Very true. Even known the right-of-way, you have to be careful in what you're doing to make sure the other person at the intersection isn't a complete yahoo. It's defensive driving 101.

This is awesome:

“I was racially and sexistly slurred by Captain Carri Weber while I was asking a question of the instructor in training,” the officer wrote in the complaint. “I am now firmly aware of the discriminatory belief she just verbally communicated. … There is no place in the Plainfield Police administration or supervision for someone who holds and espouses her discriminatory views.”

Live by the sword, die by the word. If your ideology is built on the idea that gendered racial language is by definition sexist and racist, then down goes Frazier.

My guess - she'll go on paid leave to go to rehab and get counseling, and have to write an apology letter before she can return to her post.

Sometimes, booze brings out the best and the worst in people simultaneously.
