  • I was just about to back out of a gas station, the ASS**** pulls up to fill his tires and blocks me right in. Then he yells "Oops. Too bad you hadn't turned on your rear lights in time. I'm in a hurry, so you'll just have to wait." Then when he's finally finished, he drives off showing me the middle finger. I hope his boss reads this post and fires the self-important JERK.

  • This dumbass truck driver parked sideways across 3 parking stalls (all the bank's stalls for the non-disabled) in front of a bank to let HIS boyfriend run into the bank to get cash. The is while two other cars were going to park at those spots after the truck. Some people are just so inconsiderate.

  • Driving on the #1 in the passing lane, and yes I am passing vehicles. This red Hyundai comes racing up behind me and is right on my tail. I cannot move into the right lane because it's occupied. He signals to move into the right lane, but doesn't. (Was he trying to tell me to?) He remains right on my back end, way too close. I slow down a bit, hoping he'll get the hint and back off a bit, and also maybe I can get into the right lane and out of his speedy way. He flashes his high beams at me. By the time I can safely move into the right lane, he whips in instead. He pulls up beside me and I can see he's saying lovely things in my direction. Later down the highway, I see he's on the tail of another driver who's in the passing lane passing vehicles. Obviously they weren't speeding along fast enough for him either. He eventually whips around them too. He only slowed down farther up when there was a cop car on the side of the road having pulled someone over. I have an issue with drivers who believe the passing lane is an "I can speed as fast as I want so get out of my way now" lane. If I am passing vehicles in the right hand lane, I am allowed to be there. You don't have to tailgate for me to know you want to go faster. I will move into the right hand lane when I can. I am going to want to get out of your way before you eventually cause an accident. Get the hint, get off my ***!

  • I was in a school zone and doing the 30km/h posted limit. This Toureg was behind me and slowed down to 30 km/h. Near the end of the school zone the Toureg driver (who is also on the cell phone) suddenly sped up, changed lane and passed me before the end of the zone. I think she wanted to pass me quickly and then get back to the lane I was in, but there were cars in my lane that were stacked up behind a red light so the gap was too small for her to cut back. After the light turned green, she had to force her way back into my lane a few cars ahead of me. Some people are just so impatient.

  • June 18 2009 @ 8.35 am. Drizzling slightly. DVP southbound - south of 401. You cut across 2 lanes from curb to fast lane (which was only moving at 5 kms/hr - so goodness knows what you hoped to gain)and you nearly T-boned me. I had to move to the shoulder to avoid you. You then tried to hit me and screamed obscenities at me. You zipped around traffic like a maniac and at Lawrence Ave you came up beside me and screamed '2 can play at this you know'. Mister: You are either crazy, on bad medication or you need to change or wash the bag holding your drugs.

  • i was driving up Hwy #8 NB from the 401 near Fairway Road and was half-way thru changing lanes from the inside to the outside lane in my pickup truck - doing 120km/h or more so i was not slowing traffic. anywhooo, a white infinity with a lone male driver comes SCREAMING up behind me from my passenger-rear side and around to my left, and blocks my lange change by straddling the shoulder and the left lane, forcing me back into the right lane. he then continued to speed at > 140km/h up Hwy #8 past the Conestoga Expressway. it was sheer lunacy and aggressiveness that just smacked of ego and wanting to show off his sporty car. i hope this guy learns before he gets himself or someone else killed.

  • This vehicle was speeding and passing other vehicles in a school zone as if he/she didn't know the existence of the speed reduction.

  • Driver travelling southbound repeatedly drifted over the yellow line on Centre Street N. He/she was stopped in the left hand turn only lane at McKnight Blvd. Two cars were ahead, in the intersection. This truck was not in the intersection. The light turned amber, then red, and after that the driver proceeded into the intersection and drove straight through instead of turning left. Very dangerous.

    Spinning my wheels.   Wednesday, June 25, 2008

     I can't help but think what a waste of time it is posting plate numbers of bad drivers.

    I've posted on this site and after too many errors logging in, went to aother site, where I made several posts.

    Really, though, nobody cares.

    I bet someone files for me   Friday, May 02, 2008

     I have a hunch that my plate will end up in here one day. Why? I drive the speed limit. I actually STOP at Stop signs. I signal my turns. I obey the lights. And for lots of reasons--I don't want a ticket, sure; but the rules are for a reason and I am often in the car with my family. I drive safely to protect them more than anything. Can you imagine, "slow driver" will be what they say about mine :P

    Sorry.   Tuesday, April 08, 2008

    Sorry, but with the cost of:

    speeding tickets,

    insurance, and

    gasoline,

    I can no longer afford to speed.

    BREAKFAST, on the go!   Monday, April 07, 2008

     I saw a first today, a woman eating CEREAL in her car, while driving. Not a cereal bar. A BOWL of cereal, balanced on the steering wheel, spoon and all!
