New submission from mesheb82:

I'm trying to join paths on Windows with data taken from a user generated file. 
 In doing so, I came across:

    >>> os.path.join('dir1', '/dir2')
    '/dir2'

I'd expect an error or:

    'dir1\\dir2'

This has been tested and is consistent with Python 2.7.13 and 3.6.1.
