I went to make a left hand turn into a driveway turned my signal on and braked for a pretty lengthy period because there was oncoming traffic. This guy behind me apparently wasn't paying attention, he was at least a couple hundred feet behind me to begin with and rear ended me. After I pulled to the side of the road to see what the damage was, the driver kept going and took an immediate left and disappeared. Just another fancy car that thinks they don't have to be responsible for their actions. Luckily there wasn't any damage to the back of my car, and I got his license plate number with ease. The next time I see this car he's going to get his tires slashed.

Driver went thru a stop sign with out stopping and proceeded to make a left hand turn. While doing this driver was on a cell phone and didn't even check for cross traffic as she didn't have the right of way. Driver only looked left after my passenger and myself yelled at her to get off the cell phone. Driver continue to stay on the phone even after the incident. Fortunately we were able to stop in time to avoid broadsiding this driver.

Driving back to work from lunch this idiot driver changed lanes without looking almost causing an accident.

Look before changing lanes idiot.

I was waiting for some friends to go eat pizza and I saw this mustang pull up and park in the handicap parking spot. The driver got out and proceeded to the door. I told him that he should not be parking there. He said his girlfriend is blind. However I did not see a handicap parking sticker anyplace and his girlfriend did not get out of the car. There was a couple of parking spots close to where he parked. No handicap sticker, no parking in handicap spots.

I seriously hope someone runs you off the road, I'd love to watch the look on your face as you try to maintain your vehicle from flippin over or running into a sign. Now there's ro

Danger in cross walk

Tuesday, April 07, 2009

justagirl

Dear Motorist in the lovely blue PT Cruiser with the license plant LAG 659, when a pedestrian is in the cross walk and the walk symbol is flashing, this means the pedestrian has the right of way and folks such as yourself in automobiles should not speed up to go through the intersection before the pedestrian. This is illegal oh because it is freaking dangerous.

Both speeding and slip streaming between cars and two tractor trailers. Then when two vehicles were merging on to the freeway the p/u almost ran them off the road. The p/u got in front of all the traffic in the left lane and then slowed down n

The Worst Ever

Boise, Id, a rapidlly growing city and the capitol of Idaho. As the city grows, so does the increase of bad drivers. If you are going to move into someone else's city, maybe you should drive a little better. Driving on the shoulder on freeway off ramps, driving a mile up the middle lane(the suicide lane) just so you can be the first one waiting at the red light-DUMB, or driving around people that are waiting to turn(what makes you so important that you can't wait an extra thirty seconds while t
