1+. Stop, foot down, and point "you go." People in Boston usually do.
These can be dicey. I have at least one left on my commute where I too have 2 lanes of traffic comming the other direction and someone in the middle stops for me oblivious to the fact that I'm gong to have to stop right in front of them to make sure the second lane is clear.
I appreciate the courtesy, but these situations definetly get my "this-could-be-bad" sense tingling.
