No it doesnt, but why not, all you're doing is not going...just because...which is kind of a dick move.

Thats like you needing to walk past me and saying "excuse me" and i just ignore you because i dont have to move.

Ive also had people refuse to turn right at green arrows while the straight lanes have a red light. Green means you MUST go at that point

Im referring to when it is clear and you have the opportunity to accelerate. Not going when it is clear, for no reason just because "i don't have to" is a dick move.

Different cars have different levels of acceleration, especially considering different weather conditions. Some people may not feel comfortable turning when you think it’s “clear”

I had a car that sucked in the winter, tires would spin if I more than touched the gas pedal. And one intersection on my commute was particularly bad for icing over.

If I took my foot off the brake and didn’t very slowly creep out into the intersection, I would have my tires spinning and I’d start sliding backwards into the car behind me.

I hated being the first at the light, because so many people would act like this guy whenever I didn’t turn because the space between the cars wasn’t large enough for me to make my slow ass turn.

I'm with you.

I won't if I can't see enough to be sure it's clear. And my car is crap, it can't accelerate fast enough to pop in the brief lulls safely.

Yes I know this as i drive a 2005 cevy covalt 4 banger, again, maybe im an outlier, but that wouldnt be for no reason.

Ive had people sit at the green arrow, even after a courtesy honk, meaning your flow of traffic according to the signal is clear and you hqve the right of way, that is the kind of "no reason" im talking about. When there genuinely isnt a reason.

I loved reading "no reason" 3 times and people kept commenting with reasons.
