Alert | Give it up Copa, you are in the wrong and there is no legal way around it! Sinbad isn't whining, he's pointing out a dangerous situation, Leave home 2.5 minutes earlier and wait your turn. And while we are at it---quit turning left onto the I10 from the straight through lane instead of the left turn lane! | | The red head is BACK!! (and still mouthy)

Alert | Posted By Copa Conscious on 10/15/2007 3:01 PM Because it's NOT a dangerous situation. If the driver in the actual turn lane stays in the right lane, per the law, then the guy taking the extra right turn takes the left lane.
No danger there.
Traffic turning right is allowed to select any lane. So maybe those people should just cut it wide and we'll see who gets the ticket. | | Joined: Jul 2005 | |

Alert | Yup! And posting the SITUATION on here will make everyone wise up and it will never happen again, ever.
Thanks Sinbad. You are super.
I just wish someone would have posted this sooner.
Imagine the thousands of lives that could have been saved......... | | | |

Alert | Just wait... Just wait..
A MPD officer will get right on that. They read these boards too... we call them LUKER'S. there's also the traffic hot line that you can call and report people...
Traffic hot line 520-316-6919.
All you have to do is grab your cell phone and take a picture of the illegal turn and call this number. Offer the PD your picture as proof. The offender gets a nice big WARNING in the mail. It goes into the log and then if that person ever is pulled over by the cops for the same thing they were warned about... Judge isn't going to LIKE IT!
as a matter of fact... I think I will call in a complaint now... and if we all do it... they will patrol that turn lane.
How's that for doing something about it. Mr. Copa whom sits on his brains? | | Just doing it one day at a time.

Alert | | Hey Sinbad you will like this. Last Friday I was in the thru lane (had to go to Walgreens) while some moron was in the 2nd right hand turn lane. I of course was blocking him so he couldn't turn, and I sat there for 3 lights,,,,, he was so pissed!!!!! I was laughing my but off, everyone that waited patienlty in line was turning and he was stuck. It made my day. Copa I hope it was you that I inconvenienced. | | Senior Member 406 posts Joined May 2005 | |

Alert | I see this every single day. This morning there was one vehicle in the thru lane clearly trying to turn right on to the 347. Key word being 'trying' as there were too many cars for him to pull out. Behind him pulls up another vehicle. Clearly inconvenienced by the first vehicle still waiting to turn (illegally), vehicle number two drives through the "island" between the turn lane and thru lane and pulls out into traffic.
