Four lanes, two cars left turning east and west, im herading west, southbound traffic nonexistant, northbound slowing to a crawl, when cop dodges into right lane and guns it in the yellow.
TELL ME i was completely in the wrong. Shoulda waited for green, but COME ON.
I would take the "shut the **** up" approach during any kind of situation like that - the cop is obviously ready to distort the facts to cover his own ass, so whatever level of fault you were at is basically irrelevant.
