This may be “old news” to some (more details here), including me … but the headline from fark.com was really nice …

To the dipsh*t who decided it would be a fine idea to take a 15 axle semi trailer through River Falls and make a right turn from Hwy 29 onto Hwy 65 heading towards the Cities … what the f*ck were you thinking? It took the driver more than 10 minutes to get through that intersection. To the idiot who programmed the stoplights at that intersection…. what the f*ck!? As it turns out, if the traffic coming out of RF on 29 never clears, the traffic going in the opposite direction never gets a green light. I sat through 3 complete light cycles waiting for a green! *beats people over the head with a clue bat*
