    Do I need to draw this out for you or what?

    On the road im on there is a left turning lane, a lane to go straight and a right turning lane. You following me? Now on the opposite side its the same exact thing.. i am in the right turning lane trying to turn right, on the opposite side a pickup is in the left turning lane trying to turn left..getting me so far, so we both want to go on the same road, ok. Now, the light turns green for my side as it does for their side..now you’re telling me i have to yield on a green light to make my right turn and not the guy in the oncoming lanes, hes the one crossing lanes he needs to yield but according to you no i have to yield That i Wrong??? Smh why are you doing this man why?? Did you at least understand now? If there was people going straight he would have to yield for them wait till they pass than make his left turn, we have the right of way unless hes got the green arrow which he did not have...do you understand now is your brain getting it

    Btw if you yield to people when you have the green light well you keep on doing that you obviously know a lot about traffic rights
    You just keep on yielding to people when you have the green light, thats gonna work out real good for ya

    Sorry, but Day Cab Daddy is 100% right on this one, not sure what you are thinking about.
    In a situation like that, IF I am stopped, I will sometimes motion them on, when there is only one of them and it looks like they will not take all day, just so hey don't have to wait on me, but if moving , nope it is my road.

    Other that the motion them on that is the proper way to do it IF you need their space.

    You are not entitled to the road just because you are in a truck neither of you.
    The PROPER way to make a right turn is from the right lane to the right lane.

    If you need more room fine but that doesn't mean you own that other lane.
    He had a green light also.

    Hey you made it and that's all that matters here but you have to share some of the blame.IMO
    The right lane was yours the left lane was his.

    Coupe of weeks ago a guy with a pickup was passing me in New York on 81 with a open tailgate and to rifle hardcases where close to falling out. I sped up and pointed at his tailgate and he gave me the NY salute, such an @$$hole. So I says to me if they fall out I gets a couple free long guns or worse he will have flat ones.

    I had a guy in front of me lose a rifle hard case, I stopped but it was empty. lol
    He had pulled over anyway, I just took it up to him, so he wouldn't have to walk so far. lol
