By my house there is a stoplight and four lanes of traffic going each way, but with no turn lanes. The right lane ends after going through the light, so it is always best to already be in the left lane. Of course, if someone is in the left lane with their turn signal on, just go to the right lane and the lane ending is a non issue.

Nothing worse than pulling up behind a car in the left lane thinking everything is cool, then after the light turns green they put on their signal and your stuck.
Along the same lines, I hate when someone whips over to the right lane of a four lane because they can't stand being second in line at the light, thereby preventing me from making a right on red. Or the two lane intersection on my way to work where it's plenty wide enough to allow people behind you room to make a right but no one ever does.
That maneuver pisses me off too. And, it happens almost daily.

This thread is making me hate humanity (and yes, that includes all you dick-move people)

I get annoyed at those who dont pull forward so that we can get two people taking lefts
This is utterly necessary because of the number of places where there are no left turn arrows. If we didnt do this it could 30 minutes to turn left at some lights on my commute home

Damn small municipalities that dont put in left turn arrows on busy streets
