This kind of stuff only really bothers me when the rule breaking effects others. Ie, a lot of times I am behind the people who want to take that turn AND are impeding traffic. Or the guys who turn illegally down Edmonton Trail, they often force people behind them to stop suddenly (which because of the grade, is on the dangerous side, especially in winter). Those guys get the horn.
I'm ok with breaking rules with the caveat that you gotta take responsibility for it if something goes wrong, and you don't impede others when doing so. Like people who can't jaywalk property. I'm all for jaywalking, but if you make cars slow down for you, then you're the ahole.

100% we’re on the same page then. Totally valid gear grinder.
There is basically no excuse for people who break rules that then create dangerous situations or impede others/force others to adapt to them.
Every once in a while I catch people crossing memorial at the peace bridge, which is fine, whatever, but it drive me nuts when people then stop for them.
It would also drive me crazy to be stuck behind someone stopped waiting to turn at that zoo bridge turn even though I make that turn whenever I can.
