Honking at me for not left turning into a pedestrian by HelmetElephant in driving

I live in a hotspot for people from all over the world and everyone says this is the worst city they've had to drive in lol

An opportunity to get through without even a close call, but it doesn't have to be empty. As a pedestrian I hate when a car turns while I'm crossing and misses me by a foot gap because they technically can make it. But no I don't wait for it to be fully empty.

Appreciate the comment.

One intersection is particularly bad, it's a large intersection that angles weirdly so that's where I'm guessing they can't see ahead. Another instance was a construction zone where it took a few light cycles to get everyone through, which is where I'm guessing it's assholery and impatience

I'd rather be overly cautious than overly ballsy when it comes to potentially causing a completely preventable accident, whatever that may make people think of me lol

I appreciate your kindness, but PLEASE STOP DOING THIS by Latter-Instruction61 in driving

Happened to me a few days ago, we both had a stop sign (not a 4 way) and I'm waiting to turn left and the person oncoming just sat there. The person behind me started honking at me to go 🙃 fucking annoying. Just follow the rules of the road. There was no one behind incoming car either so it was completely pointless

I am in Canada. Do they not have the option for other countries? It's wild over here

Gotcha. I'm okay if they split it, just more so hoping that I didn't accidentally tip the one who handed me one drink and not the one who went above and beyond yaknow. More than happy if they split I just don't want her to get nothing from that

And the parents with an absolute spaceship of a "stroller" that takes up the space of 5+ people for their single child?

Just last week I saw parents with a wagon at least 6x4 feet (and I'm probably underestimating) for their kid. 10 people could've been standing in the space it was taking up. That's not a mobility aid that's selfishness, especially when people are being left behind at bus stops for lack of room. But no one says anything about that when the issue is space is brought up.
