I have the right of way morons!

I usually let this go, but it's happening every day now.

leaving work, I have to turn onto the highway on ramp. It's a 2-lane road, each side having a turning lane at the intersection to get onto the highway. When I get to the ramp, it's on my right. I have right of way on a green light to turn right, but the traffic opposite has 2-green lights also for straight OR to turn left after yielding.

The problem is...THEY AIN'T YIELDING!!!

As soon as that light turns green, every time these past few days, a car turning left will gun it to beat oncoming traffic and turn onto the on ramp...right in front of me! Half the time they're not even looking my way, the other half they're on the phone. I always give into them because I don't want to buy a car right now, but they get a good honking from me!

I have a similar issue on my way home. I turn off the main road, and go to the right, and literally just after I turn off, there is a THREE way stop, where I need to turn left.

3 way means the cars coming OFF the main road have the right of way, but i can't tell you how many times I've almost been hit by morons who try and "beat" me to my turn.

Right of way seems to be becoming an increasingly foreign thing for a lot of people, sadly enough. I absolutely hate the main four-way intersection in the town I work in for that reason. No one knows when it's there turn, so they just... go, whenever they want.

My god, you must live in El Mirage. There's an intersection right off Grand Ave (major street that doubles as a freeway) exactly like that, including the idiots who ignore the stop signs.
