These people would be very offended, if they could read.

Sorry, it's too hard to make that tight of a turn when one of my hands is clutching my fourth nip of the morning

The double right turn onto the highways on Francis St at Providence Place is a constant near accident as people can't comprehend this

Next we need a guide for how to turn to enter a busy road when there is a center lane available

Yeah, with all the multi-lane turns in RI, you're gonna need a better diagram. The goal is to stay in the lane you started from. I don't know how many times I've pulled out of the Chapel View plaza and people think they're in the right to turn into me in the middle lane as both lanes turn left.

Let's start with actually stopping at stop signs.

Turning right on to Pontiac ave is a nightmare during the commute home from Socanosset.. thats the only place ill turn right into the left lane because the right lane is always completely full and I refuse to wait for another light cycle lol.

Good luck with that. Acting as if it isn't Mad Max levels of fuck-you out here.

First things first: learn how to accelerate to highway speed before merging into traffic. Or, at least, don’t stop at the end of the entrance ramp.

Cool.

Please explain this intersection for the commuters into Cambridge. They come in from the ramp at the bottom right.

The left turn can be impossible to make depending on what car you drive and how far forward the guy in the next lane is.

Seeing as though they like to put a business at every intersection in RI I'm not getting in the inner lane just to hop over real quick...

Oh hell. I see this happen multiple times a day. Drives me insane.

This diagram is missing the red car turning left into the blue cars correct left lane

Cool now do one for when turning in a median space where what your actually supposed to do is go to the far end not turn as soon as you get to the break. Idk how to say this. Does anyone know what i mean?

🤣 I’ve only ever had an issue with that in RI thanks for the giggle.

What if you have to take a left and immediately take a right on the next lane? can I take a left and stop if no one gives me way until I can shift lanes?… I ain’t driving 5miles to go all the way and come back just so I don’t “inconvenience” the driver behind me.

If yall could read the roads would be safer 🤷🏾‍♂️😂

appslap t1_jaxmi6l wrote

I hit a light all the time that starts as 1 lane, then you turn left into 2 lanes, and I go wide right. It feels wrong but since im the first car in a single lane that’s ok 🤷🏻‍♂️

*Does not apply from between the Bucket all the way down to Bald Hill Rd.

Isn't that left hand turn supposed to cut across the oncoming lane and across the double yellow before eventually ending up in the right hand lane?

This doesn’t apply to people in lifted F-150 pickups. They need to get home as fast as possible to kiss their father on the lips.

There’s a two-lane left turn onto Smithfield Ave from Silver Spring St in Providence (right next to where the Cellos is) I take at night with some regularity. I’ve stopped using that far left lane to make the turn because so many people have cut me off, or come close to hitting me from them failing to maintain their lane and drifting from the right lane into the left.

Cherry on top is that I’ve had more than 1 person get pissy after honking my horn to prevent from getting hit by them over there. People honking back at me as if I was supposed to read their minds that they were planning on nearly driving into me or cutting me off.

When people do this I end up acting like a total asshole by flashing my high beams and honking. It’s scary and infuriating being stuck behind someone who’s afraid to go faster than 35mph when you need to join the other traffic going 55.
