Has anyone else driven down a street that is basically two-way, but curbside parking restricts flow temporarily to one-way? That is the subject of tonights rant. After breaking up snowpack on my driveway this afternoon I decided to take the car for a little spin to shake off what I'd gone all lazy about getting with the broom. Anyway, after getting about .002 on the odometer I noticed a vehicle headed north on my street, and using the differential calculus eyeset I was born with determined they were moving. As there were cars on both sides of the street I decided to pull aside and let them pass, as even with a hearty flogging of the accelerator I's only managaed to fishtail back and forth up to a speed of about 15. It took a FULL minute for this idiot to realise I was giving right-of-way, and after that the stupid fucker turned toward me and put on turn-signal, so I had to gun the mustang through an opening with 8 inches on either side of me or we'd have been stuck there all night.

So you were blocking his way. Yet he's the bad driver?

I guess I didn't explain fully. Road ettiquette around here says if one person pulls behind a car, you should come on around, not just sit there and gun it when person A pulls from behind exhibit one.
