In almost every jurisdiction on earth, you aren’t allowed to block an intersection. OP is doing the right thing by waiting on the other side of the intersection for space to move into. If anything they’re avoiding traffic by not blocking the tangent lane of cars at the next light.
Exactly. I’ve been fucked far too many times by the behavior the guy above you is condoning. People who block intersections are as much a part of the traffic problem as weavers, left lane cruisers, tailgaters, cutters, and all the jerks who deny zipper merging.
Valid. I missed the getting blocked into the intersection part because that feels like a given. Why even say anything at that point? It’s a very mundane thing to say that you follow the rules of the road.
That’s on me for looking for the argument before reading to understand.
