I saw a tricky move at the dealership by a Max driver

Only in PA....instead of waiting for a left-turn arrow make a u-turn instead and come back...blast through a red turn arrow by making the move down the center lane....instead of alternate merging just force one's way in over a solid line....

The trickiest Nissan dealership move I've seen is this one--people arrive at the dealer 30 min. before they open so they can be FIFO, and they line up outside the entrance. This dude parks his car diagonally completely blocking the service entrance instead of parking in a space. So the dealer has to get his car the **** out of the way so they can get other vehicles into the bay area, and he ends up being the first person served. Very tricky, but don't try that in NY, right fellas? Remember, in PA, people don't even honk their horns when someone forgets to go at a green light and the light turns red again. It's a Ben Franklin thing.

If i was the service writer and some fuktard did that crap to me I would deliberately make him wait longer than everyone else before him and some after.

if someone did that in front of my shop, I'd politely have them towed away for interfering with my business operations and trespassing/loitering on private property.

we take the red arrow as if it were a green, but keep a lookout for the 5-0 before proceeding. That tricky maneuver takes up too much extra gas and mileage
