"This person is out in the middle of the road blocking one lane, but I'm going to keep driving like they're not an idiot who will pull out in front of me." is a bold strategy.

I was taught defensive driving
This clown was taught fuckin oblivious driving
The right of way doesn't matter if you're dead.
I can't tell you how many accidents I've been to where the person who was "right" was horrifically injured.
- Not at an appropriate angle to turn quickly. You'd have to swivel your head 220⁰ or more to physically check both oncomings. Star for shit angle to attempt a turn. 2. Hammers down while raining so slips and then hesitates - sign of a fucking genius 2.5 Even with HD they weren't going to get enough speed after almost a full U turn (based on angle) for that oncoming black car so star there because everyone would have had to slow down for them to get in and then speed up. Incompetence. 3. there's a No Left Turn so star for illegal maneuver 4. They're on an on-ramp of some kind actively holding up traffic rather than being to the left to allow normal merging. Star for being a blockage.
Of course it's also an SUV, I'm only surprised it's not a truck. It's always fucking trucks. 4 out of 5 stars
It wouldn't surprise me if dipstick was following Google Maps blindly. It suggests stupid crap to me all the time, like doing a random U-turn in the middle of a road where everyone's going 55mph, or making illegal turns. It would be nice if they actually paid attention to at least the literal signs, though.
Ah, the New England Left Turn
I hope you were able to get the cops out there so they got hit with all sorts of violations
That is infuriating!
Solid YELLOW lines aren't illegal where I'm from. Insurance will use it to prove you're at fault, but it's not illegal.
Solid white are illegal here though.
Same with the off ramp yellow speed limit signs, not law. Just heavy recommendation.
Basically all yellow stuff here is highly recommended but now mandatory. Even bananas
