Champaign's Finest

So I'm driving down State St. today, which is a one way street. There's a car a little ways ahead of me that's in the right lane, and it stops, puts on its turn signal, and promptly turns left. Now, this is a signature move by a Champaign driver. The difference today though is that this Einstein was in front of a cop. So what does the cop do? Turns right..........

And we wonder why the drivers around here seem insane!

DON'T get LD started on this one. He's took it upon himself to "educate" some of Champaign's youthful drivers about how to drive, since, as you pointed out the police aren't really helping out with this one. Last night he taught two high school kids what it means when you see that sign on Springfield that the lanes will be merging down from two lanes to one lane. Seeing as I was in the passenger seat, I was not to happy to be a part of this lesson, but I suppose they did learn that one should be in the left lane not the right lane there. They may have also learned a few choice words. (on second thought - they already seemed to know those words - I heard them!)
