Passed on the Right

I guess a lot of idiot drivers come out when the sun goes down in Savannah.

I was riding home from work today and stopped in the middle of the lane (since the bike lane ends right before the intersection) right before a small intersection right next to the big intersection with a light since the sign said not to block the intersection (said intersection). As the left hand turn was changing so I could go straight across the intersection, this idiot (!!!) in a black pickup started to come up on my right. I thought "eh, he's turning into the small intersection" but then I realized he was passing me on the right within a foot of my right elbow. I'm not usually one to share but this pissed me off.

I also had a different vehicle do the same thing on my left side when they swerved around me at a later light after I had taken the lane when the bike lane ended again.

And had my second person yell at me. "Get out of my way....Army man" as I was passing an intersection

Sorry, just wanted to rant and I realize this isn't all necessarily coherent.
