  • Aggressive driver, was driving in the bike lane, cutting cyclists off. Then deliberately slammed the brakes to cause a cyclist behind him to crash into his rear window. Denied responsibility, claimed he just wanted to pull over, but it was clearly a deliberate act, aimed to injure the cyclist. BEWARE! License plate says "Retired US Air Force" and front plate says "EMT".

  • This guy cuts in front of people with the slightest amount of space available. Totally oblivious, rude and dangerous. Even worse, he looks like a giant sloth strapped into his seat unable to turn his head. It's not wonder he cuts people off. Total HAZARD.

  • Please be aware that this car is out there patrolling the streets and conducting photo surveillance, license plate scans and other hanky-panky out there in San Leandro. So if you find yourself out there in San Leandro, please be aware that this SLPD vehicle is out there getting your information through your License Plate, taking pictures of you and your family, even in front of your own home, and storing that information indefinitely along with running your background information and checking to see if you have a criminal record, regardless of whether or not you actually committed that crime in San Leandro. If we get any more information and find more police cars out there with this equipment, we will put that information here on Platewire.com. Somebody out there has to be watching the watchers, too, to make sure that they are kept honest.

  • To the gentleman in the gray corolla wearing aviators AND TEXTING WHILE DRIVING. First of all, texting is illegal while driving. Secondly, it is NOT okay to jump out of a left turn lane while traffic on the regular lanes are going 35 miles an hour. I nearly side swiped your whole car. That's fine, we all make mistakes. What really ANGERS me is that you were TEXTING. What. An. Idiot. Shoulda just hit you and collected. I was in the market for a new car anyway.

  • What part of this is a parking lot and not the freaking Indianapolis 500 do not get? Little Suzie NASCAR needs to cool her jets and drive like a person who cares if they kill someone in in a parking lot. Listen to me you ignorant stupid fool, when I'm walking through this parking lot you slow the fuck down. You also need to get that sorry heap you call a automobile into a garage because it sounds like a broken down century old tug boat. The next time you speed through a parking lot you might very well hear a loud horrible thump. It might be that poor old lady you ran over coming out from the Hanger with only one leg or it might be a brick coming through your window from the pissed off pedestrian that you almost hit. Working in a law office I'd think you'd know better than to take such a risk. SERIOUSLY BITCH SLOW THE FUCK DOWN!

  • This woman tailgated me the ENTIRE time I was on the freeway. I swear she was stopping an inch away from my rear bumper, I braced myself everytime traffic stopped. I was going south on the 15 freeway around 3:30 pm.

  • Was stopped at a four way stop in a residential neighborhood on a quiet street, when the car approached from my right. Wary of drivers who ignore this Stop sign, I waited to make sure he'd stop. He slowed slightly, then accelerated through. Had I proceeded after coming to a stop, he would have t-boned the side of our truck, right where me 3 year old daughter was sitting. I honked to make him aware of the large red SUV he apparently hadn't seen right in front of him. Afterwards, at a nearby intersection, driver pulls up next to us and angrily gives us the finger.

  • The middle-aged woman, Caucasian, dark medium-length hair driving a gold Toyota SUV driving Southbound 880 on 9/19/2012 at approximately 10:15 am: She was driving in excess of 100 mph weaving in and out of traffic. I witnessed her cut multiple people off at high speed and nearly causing more than one accident. She seemed psychotic, drunk or under the influence of drugs. She exited the freeway near Mowery Ave. (possibly Thornton exit). CHP and Fremont PD have been notified and are on the look out for her.

Driver got out walked inside the convenience store and asked the clerk for Skoal in the little packets. After which, driver got back out of convenience store and got back in his vehicle and left.

  • This idiot ran two stop signs within a block of each other. Speeding through a parking lot, he ran one, and almost broadsided me. Entering the main 4 lane highway, he ran another, not even hitting the brake. Then cross 3 lanes of traffic to make a left, not even looking at the traffic slamming on brakes to avoid him and he gives them the finger. This menace was either drunk, uncaring, not knowledgeable of road signs or all the above. Not surprising his car was already banged up on one side. This guy needs to be off the road!

  • This driver unfortunately had the same route to where she was going as my wife & kids did. During her 15 minute drive, she applied blush, curled her eyelashes, listened to her i-pod, and ate food...all while driving (badly). She just about rear-ended my wife at a stop sign, and had the nerve to give her a dirty look when they arrived at the same location (Steele Canyon High School). This woman is a danger to society if she drives like this...seriously. WATCH OUT if you see her!!!
