  • Road Rage is already dumb enough....

Road Rager in a company vehicle with a big f-ing logo on the side is sheer stupidity!!!

Hamel Builders truck out of Baltimore MD. menacing/severe tailgating!  This is WAY past road rage - this idiot is bordering on psychotic.  Menacing with severe tailgating/flashing lights.

Don't make eye contact/protect yourself/pull over and let this idiot pass and hit an Oak Tree & die of blunt force trauma without hurting others - it's just a matter of time....

  • Ran not one but both red lights at the intersection of Graham and 30 at a very high rate of speed and yes I saw you putting your phone back in your purse after texting. I guess you stopped at the light on 30 and 148 because there were cars in front of you.  This little girl is a menace and will probably kill someone else while driving on her suicidal mission.

    The World Stops for YOU   Saturday, September 29, 2012

    To the JERK in the blue, convertible Porsche Boxster on County Line Road in Huntingdon Valley around 2:00 pm... apparently you thought the signs and arrows indicating a left lane merge (the lane you were in) meant the OTHER left lane [sic] stupid. NOT!!! So here's the 4-1-1, if you're in the lane that has HUGE RIGHT ARROWS PAINTED IN THE LANE ON THE ROAD YOU'RE DRIVING IN (the ones nearly as big as that melon on your shoulders), that means YOU need to merge to the right lane, NOT operate under the premise that the waters of the Red Sea will part for you because you drive a Porsche. Get over yourself. Contrary to what you might think, EVERYONE follows the same signs and rules on the road - no matter what they're driving - even a white Jeep. BTW - when you make a turn you're SUPPOSED to turn into the RIGHT lane - TRY IT - then you won't have any future merging issues.

    The Lincoln Highway   Thursday, September 06, 2012

    The magic accelerator pedal! Where did you get it? It senses the passing zones on the grades west of Gettysburg and magically speeds your vehicle up, making it hard for NORMAL people to pass you!!! Once you're back to the double yellows it slows your vehicle back down below the speed limit as if by magic!!!

    Reckless driver   Thursday, August 02, 2012

    Reckless driving. Just bc you have a big truck doesn't mean you can cut people off. Almost hit me trying to get into toll lane. I swived around him and stopped right in front of him. He later passes me on the shoulder.

    Cut us Off !!   Tuesday, May 22, 2012

    PA Plate FTF7387 driving a Jeep CJ. Just before entering the Clarion entrance to I80, this young, female idiot pulled out in front of our pickup towing a trailer with quads on it and we barely had enough time to slow down. She obliviously went on her way without a care in the world!

    LOOK OUT FOR HTM-9398   Friday, April 20, 2012

     March 29, 2012, or thereabouts, (PA) HTM-9398, a black Saab 9.3 being driven by a student at Parkland High School, student parking permit #395, was driving extremely dangerously west on Albright Avenue in South Whitehall Township, PA, passing over the double yellow line at 75-85 mph in a 35 mph zone; rolled through the stop sign at Cedar Crest Blvd. without a complete stop, into the path of an oncoming car, forcing the car with the right-of-way to brake to avoid hitting this dangerous driver! His mommy or daddy needs to take away his car keys before he kills himself - or even WORSE - kills some INNOCENT PEOPLE by his reckless and dangerous driving! And, the South Whitehall PD needs to start enforcing the laws on Albright Avenue - a mile-long straightaway that kids see & use as a drag strip. ignoring other drivers and the LAW!

    Girl in Cavalier...   Tuesday, October 11, 2011

    Coming home from the bookstore today, this girl in a 2000 Silver Cavalier coupe nearly caused an accident with me not once but twice within 5 minutes... First was when I had the green right turn arrow,she makes a u-turn in an intersection that is not signed for it, the second was when I was trying to pass her because she was merging so slow, she cuts me off right at the last second, and the third was when I change lanes to get to my exit, she cuts me off again. As I am exiting the highway, she cuts off three other people and starts tailgating a 4th. She needs her license revoked...

    Torrential Fool   Friday, September 23, 2011

    Exton, PA -- YYY-5163 - During a torrential downpour when my windshield wipers couldn't even keep up with the rain and I was driving 40 mph, this oafus passed me throwing more water across my windshield and I had to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting him.

    Illegal Passing   Monday, July 04, 2011

      WPK73E - a NJ plate - passed me illegally on Route 115 South in Brodheadsville yesterday (7/3/2011) at 4:47 PM. The driver of the black Nissan crossed a double yellow line and passed me in the oncoming lane. He's lucky no one was coming north on 115. I don't know how he would have seen him coming visibility was poor at that point because it was also a hill!

    Erractic driver   Tuesday, June 14, 2011

    I always drive the PA Turnpike and today coming home from work, I happen to be headed to the Turnpike and a NY driver passed me on a double yellow line on two major highways, could not believe my eyes. I blew my horn at him, I happen to get on the Turnpike and there was a backup as usual and low and behold I caught up with this wacko and got his license plate number NY FLW5651 This was one of the new ugly orange and black plates.

    Route 100   Wednesday, March 30, 2011

     What is with all the idiots on route 100 between Bally and Hereford? There is a 55mph sign posted on the right after the diner coming out of Bally and one posted on the right after the shed sales place past route 29 and 100. Every morning there is at least a hand full of morons who continue to do 35-40mph on the friggin highway. And to top it off when you honk or flash they brake check you or throw their arms up. Yes asshat, I want you to go closer to 55 than whatever slow speed you are going.

    IDIOTS!

    Cut Off from Toyota Camry   Friday, December 17, 2010

     Red Toyota Camry on Rt. 66 North at 8:25 a.m. was supposed to merge from left lane into one right hand lane.  Instead thought she could talk on cell phone and just keep driving and push me into the berm.  After that episode was in front of me and continually tailgated for the next 8 miles.  Girl needs to put the cell phone down and realize there are other people on the road.
