    If I really really had to have that inside lane, I would have went straight longer to cut her off/shut her down earlier when she has a better chance of seeing whats up...ya know? start doggin her early when you can see if shes seeing or not...

    Or just use the fricken outside lane like the rest of us...lol

    Normally when I'm staging for a turn like that I will just ride the zipper and take both lanes. Nobody should be in that lane while your doing that anyways. It just makes it clear to them that they have to stay back until my turn is complete.

    OK, what am I missing?

    There are 2 trucks, one in each right turn lane.
    The inside truck cuts off the outside truck during the turn, so the outside truck has to stop.

    Where does a 4 wheelie come in to it?

    Maybe I am seeing a different video, because the picture in the OP looks nothing like the video I watched.

    If it's a double turn lane you need to finish your turn in the lane you start in so clearly the truck is at fault. Now, following the truck and honking your horn is a good way to get a knucle sandwich.
     
    Friday Thanks this.
