Latest Wires for United States : California
Getting ready to transition from I-405 north to CA 118 east, 11:20am 7/6/2017, CA 7PVR203 elects to move a lane to the right without looking or maybe looked and just didn't care. If I hadn't braked in the nick of time, it could have been curtains for us and our Prius, an overpriced imported fender, perhaps, for encroaching hulk. Does your insurance company indemnify this vehicle? Bad risk, big mistake! When -- not if -- the inevitable happens and he smashes into a car or two, I'm retired and it would make my day to come testify in court about MY experience with this driver. No mileage charge for my lesser automobile.

Flag : Well I'm driving a 'Benz and you're not.

About 2:40pm June 24 I'm eastbound on Jefferson in moderate congestion, waiting my turn to get into the left turn lane to go north on La Cienega. Meanwhile, black Tahoe SUV CA 6BXH109 is barreling down the median with the same thing in mind, but he's way too important to get in line, wait his turn and enter the lane at the designated place. Does your company insure this pendejo? That could be a big mistake!

Flag : Rude and rushed!

View Details
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.

Flag : Wait Your Turn

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

The guy is a maniac - drives erratically, slams on brakes and turns while not showing signals. Starts yelling - gets out of the car with lots of profanities. Stay away!

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"

Flag : cuts people off

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.

Flag : cuts people off on purpose

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.

Flag : Disgusting Jackass

Noisy custom muffler

Grey Honda Civic 6HNK647 has a horribly noisy non-OEM muffler.  My ears were assaulted every time a traffic light turned green on Washington Blvd.  For some reason, these offenses aren't being cited and prosecuted often enough.
