Ever deliberately stopped in the middle of the street to make a turn?

Sorry. I don't have bleach and a scouring pad

 

I have the same thoughts about the numerous other people here that say that they have never deliberately stopped in the middle of the street and blocked traffic to make a left-hand turn.

 

Yes. I have been on Lamar Ave in Memphis, TN many times. That's why I thought Lamar Ave might be in Memphis before you ever wrote the word Memphis. I think I have had several shippers/receivers either on Lamar Ave or on a road that connects to Lamar Ave in my career. I have probably been to the Love's on Lamar Ave several times as well.

 

Nobody has answered the last question of the OP except to say that if there is a wreck when I am doing this, DOT will hold me as partly responsible for the wreck.

What does DOT think about this if I do this, and there is no wreck? Would DOT condone it if the way to the right was a restricted road for semi-trucks or had a low bridge and Elm Street were extremely busy?

 

I answered the question. and I think I'm somebody!!

 

You did not answer the last question of the OP.

 

call the local law enforcement explain to them what you do at that intersection and see what they say.

 

As soon as I put my cell phone in my hand to call the police, traffic will clear from both the left and the right, giving me a 2 second window to start driving forward and make the turn, but I won't be able to drive in time because I will have my cell phone in my hand.
