Ok, keep your panties on. First, I heard on the radio today that the cops pulled over a car full of drunks. They all got out (unknown how many) and the cop had to ask them to get back in the vehicle. The driver refused. The cop had to pull his gun. He told the guy to get back in his vehicle. ...

The other day I was driving through a small city in Illinois, when I noticed a cop come out of a cross street through a red light. He turned in front of me to go the other way. Fortunately I know enough to recognize that if a cop is moving he is dangerous, so I avoided killing him. He then...

A BMW driver without any scruples. I hope this guy's drivers license and car disappears soon from the radar. He can be lucky not to have crashed into the opposite traffic at the on-ramp. Just ridiculous .... Greetings from Hansi http://www.jumpingpixels.com/bmw2.html

Near my house there is a two lane rural highway with wide shoulders, posted at 55 mph. Most drivers, when turning right into driveways orside streets, first move over to the shoulder and only then slow down and turn. However, some idiots do not use the shoulder at all when turning right, slowing...
