Bald headed male in the above vehicle driving erratically weaving back and forth in his lane pointing his hand out the window at drivers coming from other direction and passing him with his hand shaped like a handgun. Simulated shots at other drivers by recoiling his hand. VERY odd behavior.

Hazard : Possible DUI

Culver at Jefferson goes from one to two lanes. I'm first in line. When light changes I head for left lane for eventual left turn. But wait, that interferes with R&R's plans to go 20 over the limit, so he floors it and passes when I'm already 3/4 of the way into the left lane and heads off at high rate of speed.

Flag : Rude and Reckless

At a 4-way stop, this driver did not wait his turn and followed the vehicle ahead of him through the intersection, blowing off other drivers waiting at the intersection.

Delivery driver hit a tree when parking his truck; apparently he was delivering for Best Buy, but he refused to provide any contact information for himself or his company. Incident required calling San Jose Police. Does Best Buy find this kind of behavior from its drivers acceptable?

Hazard : HIt-and-run truck

this driver passes a mile of cars all stopped waiting their turn to get on a highway in right lane (Gilman Drive to get on I-5), then at last minute cuts over and full speed to get on the highway. Very dangerous and selfish jerk. Plate says "UCSD Alumni"

zips around in the wrong lane and then cuts people off sharply when it's time to make a turn. Avoid at all cost. A young(ish) lady driving a white Toyota Echo.

As usual I ran into another jerk in the Ralphs parking lot at Brookhurst and Adams. I park next to this SUV and I'm perfectly straight in my parking space -- not crooked or over the lines. I'm sitting in my car and this bitch starts yelling that she can't get into her SUV (she's parked next to me). She swings open her door and slams it into my car. I say, "What's your problem?" She says, "Why did you have to park next to me? I can't get into my SUV?" I say, "Why don't you lose weight (she was a fat pig) or get a smaller car so you're not over the lines?" This idiot was so fat she'd probably have to lose 300 lbs. just in her butt! She then flips me off and drives off. She had this guy with her who remained perfectly quiet. Must have been "you know what" whipped putting up with this chick. This psycho needs a psychiatrist!

This idiot kept trying to back in to a parking space at Huntington Beach Hospital. He had a big pick up truck and kept going back and forward, back and forward, because the jerk didn't know how to drive his truck. He kept getting in the way of traffic. When I got out of my car I said to him, "Why don't you park over there and just walk?" His intelligent retort to me was, "F*** You!" It's typical of men who don't want to look like an ass in front of women.

Since tenant has moved into the Tradewinds Apartments at 403 Junction Avenue in the Fall of 2013, the motorcyclist and his motorcycle have been generating loud noises in excess of 120 decibels between the hours of 12:30am and 5:10am at various nights. This is illegal under Livermore Municipal Code, sections 9.36.10, 9.36.30, 9.36.40 and 9.36.50. 9.36.10 establishes that there is a noise ordinance inside Livermore city limits. 9.36.30 establishes that it is illegal to generate such noise as it disturbs the residents of Livemore. 9.36.40 establishes that it is illegal to operate noisy internal combustion engines during nighttime hours. 9.36.50 outlaws the use of loud exhaust systems inside Livermore city limits, regardless of the time of day. Complaints have been made to the apartment complex management over the noise by several neighbors but nothing seems to be done about it. As recently as Friday, 21 March 2014 at 5:10am, this motorcyclist has used the parking lot at Tradewinds Apartments to start his vehicle and then ride it right around the bedroom windows of the folks in the southeastern part of the complex, which is less than 20 feet away from the windows of these folks. There have been other times like on Friday 21 February 2014 where the same motorcyclist and motorcycle have been heard at 12:30am and on Monday 03 February 2014 that this motorcyclist and motorcycle have been running at 3:30am. We are also looking at taking legal action and at this time are undertaking the gathering of further evidence, including video and photographic surveillance as well as further decibel readings. Any evidence that is gathered will also be turned into the Livermore Police Department to find out if even criminal or nuisance charges can be filed against the offender.

This woman is full of road rage! She will hurt someone or herself soon enough. I am riding in the bike lane, slowing down and stopping because of the red light when she starts honking and screaming profanities - I asked her (politely) what her problem is - she replies that I need to get off the road, I inform her i am IN THE DESIGNATED BIKE LANE, and she is stopped at the red light anyways. She throws some trash at me from her car and drives off. This time she was driving white or gray large sized sedan. Causasian, brunette, likely late 40ies but looks to be in her mid 50ies, overweight. 4PM Jan 2nd, 2014, intersection of Carmel Valley and Camino del Sur, https://maps.google.com/?ll=32.97623,-117.145656&spn=0.003265,0.004737&t=h&z=18. She was driving North on Camino Del Sur, took right onto Carmel Valley.
