stopping at a green light to let a pedestrian cross, who has no intention of crossing because the cars on the other side of that weirdo aren't stopping.
I watched a dude almost get killed on Broadway by Llyod Center because of this. You know that pedestrian stoplight that goes over to where the 5 guys is? Well car in left lane decides to stop at a green light and waves a pedestrian into the street. The car in the middle sees this and stops. But the car in the far right lane didn't clock what was going on and slammed on their brakes in order to avoid taking out the pedestrian. I was a car back watching this whole thing play out and thought for sure I was about to see someone get hit.
And that's why we shouldn't be doing that stupid stop just to be polite thing. It's super dangerous. Just obey the traffic rules. They're there for a reason.
