Red Means…Go?!?

When will the drivers around here realize that the “new” left turn arrow (it’s been up for 6 months) near the mall is different from the old one? Every single time I’m at the head of the line and there’s a red arrow I get honked and screamed at when there’s a gap in the oncoming traffic and I don’t turn. Gee, I don’t turn because it’s an effing red light, morons! Seriously, the cops could make a fortune sitting on the corner of that intersection, because when I’m not at the front of the line I always see people running the light. They even hung a sign right next to the light saying “wait for green arrow” or something to that effect.

I didn’t used to be so concerned about other drivers’ bad habits, but now that I have a kid in my car…well, let’s just say that if anyone ever hurt Carrie because they were driving recklessly and/or breaking a law, I would most likely be going to jail for murder.

Uh. OK. Rant over. Tune in tomorrow to find out whether I go at midnight tonight to pick up my copy of HP6 or if I do the sane, responsible adult thing and wait until Carrie goes down for her morning nap…
