I agree with Ghengis, trebon1038 and kennesaw. Would that drivers licenses were given only to those who show proficiency in driving. However, an even worse bad drivers' habit is turning left in front of oncoming motorcycles.

I couldn't agree more with trebon1038 (it's a major pet peeve for me too (also living in TN), or disagree more with transalem: it is PRECISELY a bad driving habit, and I'd like to know WHERE it would be "a good way to get hit by oncoming traffic," unless the guy's talking about the Interstate! For heaven's sake!!

Not really a bad driving habit, it really depends on the general driving habits where you live. In some places pulling out into the intersection is the only way to make the turn, in other places this is just a good way to get hit by oncoming traffic when the light changes.

This is one of my biggest pet peeves in Tennessee, they almost never do this...in fact there have been a few times when they crossed that "line" that the people even backed up when the light changed! What idiots! My driver's ed teacher taught me to go into the intersection.

I've known a lot of people who wouldn't do this. To me, it just makes sense to pull out. People know what your intentions are, and you will be able to quickly execute your turn.

Essential in city driving or you'll never get through the intersection. Sometimes it's just inexperience.

I don't know why some people are afraid to pull into an intersection before making a left turn. Unless if there are other cars coming from the side, it's perfectly legal to do this; in fact, you have to in order to prevent a logjam in the back. Seems to me that most people have trouble with the left turn thing. You've got to look in multiple directions but it's not that bad. In this situation, you've got to move quick or you and the rest of the people in the back loose their chance to go. Don't be afraid, no one's going to hit you.
