Weird to see this. Two days ago I was sideswiped by a truck on ARB and it was the first time I was ever in an accident while moving. Heading inbound approaching the Washington Blvd intersection, and as it widened into three lanes at the green signal the truck behind me tried to go around me to speed through the intersection. Except there wasn't enough room and to avoid rear-ending the car in the left turn lane, he had to come back to the right and bang the side of my car, then speed off down ARB towards the zoo.

The damage sucks but what really shocked me is the stupidity of the maneuver. Like, in another hundred feet you will have two lanes to use to get around me if it's that important. You couldn't wait that three more seconds?
