Are We Too Laid Back Behind the Wheel?

Exhibit A:

Exhibit B:

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

You know what?  All too often, this “laid back” bull crap that’s spouted by lovers of Southern California is just a pathetic excuse for negligence, apathy, laziness, lack of ambition, or lack of self-control.  I’m not just talking about driving; [...]

Road Raging Silver Honda Accord

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

It’s no surprise to the better drivers in this town that people with road rage lose all semblance of logic and common sense.  Imagine a city full of commuters suffering from temporary insanity, which is essentially what I witnessed both this morning [...]

Old Yellow Sedan Has No Brake Lights

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

I’m not a car buff, so I couldn’t tell what kind of car this yellow number was.  Any guesses out there?  Besides, I was too distracted by the complete absence of any working rear lights as I followed him along my commute [...]

Mid-Life Crisis in a Green Jaguar

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Jaguar drivers are certainly on a roll, recently.  Here’s a balding assnut with a mid-life crisis in a moss green Jaguar going south on Coldwater.  First off, he was more concerned with posing in his convertible with his left elbow resting on [...]

Asshole Meter

This photo was taken during a Thursday morning commute and was taken on Magnolia just after crossing Colfax in North Hollywood.  Some people are just born to be angry, selfish trolls, like this diseased rhinoceros pizzle in an electric blue piece of [...]

Asshole Meter

Guess what tends to happen when you have something you never use?  You eventually forget that you ever had it.  Unfortunately, if that “something” is part of the car and is required by law, then its lack of use doesn’t bode well [...]

Idiot Trophy Wife Attempts to Add to Today’s Accidents

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Some people just don’t get it.  Today was a horrible day for commuters, with a fire near the Getty Center by Sepulveda, crashes on the 101 Fwy, Sig Alerts on the 5 Fwy, etc.  Speaking of the 5, we were traveling southbound [...]

Jerkoff in Toyota 4Runner Ignores Multiple Laws and Regulations

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

It’s certainly been awhile since I hammered in one of my oldest theories about L.A. drivers: if you see a driver with a broken or inoperable car light, chances are he or she is a bad driver.  Sure, the exceptions exist for [...]

Local Hero Stops Hit-and-Run Perp in Dodge Ram

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Here’s a submission from a reader who did the right thing and took matters into his own hands to catch someone who not only deserved to lose his license but should now spend some time behind bars.  Thanks to him, we have [...]

The Crazies Are Out on a Lazy Sunday Night

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Guess who were out and about on a late Sunday night?  Tailgaters and red light runners.  At the large multi-signal intersection at Tujunga and Riverside/Camarillo, some impatient asshole in a champagne-colored sedan didn’t feel like waiting for the light to change green.  [...]
