  • My sister (an excellent driver) was driving me home from an orthopedics appointment when this fool just HAD to use the right-turn-on-red to jump in front of her ACROSS TWO LANES, then take his time getting to the next light. Once there, and we got the green left-turn arrow, he hangs back and waits until the yellow before just ditty-boppin' on through the turn. We were stuck behind him for about a mile or so, before getting past him on a 4-lane. He caught up to us at another light a few miles later, because we were into a small construction area, and had to change lanes to pass the street dept. truck. Apparently, he's too muddled & befuddled to know what those yellow flashing lights are for, because he almost ran into the fresh patch that was going in next to us! Dunno why he was in such a hurry after that, because he ended up next to us at the net light again, and was revving his engine TRYING TO MAKE THE LIGHT CHANGE! He wasn't trying to race us, because my sister eased thru the intersection before he got rolling! Some people NEED to be riding the bus.

  • See this driver almost every day recklessly passing other vehicles and always making a complete fool of himself. He is a nerdy middle aged man in a white bug...come on. Very slick roads this morning and he was up to his usual business of speeding, passing everyone and got mad at us when we slowed down to make our turn.

  • I was NBD on I-65 going through downtown Indianapolis around 4:30 PM today when the cited vehicle, a red Mercury Cougar, passed me and then merged into the lane I was in and quickly braked. Traffic was slowing down about 1/4 mile ahead, but this person slowed down from 55 to 35 and then crawled along. I found an opening in the lane next to me, so I merged and sped up. The clown driving the Merc then decided to speed up as well. Traffic was slowing ahead and this idiot decides he wants into my lane again, this time merging RIGHT in front of me, with me nearly taking out his rear quarter panel. By this time, I've had enough, and merge into another lane to get away, but this clown wants to play games. I'm in an F150, so I'll win whatever game he wants to play. The MLK exit comes up, and I think he believes he can go around traffic because he speeds off onto the ramp - only to get caught up in exiting traffic. I really need to get a dash cam...

  • This idiot has one of the popular "In God We Trust" license plates on their vehicle. A little after 5 pm today, I was driving through the parking lot at Walmart on SR 26 (after seeing a near-hit incident at the same location), and had stopped at the stop sign guarding one of the enterances. I start moving and the fool behind the wheel of the Kia pops out of the driveway and proceeds to turn in front of me. Luckily I have quick reflexes and brake quickly. He didn't seem to notice I was there until I honk my horn at him. God help us with people like this behind the wheel.

  • This fool has one of the popular "In God We Trust" plates. Today at 5 pm, I was walking to the enterance of the Walmart on SR 26 and notice a couple in front of me in the driveway. The older woman behind the wheel of the Lincoln with heavily tinted windows slows but doesn't stop. She pushes the guy out of her way with the vehicle, and keeps on driving away. I later found the car parked in front of the Fashion Bug. Was there a huge sale she had to get to? We really need to trust that God will protect us from idiots like this, especially when they display these plates.

  • She is stopped at a red light. So am I, she is facing east, me west. I get the turn left arrow, so does the person in the turn lane next to her. She runs the red light nearly hitting me as I turn left with the green arrow. She is a hazard and all should beware.

    Left laners   Thursday, May 07, 2009

    I build highways for a living and I have always said, if people knew how to drive, we wouldn't need all of those extra lanes. What ever happened to not getting in the left lane unless you are passing? It worked great! Now you have to put up with these people driving along with their cell phones stuck to their heads or somebody just driving in the passing lane holding everyone up as they drive with their head up their ass. People treat driving as a game........period! Not even realizing that they can die in a heartbeat if they are not careful. And I have always wondered as I am the tenth car behind somebody holding up people in the left lane, don't you have rear view mirrors and if you do, don't you see that we want to pass? And if you do, you deserve all the road rage that is thrown at you!

    My thoughts for the road   Thursday, September 04, 2008

    I work 8 hours a day and I look forward to gettig home to my baby. I usually go about 5 miles over the speed limit. I am not in a hurry, but if I come upon a driver who I feel is going a bit slow, I will pass. But I will also have drivers who get behind me and stay there. They have ample room and time to pass, but they won't.

     

    Also, why do some drivers feel they have to pull out in front of someone? I can drive down the local highway and ther will be no one behind me or no one coming the other way. Yet there will always be someone pulling out in front of me because they don't want to wait the 5 extra seconds.

    Dangerous Driving

    By the driver of the following vehicle:
    Blue Older Model Chevrolet Blazer

    IN Plate # 192129a

    This Offence was Alleged to Occur in Indianapolis on I465 North at Crawfordsville Road while travelling in a North direction on Tuesday 08 Jan 08 at approximately 06:45 AM.

    This alleged offence has been reported by family man who had the following comments: This sub-human rode dangerously close behind me, then darted to the right to pass me and cut me off. I beeped my horn to warn the driver that there was no room. The coward slams on the brakes to almost a complete stop on the interstate during morning rush-hour traffic. The use of the vehicle as a dangerous weapon because of their own insecurity is sickening.

     A lot of people really upset over a more minor thing in life. Nobody has the right to enforce the law on anyone else. If you choose to speed, so be it. If you choose to try to enforce the limit by driving in the left lane so be it. Everyone gets theirs in the end. Speeders get tickets and blockers are recipients of road rage. Everyone has a choice, some are just smarter about the choice they make.

    Truck drivers from Indiana   Thursday, January 04, 2007

    What is it with male truck drivers?  The jerk off driving a truck with Indiana plates (354407) should have his license ripped up and thrown away.  This idiot cut me off, making me have to slam on my breaks and almost send my daughter thru the windshield.  And we were both wearing seat belts.

    Indiana must give licenses to any idiot since they obviously don't know how to drive.

    Beware of him.......he's dangerous.
