I'm turning left on a two-lane street, waiting for incoming traffic to clear, and some jackass pulls into the right-turn cutout to pass me. It's both rude and dangerous.

What. So this "jackass" and all the people in the right lane should pull up behind you and wait for you to turn left? That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. That's partially why there are two lanes, so traffic can continue to flow instead of waiting for you.

Edit:

Hold up. When you say "two lane street" do you mean one lane on each side? Because that changes everything. Whenever people I talk to refer to a two lane street they mean two lane in your direction.

Yes, one lane in each direction.
