In San Francisco, we have a lot of intersections without left-hand turn traffic signals. So you have to wait for the regular green light, and then yield to oncoming traffic before turning left at an intersection.

But some of the streets are 1 lane and smaller, so the cars behind you that want to go straight can't move around you unless you move to the middle of the intersection.

Boggles my mind why people don't move forward closer to the intersection. This lets 2 big things happen. It lets the car behind you that also wants to turn left to also go with you as the light turns yellow because both of you will be in the intersection. It lets the car behind you go straight because he can maneuver around you.

And then I honk at the car in front of me that wants to turn left while I am obviously creeping up to go around him and would be able to go if he moves a foot forward. And he flicks me off for no reason. My mind is boggled.
