I hate making left-hand turns with an UNPROTECTED green light

I get to the light slightly before a big F-350, but there was a car coming on his other side so I had to stop completely.

There is no cars on my side of the street but instead of him making HiS left hand turn, he sits there, flashing his lights at me, signaling me to go.

I motioned, while he continues to flash his lights.

I had no visibility on his other side at that point...

If you MOVE your big truck and go ahead and turn, I can proceed safely!

I had to inch and inch and inch, all while he sat, then turned after I turned. Completely pointless as my side was clear the while time.

Ugh

For what it's worth. Whenever I do that (i also drive an F350) I am also watching the traffic behind me to make sure you really are safe to go.

@NickyLee I'm too skeptical of people to trust that, but thanks

@iamnikki I can understand that.

I make it obvious that I am watching the traffic coming up behind me. Whatever I do must make people feel comfortable, because they always seem to trust me.
(Not like this happens regularly or anything)

I absolutely understand what you're saying though. Stay safe out there
