  • Interstate 10 eastbound at Mississippi mile marker 23.  This pickup truck comes up on me fast in the left lane right after I passed another car.  I tried to move over as soon as I saw it was safe but she started going to the right lane also even though I had my turn signal on.  So I start to go back left and see that she is going back to the left.  Then I decided to get out of her way as quickly as possible and went to the right lane.  As she went quickly by me her hand was up and there was no passenger.  I don't know if she was waving in regret or anger.  Then she tailgated other cars ahead.  My wife and kids were in the car with me so I don't appreciate that kind of impatient, dangerous, and rude driving around us.  This lady needs to slow down and be more careful.

  • This happened at Lakeland and 55.  I was at the red-light going towards Flowood.  Light turns green and I start to go.  However, atleast 4 people coming off of 55 decided their redlight means keep going.  I have to stop so I don't hit them and this moron blows their horn and gives me the bird.

So, they ran a redlight, honked their horn at me and gave me the bird.

  • I was traveling down the highway going 65-70 (limit is 65).  This guy pulls out right in front of me, I had to slow to 20mph so that I would not hit him.  Other lane was open, so it was not like he had to get in that lane.  Anyways, I then notice the guy is talking on the phone.  

I am so glad I don't have road rage....

  • Location: ACS rear parking lot.
Everyday this person parks their dented and crooked care over the line. This monkey does not realize that forces other drivers to park crooked and over the line as well to avoid being hit by them or someone else. The spaces are wide enough for you to park straight in the middle of the space allowing drivers enough room on both side to park. 

If you encounter this tag HQD-487 please beware, they may hit your vehicle while it parked.

  • Ellis Avenue Friday, February 6, 2009 4:50 in the afternoon. I am traveling down Ellis Avenue. This idot pulls in front of me cutting me off and forcing me to slam on my brakes. Thank God there was no one behind me and the other drivers headed south had enough room to stop or there would have a major accident. This fool was racing out of the grocery store parking lot across from the Dickies and Textbook rental stores. Please keep in mind this idot pulls out into traffic crossing 4 lanes. He didn't even sit in the turn lane. He didn't even acknowledge what he had done and just flew up Ellis Avevue running lights.

    Morons and Rain   Tuesday, February 17, 2009

    What is it with morons and rain that makes them drive recklessly? Please note it was raining in central MS (i.e. Jackson and neighboring cities) this morning. This bitch in a Blue-Gray Crysler Pacifica came flying up behind me on the on Ramp for Hwy 80 and I-220. It is dangerously wet outside and I cautiously take my time merging into  creeping traffic. Now, the speed limit on I-220 is 70 miles per hour.I was doing 65 ,the cow was trying to push me, but she was very unsuccessful. She got agry because I would not do 75-to 80 mph on interstate during a rainstorm. She flew past me in the left lain riding another vehicles butt. She really doesn't realize  had either one of us hit our brakes she would have completely smacked into us causing damage and injuries. But hey all the  fool was thinking about was speeing in the rain. I just hope and pray she made to her destination safely. Please beware of the Lady. Tag no. HRS -480 or 482.

    Weird Lady   Tuesday, February 10, 2009

    Everyone,

    I witnessed the oddest scene on Hwy. 49 South on Monday, February 9, 2009 @ 5:30 pm. Myself, along with two other drivers were driving minding our own business when a state trooper appears out of nowhere beind us. I have no idea what this woman was thinking when the trooper got behind her in the left lane. She almost hit the truck that was in the right lane in front of me. Had the driver of the truck not swerved, they would hit and the state trooper would have written a big ticket. Then when the trooper pulled the woman over, she cut the driver of the truck off once again in front of the state trooper. I honestly do not know what this woman was thinking. All she had to do was drive the speed limit and she would not be facing a hefty ticket from MHP. The trooper didn't have his lights while riding behind us until that woman's questionable driving behavior caused the trooper pull out his pen. I just hope he wasn't too hard on her. Who knows she may be one of those people that freak out everyone time they drive near law enforcement.

    Moronic drivers   Monday, February 09, 2009

    These incidents occur daily on Highways 49 and 80 and Interstates 20, 55 and 220.

    I truly  do not understand the drivers from Simpson and Hinds Counties. These people act as if they are the only ones on the Highways and Interstates of MS.  Yes, I know that all people from Simpson and Hinds Counties are not idots when it comes to driving. But the ones I have encountered make  me question their sanity daily  what idot granted them the priviledge to drive. These idots pull out in front of you, cutting you off like you are obligated to stop for them and excuse their wreckless behavior. Then, on top of that, after they pull out in front of you, they drive 30 miles under the speed limit holding up traffic in the morning and the evening. It's like they sit in waiting on their next victim to aggravate by driving stupid. I really do wonder how they obtained their licenses in the first place.

     

    BEWARE OF DRIVERS HINDS, SIMSON, AND RANKIN COUNTIES.

