There’s a traffic light at which there are two lanes from which drivers may go straight. Lane 1 only allows traffic to proceed straight ahead. Vehicles in Lane 2 may either go straight or turn right.

Bob is stopped at a red light in Lane 2 waiting to go straight. There are two vehicles behind Bob waiting to turn right. Lane 1 is empty. Bob is…

  • Doing absolutely nothing wrong. He’s free to use either lane to go straight.
  • Being kind of rude by making the people behind him wait to turn right. Even though he’s legally allowed to go straight from that lane, the polite thing would have been to use Lane 1 so the vehicles in Lane 2 can make a right turn on red.
