Santa Barbara Can’t Drive

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

My wife and I spent a day in Santa Barbara today and witnessed some pretty wacky driving.  However, on the whole from what we saw around State St. and on the surrounding freeways, Santa Barbara drivers drive much better than Los Angeles [...]

Parking on Sidewalks Is a Bad Idea

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

This picture is pretty self-explanatory.  You can’t even escape the egocentric behavior of L.A. drivers when you’re not behind the wheel.  Now you see this a lot in Europe, but certainly not in America.  Alas, L.A. fails to disappoint when it comes [...]

So apparently I’m not the only one having bad run-ins with our blue-haired neighbors.  Here’s a submission I got last week regarding an encounter with an impatient curmudgeon in my old stomping grounds:
“So I’m sitting at a red light behind another car [...]

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Here’s a question: what shouldn’t you do while merging from one freeway to another?  How about switching lanes indiscriminately without signaling or checking for clearance?  Well, this moron in a Nissan Frontier did just that when he merged onto the 5 Fwy [...]

It doesn’t take a genius to see that this old geazer in a Nissan Altima is tailgating the car in front of it at 70 mph.  What you can’t see is this guy’s use of the exit only lane to [...]

Flatbed Truck Nearly Mows Down 2 Vehicles

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Full marks for this mobile road hazard–talk about falling asleep at the wheel and panicking for no reason whatsoever…. As an aside, I have no idea why this photo came out so screwy–maybe my cell phone was tripping on acid. [...]

Lost Truck Ignores Other Vehicles on the Road

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

OK…if you drive a large commercial vehicle, it is your responsibility to know where you’re going. If you don’t know where you’re going, it’s also your responsibility to drive as safely as possible until you get your bearings. Forget about [...]

Moron Hits Pedestrian while Reversing

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

If it’s a felony to get in the face of a pilot while you’re in air, what is it if you hit a pilot while you’re still on the ground? This photo was taken at LAX while we were circling around, [...]

“Clueless” Isn’t Just a Movie…It’s a Biography

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

God, I wish we could’ve gotten a picture of this one. Hopefully the diagram will make sense. I got this photo of this strip mall by Ventura and Radford from GoogleMaps. The red oval was a white Infinity G35 [...]
