Blue BMW SUV with Washington State license tag 253 UYO just missed running over a pedestrian in a crosswalk by the Santa Clara University campus. Female, blond, early 20s was behind the wheel and took the turn from The Alameda onto El Camino Real at 30mph plus.

What is it with people who can't stand to wait 3 seconds while someone in front of them is making a turn.....I mean they'll literally drive over the double yellow lines and over someone's lawn to avoid having to wait a couple of seconds......are we that impatient as a society or do people think their lives are so important that they need to put someone else's at risk? Come on folks......HB

Try this topic... tossing cigarettes

Vehicle: Chevy Colorado
Color: Black
Location: Pensacola, FL


A few days ago, I saw a Navy Chief toss a cigarette out the window while at a traffic light.

1. Who thinks that is not a worthwhile flag here and who thinks it is bad enough to be mentioned? Is is real littering or bad enough to start a fire in the right circumstances OR it is not a serious situation.

2. Who thinks that I should not mention that he is a Navy Chief? I do respect the US military (I was one) but since he was in uniform and had Navy stickers with the Chief symbol, it was plain that he was not concerned to be identified with the Navy while tossing the cigarette out on the street.

Some wanted a good discussion. Others have left because of trolls. We'll see if we get a mature discussion or a insult match.

HAVING BEEN ONE OF THE ORIGINAL PARTICIPANTS ON THE SITE IT REALLY SADDENS ME TO SEE THAT IT'S NOT BEING VISITED AS OFTEN AND WHEN I BOTHER TO CHECK IT OUT THERE'S ALWAYS SOME KIND OF CHILDISH BEEF GOING ON......BUT USUALLY not ABOUT WHAT THIS SITE WAS DESIGNED FOR.......VEHICLES, ROADS, AND PEOPLE BEHIND THE WHEEL......CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG BUT I BELIEVE THOSE THINGS ARE STILL OUT THERE......SAVE THE OTHER STUFF FOR fb AND twitter...........COME ON BACK AND JOIN IN CONVERSATIONS THAT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR LIVES.......{:-)

Ban the user pisseddriver26, or take this site down.  Taking neither of these actions is incompatible with rational thinking.

 Was cruising in the far-right lane of EB i-96 in Detroit this afternoon when this SFB in a newer black Ram decided he needed to exit at Davison. Nearly caused a needless wreck. From the far left lane. Laid on the horn and told him he was NO. 1. Seriously, if you're too stupid to notice your exit in time and get over safely, go to the NEXT ONE. I see this brain-dead jackass again, there will be a formal complaint made.

  PlateWire is an idea and website that I think should be doing much better than it is. I was disappointed to see so few daily entries. I would have thought this would be a much more popular website. I think some of the arguing in comments tends to put people off. The website should also stick to its original cause and not include the "Wink" tags. And lastly, it is not being monitored to support its own rules of conduct. Kind of sad, because the idea itself has great potential.

While traveling east bound HWY 92 earlier this afternoon, this skid mark of an ass cut me off and then slams on the brake causing me to nearly rear-end him. I swerved around and he has the audacity to flick me off. Total trash.

He's a middle-aged white male with dirty blond hair and mustache. Drives a grey Ford F250 extended cab.

He headed up 580 and merged onto north bound HWY 13.

Watch out for this dick and give him a big F/U flip should anyone see on the road.

Ladies and gentleman! I give you the biggest boil on the ass of the world PISSEDDRIVER26! The loser who loves to troll from its mommies basement! The biggest skid-mark in existence! The retard who hides behind a computer and fails to back up its words with facts! The sick freak who loves to 'get it on' with a goat because it can't get any action anywhere else! Farmers and ranch hands, hide your livestock! PD26 is on the prowl! 

How do you people feel about drivers who block merging lanes? Almost every day I see at least one driver who decides that it is their job to drive on the dotted line, halfway in their lane, halfway in the merge lane, to ensure that no one getting on the freeway is able to properly use the merging lane. I assume they think what they are doing is in the right (it's not). Any of you guys do this? 

  Today I was half an hour late getting home due to a large number of very bad drivers, so I want to dedicate this journal to awarding the worst among them with the Ultimate ****head Award.

Today we had two Honerable Mentions that almost made the list. Both were landscaping trucks.

The first, a proper dump truck, passed almost half a mile of traffic in the Exit Only lane while moving slowly and holding up all of the exiting traffic behind him, before finally cutting over at the last second. He gets an honorable mention because while I expect this kind of behavior from the average Palo Alto driver, we like to pretend that people holding Class A licenses for oversize vehicles can be held to a higher standard.

The second, driving a converted pickup truck, gets his honorable mention for driving 10mph down a single-lane street through a neighborhood with a 30mph limit. Speed the **** up or pull over, buddy.

Now on to the winners.

