A neighbor's son is with the State Patrol. Last Saturday we had a BBQ and
during the evening I asked about traffic violators in general. Sgt. B told me in his opinion the worst drivers were young, white females. 2nd were young black males, 3rd were "soccer moms". A surprise was that he felt that the most courteous drivers were older black males. I wonder if other law enforcement on this site have opinions about their areas? |

Young black males are the worst LLBs on the road, imho. White airhead chicks + SUVs + cell phones = very dangerous. One such bitch killed a cyclist here recently. |

My theory is that Jose in his '65 Chebby Lowrider is driving slowly because he's on his way to work and wants to delay getting there as long as possible. |

Blacks also make up a smaller percentage of the population in most areas of the west coast compared with the east coast. I'm not sure if it's cause more Asian and Hispanic immigrants stayed where they landed or something else. In San Diego usually the worst drivers I notice have children in the car, and a cell phone on the ear. Race, gender, and age don't matter if those criteria are met. Dave |

I'm surprised young white males didn't get a mention - there are some pretty horrendous ones out there - perhaps young black males are worse, but I do see more young white males, simply because there are more of them, especially in the parts of town I usually find myself in. > A surprise was that he felt that >the most courteous drivers were older black males.

But the 'old black men' thing boggles me... 'old black men' are like most 'old' people in general. Driving cluelessly well under the speed of traffic. |

Around here (central Texas) I'd say the worst drivers a 1. Soccer moms (cell phones stuck to the ear, kid yelling in their ear, LLBing, changing lanes at the last minute because of the distractions they already have going on. Then they give you the worst ration of s%&t when you stop them for it because they're so distracted they don't realize that their driving sucks). 2. Hispanics without licenses or insurance (all over the place around here since we're so close to Mexico. They get their cars towed and they get to walk). The most courteous are older Black males, but the most rude are younger Black males. -- --- jaybird --- I am not the cause of your problems. My actions are the result of your actions.
