Ignore the date.. my left blinker was on 10 feet before I got to the intersection and I verified it was working about 5 mins later.

Just throwing the warning out there, watch out for this guy! I took the audio out and put a song because I had some choice words for him that wouldn't be appropriate for this forum.

If you know him, please for the safety of us all, tell him to observe stop signs.

I know this intersection and it's not just "this guy" that does this. A lot of people think that if they can tailgate someone to avoid having to stop every 2 blocks then they do. Watch out when driving in Greenwich in general. Also, LOTS of New Yorkers are on our streets and have no idea where the heck they're going; they cause quite a bit of road rage when they cut people off. Be prepared for getting a traffic headache while driving through town.

Yikes. The R8 truly is the new exotic car for the FFC man that can't drive. I've noticed it myself.

Stop signs and red lights are run on a regular basis. It's only getting worse(central CT). Never seen it addressed anywhere. Crank the fines up, say minimum $750, to get this problem under control.

Call it a sin tax.

$750 for someone who can afford a R8 is peanuts.

Maybe introduce Finland-style fines, which are based on your last known income, like the guy who was fined 170,000 euros in 2003 (about $150,000)? He was going 80km/h in a 40km/h zone.
