Elkins Park Pennsylvania? (slightly OT) Posted by jgARC03SW [Email] (#1216) [Profile/Gallery] (more from jgARC03SW) on Tue, 17 Mar 2009 07:00:47 In Reply to: Re: Opinion on Damage, Larry in Elkins Park, Tue, 17 Mar 2009 05:18:43 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If PA, then anybody making a left turn is granted complete and total immunity for what happens next. That's why the cop agreed, not your fault. Until they find out you are not a native PA-ian or even worse not a Philly fan (like me).
Sorry for the silliness in a serious matter, but I swear since I moved here from NY (where drivers do other kinds of bad crazy things) PA and DE drivers making left turns are really dangerous. Like I am going straight and they wait and wait and just as I am about to go by they turn left in front of me. The goal is to get all four wheels on the wrong side of the double yellow line while making a "Pennsylvania left turn". Just in case anyone on this board were making a trip to or through here and was unaware of this local, dangerous custom.
One of my better stories was this guy in a minivan coming from my right out of a *parking lot*, holding his cell phone on his right ear with his *left* hand, looking right (i was coming from his left) just turned in front of me. Funny when I honk and raise my fist they look at me like *I* did something wrong....
I hope you get your Saab back to good and working, if not perfect, condition
