how about a Pittsburg left?
I've never heard of the term before, but I've seen people do it. I however have never done it before- probably because all of my cars have sucked- has anybody here?

OMG!

I grew up there... When I first came to Southern Calif, I just assumed everyone did it and almost got run over and fingered by the opposing traffic.

Even now, when I'm back visiting in Pittsburgh, I still sometimes forget and almost run over the left turning car....