Our Third Place winner for the Ultimate ****head Award goes to the 30-something woman driving alone in a red minivan up Page Mill Road, averaging 15-20mph and holding up a long line of traffic for 5+ miles while driving with one hand with her lips wrapped around a Starbucks coffee cup lid like it was a big fat ****. Lady, here's what I don't get... you've had the last 20 minutes 'alone' with your coffee while holding up other drivers like an enormous ****waffle... how have you not finished it yet? Your prize is public ridicule and universal scorn. Get off our roads.

Second Place goes to the driver of the **** brown sedan that crossed the double yellow, sped down the oncoming traffic lane in heavy traffic, ran a red light, and almost hit 2 other cars and a bicyclist in the intersection while making his illegal left turn. Congratulations buddy, I caught you on camera. Your prize is an angry letter to the Sheriff's office on your behalf. In the future, just stay home 5VDC434.

With a performance like that, you're probably wondering what could top it for the grand prize today.   Well as it happens we have one deserving driver that went the extra mile to leave the judge thoroughly unimpressed.

The Ultimate ****head Award Grand Prize of the Day goes to none other than the green mini cooper driver who held up traffic while driving 10-15mph below the limit for 8 miles without using a single turn-out to let people pass (average of 2 per mile on that stretch of road) However, it doesn't end there. Not only did he cause extreme aggrivation for people behind him, but also provided an immediate danger of severe injury or death to the oncoming lane of traffic when he crossed the double yellow to pass a bicyclist fully in the oncoming lane while in an uphill blind left corner overlooking a cliff. Your prize is an angry letter to the Sheriff's office, and the sincere wishes that when you hit someone head-on pulling something like that, that someone is driving a semi truck, and not a bike. Die alone, 6UJY316.

My atheistic proof of no god(s) is that if there were really a god he/she/it would smite all of your for your horrendous use of the English language with which he/she/it has supposedly provided to you.

Do you or someone you know suffer from road rage? Does your worst side come out when you hit the road? Are friends and family afraid to drive with you? Do you have an extreme phobia of roundabouts and 4-way stop signs?

If this describes you, or someone you know, we want them NOW! Car and Driver Magazine is seeking HORRIBLE DRIVERS with BIG PERSONALITIES for a web series. Series will be shot in the New York Tri-State Area in August / September. We are seeking them out, coaching them with a professional driving instructor, giving them a final exam and giving them a chance to regain their driving cred.

Interested? Or would like to nominate someone? Please email baddrivercasting@gmail.com with “Bad Driver” in the subject line with the following info:

Im one of them people that love to stay in the left lane doing the speed limit and dont give a damn if you get mad. i do it just to piss you all off. I also have found a love for getting about 1 foot from the rear tires of a motorcycle. Yeah let them try to pull a gun, ill run over them. I hate bikes and will pull out in front of them just so they crash. so what if im law and order. I profile bikers and give them tickets all the time.

I've been busy with school and work the last few weeks and haven't been checking in, stopped by today and found that nothing has really changed. PD26 is still trolling the new posts with insults, and 1bmf is still filing stupid complaints against people. At least djackson has been behaving himself lately. Back to the books, if I ever want to be more than a substitute teacher I need to get that bachelors. And I need to graduate college before the kid does.

  Hi, I am a Gig Harbor resident who is concerned about the lack of attention to the law. At an intersection just down the road from my house, and 2 schools, is a 4 way stop that no one seems to obey. (Unless they have to!) I have reported it to police and had an interview (shown below) on KIRO news 7 following a skateboarder accident that happened right in front of my eyes two weeks ago. I made this You Tube video comical so that it hopefully gets some attention. Please share it with those who would find it funny or those who could help it get greater exposure. The video is a 4 way stop where 25 cars blow the stop signs in 3 minutes. You HAVE to watch it to appreciate it. Hope you like it, it took quite a few hours to make. Thanks, A concerned resident ~prefer not to have my name involved~ MY VIDEO: http://youtu.be/dWjpCk_2dLY

Looses her parking garage ticket and refuses to pay the full fee.  Holds up the entire line for 1 hour until they open up another booth!  This bitch is crazy!!!   She just locks herself in her car and has no consideration for others!  If you loose your ticket, you pay full price.  Who do you think you are, holding up everyone else because you are too CHEAP to pay your fine!

The Beijing Auto Show got the very first look at the BMW i8 Spyder in the flesh. The i8, BMW's gorgeous mid-engine, plug-in hybrid sports car, is set to debut in 2014, with the convertible following in 2016. With the right auto loan financing, you may be able to snatch up an i8 Spyder pretty quickly.

Mission of the car

The “i” series is something BMW has been working on to be able to get some “green” vehicles on the road. BMW announced last year that there were two vehicles being worked on specifically. There was the i8 and the i3. The i3 was a compact electric city car, and the i8 was a sports vehicle that was a plug-in hybrid. The look of the i8 will get it sold pretty quickly.

The rear wheels of the i8, according to the Chicago Tribune, are powered by a mid-mounted 223-horsepower turbocharged three-cylinder motor and a 131-horsepower electric motor drives the front wheels, giving it 354 horsepower and 0 to 62 miles per hour time of five seconds.

