Here’s a perfect example of why so many kids grow up in L.A. without learning how to drive with patience, courtesy, and respect for others and our traffic laws and regulations.  This mom was carpooling with 4 kids in the car whom [...]

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

With all this talk about Santa Barbara and Ventura, I thought it fitting to share this submission about Orange County.  Yes, it’s Orange County….not “The OC.”  You will never–ever–hear me say that.  Saying OC is fine, but THE OC?  Uh…no.  There’s enough [...]

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

When will L.A. drivers understand the concept of yielding and right-of-way? This is one of my biggest pet peeves about driving in this town. For example, i was driving up Coldwater on my way back from work, and this tool [...]

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 [...]

Wrong Right on Red

Idiocy Meter

Asshole Meter

See that old Mercedes in the photo? Well, apparently, this guy felt that stopping at a limit line about 25 feet from the intersection at this red light at Cahuenga East and Odin by the 101 Fwy meant that he could [...]
