I'm the parent of a grade 9 student with all sorts of extra curricular commitments like band, academic team, etc., so I'm constantly driving in a loop of drop offs and pick ups. Heading northbound out of the high school parking lot towards one of two main arteries into town there is an unavoidable T intersection with a stop sign where you can take a right into town or a left to the burbs. If city council put a traffic light up, everyone would have equal opportunity to go left or right. But it didn't and won't. The left turn lane is staggered 20 feet behind the right turn lane to make it easier for westbound school buses to turn onto the main access road to the school. I get that. The consequence is that you sit there waiting to turn left, but car after car in the right lane pulls ahead, blocks your vision, and makes it impossible to advance. You can make eye contact, use hand gestures, or honk and swear, but none of the righties ever pause to let you have your go. And isn't this just America distilled.
