different direction? It saves lots of hassle, and you know you arn't pissing anyone off.

In that case, noone likes a smartarse.
He sensed your intent, and decided you can do what everyone else can do, and go slow and wait your turn to get over. Didn't exactly sound like peak hour traffic you were in.
I would have done exactly the same thing as the falcon did, while also thinking 'if he planned better, he would be in this lane to begin with instead of being a smartarse and trying to cut infront of me'.
I still respect you man, but, sorry, this stuff annoys me to no end.
