The lights on that junction are knackered.
If you're coming up on the road from Birkenshaw, you'll sit at the red light for several minutes, then it'll go green for exactly the right length of time to let through 2 cars or half a wagon.

But the worst bit is between the dual carriageway and Tong school junction, and how inconsistent it is from day to day. Some days you'll breeze through, some days it's so solidly jammed it'll take an hour and half to go less than half a mile.

Happens at the lights at Frizinghall too...
Every lowlife in a Merc, BMW, or 12 year old Japanese hatch with a wide exhaust and CD in the windscreen tries it. I've even seen them fly down the outside when the straight on traffic is stationary, cross the stop line and pull in front of the first car.

I let no fucker in. I'm a master at tailgating the car in front whenever someone tries.

I prefer the box-em-in approach, whereby
fuckwit screams up behind you trying to get past. You sit side-by-side matching speed with another car. Observe person behind getting increasingly upset.
Bonus points for making them change lanes if you speed up/slow down only to end up side by side again with the other car.
