Are you stupid? dont cut me off I am pulling something heavy

Hey this post is for us to vent about when we are pulling a heavy load or even an unloaded enclosed trailer how people constantly cut us off while we are stopping for a traffic light. People don't understand the danger they pose while doing this. For example I was on my way to a horse show with my sisters horse in the back and my family piled up in my truck. We were going through town and we knew we were going to make a right hand turn at the light a mile away while going 40 So we got in the right hand lane as a mile before the traffic light. then when I was about to apply the brakes for the light I could see someone was going to try to cut me off. let me tell you something people who do this I drive defensively aggressive. I had a winning horse and rider on board on the way to the show. So I stomped the throttle to block then got in the brakes and illegally made a right hand turn on red by not coming a complete stop. When people decide to cut you off I am sure you to would do the same to protect your truck, you chance to win if you were going to a competition, save yourself the time and tickets for rearending someone who cut you off, the court time, vet bills, and losing the chance to earn valuble points in the series you may be competiting in. My sister won that horse event in her classes and won the championship.

Someone else express yourself cuz I know alot of people experience this daily.
