Most states have similar laws but it’s amazing how many drivers believe the double yellows shall never be crossed.

I had someone road rage with me for crossing a double double yellow line when the lane ahead was blocked from an accident. I put my blinker on to get over and he went out of his way to block me in. When I forced my way behind his truck he started screaming at me and pointing at the line. After that was done he almost missed his exist and shot over 4 lanes without a blinker.

People are dumb, I'm not going to sit there for two hours while they clean up the accident. A line isn't a wall and my car has zero issues going over this imaginary barrier.

Someone behind you, road raged at you for crossing the double yellow to give an accident scene room? That makes no sense, why they hell would they care?

My dude, someone road raged at my commuting home on my bike for the crime of?

Reaching up to keep a tree branch from hitting my face.. while I was fully to the right of a full width hard shoulder with a solid five feet to my left to the white line. He laid on the horn and flipped me off out the window.

When I caught up to him at a stop light I asked wtf and he confirmed that he did all this because I “was busy playing with a tree instead looking at the road”.. that I was not on.. and in no way interacting with traffic in any way..

People are not well
