What is she talking about?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46822points) July 26th, 2018

On FB someone on my friend’s list posted “STOP PULLING INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE DAMN INTERSECTION WHEN THE LIGHT IS YELLOW!”

For the life of me I can not figure out what she is talking about. When the light is green and I’m wanting to turn left, but there is oncoming traffic, I sit in the intersection and wait for it to clear. Sometimes it’s the yellow light that clears it, and when everyone is stopped I proceed with my turn.
Other people are in agreement with her, talking about the shitty things they do to those kind of drivers…and I don’t know what they are talking about.
Then she posted these diagrams that made it clear as mud.
All I can say is that the intersections in those diagrams are insane. I only have to deal with normal + intersections and roundabouts.
Can you ‘splain this to me please?
