I'll never forget during Driver's Ed class- I was riding in the back while the instructor was sitting in front with this other classmate driving. We were on Metcalf and traffic was good and plenty. He comes to an intersection and as soon as he reaches the intersection, the light turns yellow. So, the kid stops the car partly out in the intersection. The instructor says to him without looking, "You're already in the intersection, it's okay to go."

So, the kid proceeds to drive, which is now too late. We're in the middle of the intersection and all these cars are trying to move when the instructor yells, "NO! Go back!" So, the poor kid reverses it only to see a car had pulled up to the crosswalk and he really had nowhere to go, but sit in the middle of the intersection. The whole time I'm cracking up in the backseat....
