I experienced that today at a left turn signal which is brutal to wait
for. It's 2 minutes between rotations. I'm about 8th in line, and I
know I'm not getting through on 1 cycle. So 4 cars go through, and I'm
now 4th in line.... 2 more minutes...

Turns green, the first 2 cars go better than sloth speed, the 3rd looks
down, looking for something on her seat, perhaps her brain, I lay on
the horn (no Five one thousand for her, as the light is about a 10-15
second light). She finally figures she should hit the gas, RUNS the
now red light (it was red for quite some time, I couldn't believe she
went), and I stop, muttering f words at her.

Scott, you sure do seem to have more than your share of "experiences" You
have more stories each day than I do in a month. Something in the water
there for all these drivers to seemingly be driving around half asleep?

I drive in "The OC" every day and I don't see that many poor drivers.

Here's a short one from mine.

Stuck behind some sloth at a left-turn light on the way into a grocery
store lot. The sloth takes so much time proceeding through the
intersection that I'm sure he's trying to see the light turn red while
still in it.

He (or maybe she, I don't remember) turns right down an aisle, and so
I go straight and turn down another aisle further down, park, and as
I'm entering the store, I look out and see the other car still putting
around looking for a spot.

Then you don't drive in the "real" OC, just the TV show.
