I came across this article in the Chronicle today:
The sight of a solo driver illegally zipping along in the carpool lane is enough to stir a desire for revenge in many a law-abiding motorist and conscientious carpooler.
Long-distance commuter Sean McIntyre said the last straw was an October day when he and his partner, David, were zipping along in the diamond lane. “We’re already doing 70 mph … and this guy comes whizzing up behind us, parks on my bumper and flashes his brights,” McIntyre said…
Suddenly, McIntyre thought of the perfect payback for carpool-lane scofflaws — more enduring and publicly humiliating than an angry hand gesture or a horn honk. He and David created www.CarPoolCheats.org — a Web site featuring photos of cheaters they have caught in the act on their digital camera.
Of course, I haven’t been able to get to their site today; it’s probably overloaded by visitors from the San Francisco Chronicle. But haven’t you always wanted to do something like this? Photograph the cars who barrel around corners, regardless of whether there are pedestrians there or not? The ones whose only handicap making them eligible for the handicapped space is a total lack of ethics?
The ones that always got me in LA were the ones who took the carpool-only lane (24/7, carpools only) and moved in and out over the double-yellow lines at will.
