I was surprised about how many people didn't       get out of the way.              OTOH, several years ago I was in Downtown Louisville at a red light. I was       the only car in the far left lane on a one-way street... I am not sure if       all the other lanes had cars or not. The cross-street was also one-way in       the direction where no left turn for me would be allowed.              For whatever reason, an ambulance driver rolled up behind me and expected       me to run the light and enter the BLIND intersection. I guess he was       hoping for a few more customers. I waited for the light to change before       moving.                      * SLMR 2.1a * Overdrawn? No way!
