People typically "drive too slow" at red lights.

maybe you were driving too slow
maybe you were driving too slow
is it possible she was driving slow for a while before pulling up to the red light and this dude didn't want to be stuck in traffic behind her, so he cut her off?`
thank you come again

yes, and people pulling up after someone at a red light are often behind them in traffic, and in a construction laden area, it is usually hard to pass, especially in traffic...not to metion she was obviously the first person in line at the red light.....

....I'm driving home from work today and I'm waiting at this stop light on this 2 lane road. So this a-hole in a last gen Camaro vert (who was behind me for awhile) pulls up to the right of me....

The guy was proceeding through the two-lane (one lane in each direction) behind her. At the red light, he pulled to the right, perhaps on a soft shoulder or where they are doing construction, or where the curb turns out to let people make right turns without having to wait for traffic proceeding straight forward. Instead of making a right turn, he went straight.
Wicked can correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the mental picture I'm drawing.
Oh yeah, and around here, if you hit the gas RIGHT when the light turns green, it'll only be a matter of time until you're dead or close to dead. Truckers (among others) do not understand the concept of the yellow light, much less the red one, around here.

Sorry I mis quoted myself but when I said he was behind me I meant that he was going the same way as I was for a long time - almost since I pulled out of my parking lot. I was still reeling when I wrote my first post.

I don't see a discrepancy. It makes perfect sense, actually (but then again, I drive down a very similar road every day, so...).

Thank you captain obvious.......now, imagine her driving slow, and the guy behind her getting pissed and wanting to get around her....hence, the agressive move at the light.....
now, I am not saying that is what she did, but it is totally plausable......I am simply responding to the dumb comment about everyone driving slow up to a read light....
maybe she was driving slow for a few miles....hell, I hate when people do that and I kind of applaud the guy for being agressive and getting around her.....not that it was a smart move, but who knows, I might have done the same thing, and even more likely that I have...
Drive like you stole it.
