L.A. Can't Drive

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Here’s a bitter guy in his late 50′s–think disgruntled office worker a la Office Space.  This native Angeleno (license plate 4PD) in his shizzy red Ford Taurus blew through a stop sign a couple of blocks east of San Vicente onto Wilshire directly in front of the sedan you see cut off in the bottom right of this photo.  Hey jackass, we get it.  You don’t like rush hour.  Well, don’t make matters worse for everyone else–including your pathetic self–by causing an accident.  This impatient toolbag further solidified his asshole status when I saw him turn off of Wilshire towards the V.A. Center and nearly hit a kid on a bike.  Granted, the kid shouldn’t have been playing in the road with his friends, who were off to one side, but this sloping road is a straight shot off of Wilshire.  This guy had plenty of time to spot some kids playing in the street and to slow down.  I suppose he wanted to make a statement by getting his bumper as close to the kid as possible.  Smart call, moron.
