JULY 12, 2007 @ 1:34 pm - SB 405 Fwy and 710 Fwy

Here's a Highway A-hole we will see a lot of in the future. It's that moron who feels so superior to be commuting with the rest of us, he's thinks he's obliged to ignore the law.

In this case, it's a late 1980's Dodge Sonoma truck, dark green in color with the complete CA license plate number of 5T20280. Driving beyond 75 MPH and in the fast lane, he enters the HOV car pool lane as a single driver. On this freeway, a car in the HOV lane must have two or more people in it, or else it's a hefty fine. He must have had a turd in his pocket because he was most definitely the only one in the truck I could see.

He continues to drive fast and tailgate upon others that happen to be driving at a slightly slower pace in the same lane. Rather than just accept the fact he will have to drive 3-5 MPH slower, he rides up on the drivers ahead of him and flashes his high beam headlamps in an attempt to get the slightly slower traffic out of the carpool lane to let him pass. His antics work on some drivers, not so much with others.

What a douche-bag. I wish there were more CHP cruisers on this freeway this time of day. A year of so there were, but you rarely see them now outside of being parked at the Carson Truck Weigh Station N of the 405 and Avalon off-ramps.

Look Eduardo, just because you drive a brand new, dark charcoal grey, 2007 Range Rover and have Consulate issued license plates doesn't mean you have the right to cut in and out of the carpool lane double yellow lines. That constant in/out/in/out maneuvering all the way to Wilshire Blvd off-ramp you were doing served no purpose other than causing those you were cutting in front of to slam on their brakes, which affects all those others who were following the law by not crossing double yellow lines and driving in a courteous fashion. I still beat you to the EB 10 connector where you peeled off, and I didn't have to break the law to do it.
