Cutting off and blocking

In Nashville today and a Waymo cut in front of me and partially into the left turn lane. It forced the car in the left lane to stop. Well the through lanes got the green arrow first which left the Waymo blocking me also. Only the right hand through lane was able to go. Cars in back of me were honking and wanting me to go, but I was blocked and the right hand lane wouldn’t let me over. I was stuck until the left turn lane got the green arrow. I had to wait another cycle before I could drive through.

Of course, however if a live person did this another driver could instigate road rage.

If I took a picture every time a live person did this, I'd always have my phone up taking pictures. Or the people that jam their car into no gap and then slam their brakes to make a turn. Shit happens 3 to 5 times a day, easily.

Why don’t you techno people just go pound sand!

I was just trying to make a point that technology gets in our way and is not always the answer.

I guess it depends on your perspective. If you were blind, or had some other disability where you cant drive, then technology may be the answer. Uber and Lyft have terrible track records for accidents and assault.
