July 19 - L.A. Idiot Pride Day?

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Wow, the idiots out today! Seriously, it boggles my mind why so many drivers just can’t grasp that others drivers share the road with them. I was coming back from a class I was taking in Beverly Hills, driving north [...]

One after Another - Ignoring Right Turn Only Lane

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Before we moved to our new home, there were times when I thought that maybe my perception of bad driving is Los Angeles is skewed because of how centrally located we were in the county. Truth be told, the area between [...]

Left Turn Only Lanes Are for Left Turns…ONLY

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Making stupid mistakes and forcing others to pay for them is a common occurrence on the streets of L.A. Case in point, the arrogant tool driving this van was driving south on Coldwater on my left. As you get deeper [...]

Signaling Left to Go Right, and More

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Here we go, yet another Prius driver who doesn’t have a clue about how to drive. I wish Angelenos will one day stop treating the Prius as an “image” car, because people here who tend to buy things because they’re trendy, [...]

Argumentative Clueless Crone

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Back in 2006 when I decided to create this blog, one of my colleagues at the time gave me this by Bruce Eric Kaplan. Since I have a story to share today that really typifies the synergy of L.A.’s idiotic and [...]

Clueless Aggressive Lady in Explorer Sport Trac

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

I first noticed this ugly, frizzy-haired, non-signaling biatch in her 40’s driving behind us in this Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT on Little Santa Monica when she attempted to get into the left turn only lane by Beverly Dr. ahead of us [...]

Yes, Texting Is Still Legal (Sorta)

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

So, I’m an idiot for not reading the FAQ of the new cell phone law more carefully. Upon more careful examination, it would appear that the information provided in a recent Daily News article is correct:
“While drivers can’t hold a phone [...]

No Cell Phones - But Dogs Are OK

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

So the much-anticipated hands-free cell phone laws go into effect today. Commercial vehicles are exempt from this law, which doesn’t bother me much since from my experience, the worst offenders of cell phone-related bad driving are non-commercial drivers. Even so, [...]

Beware of Lane-Splitting Mercedes

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

So this shot is a little close because it’s a submission. FYI, unless the photo is of a commercial vehicle, I have been legally advised to blur out license plates (until I get some privacy/first amendment lawyer to draft an argument [...]

Some Jerks Just Don’t Give a Crap

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

Pricks are really monopolizing the posts over these past few days.  Here’s a submission from someone who almost got T-boned by a 4Runner:
“This bearded asshole thinks that just because he’s driving a big ass Toyota 4Runner, he can assert his right-of-way wherever [...]
