Yes. Was driving home from work on an old two-lane road (one lane of traffic in each direction) that handles way too much traffic to be that small. I was waiting to turn left at an intersection when the oncoming car turns on its left turn signal as well. At this point there's probably 10+ annoyed cars stuck behind me as it's a single lane and I've been waiting for a chance to turn (it was a minor intersection, so no light/sign on the street I was on), so trying to do the right thing, I start turning. Oncoming car blows through the intersection and hits me in the rear quarter panel/wheel well. He gets out mad as hell, so I point out why did he have his turn signal on if he wasn't going to turn, and he admitted it was on, but claimed it was for a driveway a full 100ft past the intersection. Of course when the cops showed up, he changed his story and claimed he had no turn signal on and I just turned in front of him out of nowhere. With no real evidence, I was found to be at fault.

And that's why to this day, I now wait until anyone with their turn signal on is nearly finished turning before I even start. I should probably just get a dash cam.
