    THIS! Of course the state made it some kind of stupid rule (at least in Evergreen), that if there is a fatal accident at an intersection (just ONE!), they put in a red arrow. Out of 8 lights, 3 have a red turn arrow after one hapless person was killed at each. It's only a matter of time, judging by how dumb people seem to be getting...
    I'm with the OP. FUCK red turn arrows, fuck them in their stupid asses. That's why on my way home I always turn a 1/4 mi before my actual turn, just to avoid a red arrow.

So instead of combining all the traffic that actually can't proceed past a red light (straight and left turning), I always get stuck behind the 1 in 20 drivers actually trying to go straight, when I could have made a right on red 2 minutes before. It's been bugging me in my neighborhood for at least a year now, but I didn't think I could pull off a dedicated rant about it.
    Oh FFS, this drives me crazy too! Quebec and Colfax... worst one ever! I'm always getting stuck when I wish to turn right onto Colfax.

    WINNING! Originally I'd rate your rant a 9.5/10, but for this, it's a straight 10!

    This is why you're the man! Seriously, this is sig worthy right here! Mind if I...?
