Photo shoppers? I need your help to track down this lunatic driver..
Long story short I'm sitting at a red light that has a left turn lane ONLY that is to my left of course.
Light turns green I go straight.
I make it 100% of the way through the intersection, when all of a sudden there is a PRIUS hood at my drivers side window....GOING MY DIRECTION!!! Scared the **** out of me! The car is on the wrong side of a busy road (1pm on a Friday)...
I lay on the horn and slow down to let in this lunatic.
The person gets infront of me.......and what to do I see???
How's my driving?? on her bumper!! It has a website (which I can probably figure out) on it!! I start to smile.
The light infront of us turns red, it is red for at least a full second before we get to it......My window is down and I'm mouthing the words "I'm going to report you"
She says something back that I have no idea what it was and she ran the red light. She then got onto the highway.
Well guess what, 95 always has traffic after 11am on Friday's. I had NO PROBLEM catching up to her.
Here's the pic I got (we were actually moving and I was holding up the center lane by snapping this, I didn't want to be too much of a **** and slow others down so I kept going).

Can anyone enhance this to get the website off the sticker?
Here's a diagram that is an accurate depiction of where things happened. She got in my lane JUST as we got to the train bridge.
It's a city owned car.

When I was in this situation, I made the left turn because it was my own fault that I ended up in the wrong lane. She should have done the same.
She put my life and people in the oncoming lanes lives in danger. She needs to be removed from the road for a while.
I found the website. http://fleet.ct.gov/fleetpublic/FleetComments.aspx
And sent my story + the pictures to them. I'll give them a week to get in touch, but there is NO WAY this should go unchecked.

Ha, love the schematics and the time you've invested in this. Unfortunately, the "enhance" feature is pretty much something out of movies like Clear and Present Danger or TV shows like Law and Order or CSI. In reality, an image will only be as detailed as the maximum resolution it was originally captured at, regardless of whatever image interpolation software you might be working with. While drivers like this woman **** me off to no end as well, I agree with SB350 and CTlex7 that you really should just let this one go. However, I live in LA and outrageous drivers like this are a dime a dozen, so I know it might give you some satisfaction to try and report this. If it bothers you that much and you know it's a city-owned vehicle, why not take this photo to your local city hall and try to do some investigative work there? I tried blowing it up in Photoshop for you. Judging by the color, it seems like a Connecticut plate, so maybe this vehicle is indeed local for your county. It appears that the license plate, after the Municipal Logo reads either 5-7369 or 5-T569. Sorry nothing more can be done to decipher the bumper sticker.

I dont know how you peeps can NOT report something like this.

I have the high res pic right there and already sent off a complaint.
This woman should not be driving the roads. All she had to do was make a LEFT since she was in a left turn lane and then go around and get on the highway from the other direction.
I saw someone pull a UTURN in the middle of an intersection today on Route 1 in greenwich...... Talk about idiot.

I think you need to let this go too. Life is not easy , maybe she was on the edge of getting fired.... No offense I think someone need to get a life and get over this. You make it sound like, you saw a street race for the first time of your life, and woahhh your life was in danger. Well your okay and it wasn't as bad as a street race.

I don't understand why all these posters are chiming just to tell the OP to get over it. He has a photo and the perpetrator has a "How's my driving?" sticker. Why wouldn't you report her? Maybe by reporting her she'll learn her lesson and start driving safely, preventing her from causing an accident and possibly killing someone.
