7CIE244

Here's another one I see a lot of. At the poorly designed East L.A. interchange, where you always get people cutting in from the lane that exits to the 60 freeway (and isn't like it was a lane that was there the whole time, this lane picks up around a mile before), a fair percentage of the people making that violation end up getting off at the Soto Street exit. I usually don't bother documenting this activity because I can't get the plate. Well, today we had the driver of this Lexus, plate #7CIE244, who blocked both lanes sufficiently that I was able to get the plate on my low-rez camera!

6LGY285 & 7BOK172

Another 2 for 1. Here we've got one of those metered on ramps (which I think are pretty useless) with the left lane exempted for car pools. So what happens? First a BMW, then an Infinity (Nissan) that blatantly violate the car pool requirement. Of course, they've gotten around about five cars for breaking the law! Totally worth it. It runs a bit long at the end to show the Nissan trying to cut around the truck.

6PLU854 & 1UZ6--- Unified Grocers

What happens when you get a Lexus who won't yield a little room and a semi truck that won't use his mirrors? Here you go! I didn't get the full plate from the trailer, but it was from a company called Unified Grocers, who have their local branch in Commerce. Did take this screen capture of the cab, which has much numbers on it, but I didn't write any of that out.

I think if I were in the Lexus (6PLU854) I would be giving Unified Grocers a call!

5XSS015 & 5XNV252

This is heading up the 710 to the transition to the 10. Always ALWAYS people who want to go East staying in the Westbound lane (which is clearly marked way back) until the last minute then cutting over. This car was totally predictable, it's an Acura, and they have a USC alumnus license plate frame. Pretty much most Japanese "luxury" model (a rebadged Toyota, Honda, or Nissan) you can count on having a rude, inconsiderate or just plain bad driver, it seems.

So it start off with the cyclist heading up. I don't count them, but, dude, watch out for the Acura! Sure enough, 5XSS015 starts signalling late, and doesn't even make an attempt where there's plenty of room ahead of the truck where the bike gets over, but waits until way late. Bonus, right as he heads right, you get the Nissan 5XNV252 (don't get me started on Nissan drivers) who it looks like heads to the left side crossing over the solid white line (and then proceeded to drive really slow).
