Comments on: Not Just Innocent Mishaps of Missing One’s Exit http://www.lacantdrive.com/2009/06/30/not-just-innocent-mishaps-of-missing-ones-exit/ Los Angeles drivers can't drive. Plain and simple. Basic traffic laws and driving etiquette clearly do not apply in a town where the people seem to operate in their own little bubble, completely unaware or dismissive of others on the road. Call it what you will: self-entitlement, negligence, malaise, ignorance. My goal? To have mandatory driving tests randomly issued where drivers are eligible for selection after 6 years. Consider this jury duty for the road.

EVERY SINGLE DAY these same people pull these same stunts just to get a few carlengths ahead of where they would have been if they were just playing by the rules. And it's not just a few cars, it's like 1 in 10 cars doing this stuff. You can imagine how messy these intersections get with multiple people cramming into one lane at the last second. I really wish the CHP would post cameras and fine people like this, who knowingly obstruct traffic. Maybe let one-time offenders go, but anyone caught doing it 2+ times gets a ticket.
