That Was Really Stupid
One night, the wife and I were coming back from dinner. We got off the freeway at our exit, which had a leisurely 180-degree ramp down to a T-intersection at the bottom with a light.
The intersection was empty, but the light was red, so we waited for it to change. The guy behind us, though, was impatient (he’d been chewing out bumper all the way down the ramp).
Instead of waiting, he angrily zipped into the right-turn lane next to us, then proceeded to turn left from the right-turn lane on a red light, aiming to then U-turn onto the freeway entrance next to us.
He didn’t get that far. As soon as he crossed into the intersection, two things happened: first, my rear-view mirror exploded in red and blue as the cop who’d been behind him lit up his lights.
Second, the cop flipped on his loudspeaker as he pulled around us, and we heard, “*crackle* THAT WAS REALLY STUPID.”
We waited politely for the light to change, enjoying the spectacle of him getting pulled over, before driving home laughing. Story credit: Reddit / castillar
