 When I took the North Carolina test at 20, I thought the driving part was ridiculous.  I got in the car and the examiner said, "Drive to the intersection, come to a complete stop, activate your right turn signal, wait for traffic to clear, and make a right turn."  Ummm... lady... this is a 
test, right?  Wouldn't it be better if you don't remind me what I'm supposed to do?

 Oh, come on... you've lived here for a while now.. what do you think the answer is?  (IMO it's all of the above, plus a generous helping of self-centered arrogance.  Check out some of my commuting rants!  Yes, once again, people, you are not entitled to be let through if you attempt to make a left turn out of a parking lot in the middle of the block on a 5-lane highway.)
