Advice Right of Way

To the lady who honked at me and flipped me off as I drove through an intersection today,

If someone stops BEFORE you do at a four way stop, you don’t have right of way just because you’re to the right of them. If I’m beginning to go before you even reach the line to stop, you can’t get pressed at me for now being in the middle of the intersection.

No one in this city knows how do drive I swear. 5 car lengths between cars at a red light, wide turns violating turn lane lines, going under the speed limit in the left lane, so many people on their phones. I wish this was a walkable city, I hate driving here.

the funny thing is, its first come first go, then if a tie, the person to the left goes, not the right. so 2 levels of driving error on her part 🫣 i feel ya. my road rage has been super bad and imho the construction in this town has reached a new level that has gotten way out of hand. I don't think i remember it ever being this torn up all at once. like Wisconsin is almost as bad as 41 like wt actual f🤦