The i8 Spyder is the convertible version of the vehicle that was announced. The Beijing Auto Show showed the way the automobile looks, according to USA Today, although there were only sketches released for a while.

Comes with an eDrive badge

According to MotorAuthority, the i8 Spyder in Beijing had an “eDrive” badge on it. Whether a vehicle is electric or plug-in hybrid does not matter; any vehicle with electric drive-train technology will be designated an eDrive automobile. The BMW electric 1 series also got the badge.

The coupe edition of the i8, according to AutoCar, is going to be a 2-plus-2, as it will have a rear seat. The Spyder will come as a roadster. It isn’t known what form of removable roof it will get, but AutoCar reports that it will come as a targa top with removable carbon fiber panels. The concept also has an indentation on the rear engine cover, which is said to be a storage compartment for the roof panels.

[Be not afraid; car loan finance is a cinch]

The Spyder will be released two years after the i8. The i8 is prepared to go on sale in early 2014 after production begins in 2013.

The i8 and i8 Spyder will have a top speed of 155 miles per hour on them. This will be a limit put to the automobile. The i8 is not heavy at all, according to MotorAuthority, with a weight of around 3,200 pounds.

The gas motor will not kick in until 20 miles, which is the range of the electric part of the automobile. If a driver wants all wheel drive, they can do that and use electric and fuel at the same time. It is unknown what the gas mileage is, but it is anticipated to be around 94 miles per gallon, according to AutoCar.

The vehi-cle will cost at least $150,000, which makes it very costly.

This driver was inept beyond any hope of measurement.  He pulled his appliance out directly in front of me, running a stop sign in the process, cutting me off.  Lucky for both of us, I was ready for him, anticipated his titanically inept driving, and avoided trouble.  I flicked the high beams at him and honked, but he was in la la land - utterly oblivious.

Once I rolled up behind this nitwit, I saw what one of his additional problems was, besides being a Camry driver in the first place.  The damn fool had his phone mounted on the windshield, directly in front of his fool face, playing a video.

Somebody is going to get Darwin'd by this idiot; fortunately it wasn't me.  Only a truly monumental ass watches videos on their phone, at night, with the display directly in their line of sight, while driving.

I noticed the in memory of "Brenda M. Greene" decal on the rear window of BMG-ANGL due to it being inches from the front passenger side of my car, as he attempted to change lanes with no signal and no room to do so. I honked my horn and slammed on my brakes, this jerk than finishes cutting me off and charges ahead. No less than a minute later he slams on the brakes and swerves into the left lane to go around a car that was turning right in front of him. Again no turn signal or a glance in the mirror, he almost hit someone else. He than precedes to turn right onto a side street a 1/2 mile down the road. Three times he should have used a turn signal, twice he almost killed and/or injured someone or some car to make it ONE MILE DOWN THE BLOODY ROAD!!! What in the heck is wrong with the drivers in the Northern Virginia, DC, Maryland area. You get home no faster than I do and yet you drive like lunatics and no one uses their turn signals for anything. I hate driving here, you should all have your licenses revoked, for the turn signal thing alone.

This Guy has a real problem, tryed to run me off the road.
Called 911 and gave them his plate number UWW-39Y new jersey plate.
Coming out of Dover he is behind me, and I was a little confused with the flow of trafic, I live in PA, Now I know why!! He gave me a toot on the horn and I stuck my hand out and gave him a wave as to say I'm doing my best, Not the finger!!
As I get on rt15 going north this guy decides hes going to pass me on the right and then proceeds to push me off the road in Friday bumper to bumper traffic and he is waving out the window!! I called 911 gave his plate and location. Not sure if they caught up with this A hole but I'm not done.
 

 i'm driving along route 28 northbound and as i'm coming towards mclearen road (still light out from daylight savings 7pmish).  not much traffic and there's a grey range rover license plate 27202z that is zig-zagging all over the road.  i notice him like 500 feet from me and my natural state of mind from seeing something like that is: what the fudge?

anyways, i keep plugging along not paying attention to it.  mind you, i am speeding a bit, going 73mph, but i am in the fast lane and i never tail-gate and i slow down when necessary.  with that in mind all of a sudden i see this grey range rover come alongside my car in the middle lane, while i'm in the fast lane for about 15 seconds.  glaring at me with his sunglasses he decides to put a cap on at that moment and cover some of his face and then starts drifting towards my lane, so i start to slow down.  one point he's ahead of me, the next he's behind me flashing his lights at me.  i have no idea what to expect.  after this he goes in front of me again and i speed a little bit to catch him so i can get his license plate.  after that he hauls @$$ out of there before i can let 9-1-1.  he didn't break any traffic laws besides the speeding.

my whole point out of all this is: african-american ~45years-old, exercise some caution when around this driver.

  Asshole cuts across lanes without looking, runs me into guardrail and doesn't stop. When I catch him at a light coming off the highway, he looks at me as though I'm crazy and he has no idea what he's done wrong!!!!!
