Fck them.
And Fck those that can’t drive through a parking lot correctly. Choosing to cut across and through cars so they don’t have to drive through lanes like a normal person

Depends on the intersection.

I hate the guys who go around the speed bumps in F250s at home depot and cut through the lot at speed.

0/10, especially when you can't take a right on a red light

Depends, cutting through a gas station is no big deal. Speeding through a grocery store = trashy

Insecurity rating of people that keep making “is this trashy” threads.





10/10

If the intersection is designed poorly enough that I'll sit for more than a couple of cycles of the traffic light, yeah I'll look for another way through.

Ain't nobody got time to wait for you to have a quarter mile of open road to pull out. Speed up or get cut around.

I cut through the Burger King parking lot every time, so I don’t have to wait for the green turning light, on Carrollton and Claiborne.

That's probably accurate as a baseline.


Caveats though, if the intersection is blocked because of asshats that pull out and get stuck when the light turns red, then we're down to 0/10.

If it's a Wal-Mart parking lot, up to 10/10.

If the business is not open, 2/10.

A guy I know was cutting through a convenience store/gas station. They had removed the pumps and canopy over them,but left the pump island and big chunk of concrete in front of the island. He sailed through looking over his shoulder for the Man. Looked up and nailed the concrete. Totaled his F250.

No problem at all with it if done safely....less traffic backed up at the light waiting.
