    In the future, if an intersection is too tight to make the turn or traffic won't let you, it's better to pass the intersection and make 3 left turns rather than hit something. Your trainer should have saw there was going to be a problem and told you to make three lefts. Hope you find a new home.

    A long time ago in Connecticut I was forced (by traffic) to pull half way into an intersection at a four-way stop, and set my brakes and just sit there until a cop came and asked me what was going on.
    Told him I needed a right turn, and every time a car left the stop sign from my right, the next one would run right up to the stop blocking my swing. Told him I was begging and pleading these sheeple to let me turn via hand signals and even got out of the truck to "whoa" the next car or two. They did not and would not help me out.
    So the cop got them to comply. I was on a truck route, so the cop was annoyed, but could not punish me in any way.
    Sheeple suck....always remember that....but you do what you have to do to get your job done safely and legally.
