One of the things that has ticked me off about living in this otherwise-very-nice state is how messed up they are about two-way stops.
Back when I was a youngster in Colorado, we learned that if you are driving toward a stop sign but across the street from you at the other stop sign is a driver sitting there waiting to turn left, you would let him/her go first because that is the right thing to do law and you are not some ‘I gotta go first’ jerk. It made me crazy because here in Nebraska that man/lady would try to wave me through with an irritated look and I would yell inside my car, “GO! You were there first!” I have thought several times about writing a grumpy letter to the editor about it.
Well, someone else wrote a letter. To tell me that – gulp – I am wrong. (Oh, how it pains me to say those words.)
It turns out that ‘left goes last’ is the law in this state! That is insane!!! Who do I write to to change this craziness?
