This happened no less than 10 minutes ago.
The road that leads to my house intersects with a fairly major road about a half mile before I get to my house. The road is 4 lanes coming up to the intersection, but after the intersection narrows almost immediately to 2 lanes. Coming south, the right hand lane is used as a turning lane to enter an intersection, and ends after that, so you have to merge into the left lane.

Light is green, so I go through, staying in the left lane. Dumbass™ rockets through the intersection in the right lane going a good 55mph (this is a 40 zone). A few seconds too late after going through the intersection, he finally realizes "Oh shit, I think this lane is going to end", and runs off the road, stirring up a dust cloud, and then swerves in front of me, nearly clipping the front of my car.
Dumbass™ of course then speeds off into the wild blue yonder.
Learn to drive people! (Being able to use the "go faster" pedal and the steering wheel does not constitute as "driving").