    AJ 663 route 6 Oxofrd   Friday, November 14, 2008

    On Nov 14 about 8:00 AM I was entering route 6 in Oxford. There was only one car AJ 663 was  approaching us on highway 6 and he was in the outer lane. I sped up to enter the road. However, he pulled over into my lane and he swiped us. He then accelerated and sped off.

    If the road the dirver is entering is free you are suppose to speed up so as to be able to merge with the flowing traffic  and those on the highway are suppose to slow down or move over.

    This could have been a very trgic accident.

    206 LMN: Absolutely Reckless   Saturday, September 27, 2008

     A driver of a white Ford Mustang, liscense plate 206 LMN, with the EXPIRED TAGS of August 08 was comming out of the parking lot of the China Buffet near the Pizza Hut and Walgreens over on Weathersby Road in Hattiesburg, MS. I feel there is no mistaking the disregard that he had for the existance of others on the road as just a mistake. He sped out in order to not only cut in front of me, but he nearly caused an accident with an old lady!

    I know I am far from a perfect driver, but I do not act like a road hog, endangering others, thinking that I have the right to get where I want to go, when I want to go like this ill behaved person did! I hope they catch him for driving on expired tags and persecute him for the fullest extent they can. Such arrogance on the road deserves to be punished!

    063 LMW jerk in SUV   Friday, January 11, 2008

     Shortly after 2 p.m. Central time 1/11/08 on Hardy Street in Hattiesburg, Miss. (where construction is ongoing) near 25th Ave and Hardy Street a Jeep driver TAG 063 LMW cut across the dangerous area coming from Walgreen's without seeing there was room, just plowed across hoping to cut in or intimidate or not caring about others.  There wasn't room but my kind spouse let 063 LMW in.  The jeep then proceeded through the traffic light and edged over two lanes, covering too much of two lanes so we could not proceed as we wished into the right lane/turn lane on Hardy Street near the university.  My spouse tooted just enough so that she would get into one lane or the other but the 063 LMW driver continued to block us off, including staying stopped apparently in the hope we would miss the next light.  The Jeep is too big for this driver and this driver is a total jerk as are too many Lamar County SUV drivers.  

    This town has too many drivers that are completely uncaring about human life and extremely discourteous.  I have to say when I am driving I don't often let SUV's cut in because the end result is always like this one:  if you do them a kind turn they try to do something ugly to you.  One has to consider oneself lucky when they don't hit you however.  I believe I have seen this 063 LMW do worse than this last time I drove in this area.

HEY IDIOTS IF YOU CAN'T THROUGH ON YOUR, DO NOT BLOCK TH REST OF US WHO ARE TRYING TO GET THROUGH THE INTERSECTION IN ONE PEACE.

    suburban driver backing up badly & on a cellphone   Wednesday, August 29, 2007

     966 LUB -- a white Lamar County sedan -- was on a cell phone backing up on campus by the USM library in Hattiesburg, Miss.  I thought she was going to hit a vehicle.  Fortunately she didn't.  She was at least going very slowly but needs to rethink her behavior.  A handicap tag hung from her inside mirror.  5:25 p.m.  8/29/07.

    Dangerous Jerk   Monday, August 06, 2007

    On August 5, 2007,9pm, my husband and I were traveling from Biloxi to Gulfport on Hwy 90 West. The four lane traffic was semi-heavy but drivers observed the 45 mph speed limit....EXCEPT for one jerk in a convertible with Mississippi tag 209 HWX. He thought he was special and continuously tailgated and flashed his lights. When he found the small opening he needed he zigzagged in and out from behind us and swerved back in front of us as we approached a red traffic light and while waiting for the light to change he proceded to give us the one finger salute. I don't know what he expected us to do as we were traveling in the slow lane and keeping up behind other drivers . I guess we were supposed to pull over for him to pass??? Anyway we just laughed and waited for the light to change and when it did this driver proceded to drive 5 miles an hour to hold us up. Well, we were not in a hurry so we just drove the 5mph and THAT MADE HIM MAD, TOO! So he then pulled over in a right turn lane and waited for us to come along side of him and proceded to scream at us and go on and on so we just left the idiot in the street. Look out for this HOTHEAD who has no business driving.

    Questionable Vehicles   Saturday, January 13, 2007

     

    Just how do they get away with it is beyond me. I have seen cars with headliners sagging so low the back window is covered. I remember about 7 years ago this Green station wagon parked in front of a Pharmacy. The driver had a household light switch including the box and plate cover on his dashboard. A wire went outside the door and under the hood. This light switch was for the headlights! He also had a coat hanger for an antenna.

    What is with the trash bags taped to the window with duct tape? Windows are not that hard to replace! I have replaced windshields myself on at least three different vehicles. Maintain your equipment people! The life you save may be mine.

    FYI that little doughnut tire is good for driving on for 50 miles. It is not a replacement tire.

    Do not get me started with the idiots on four wheelers! Especially Dip wads that fly across a busy road without any regard for traffic or safety. Four wheelers are for off road use.
