Try this out. Whenever you see someone driving like an idiot, call out the manufacturer. Do this any time you see someone turning turning from the driving lane when there's a turning lane, not paying any attention in general, anyone parked with the front of the car dead center while the tail of the car is in another spot, making a left hand turn from the inner turning lane and exiting the turn into the outside lane when there's a car there, or any number of other dumb and careless offenses.
My findings: about 85% of the offenders are in: minivans, Toyota products (including Lexus, but interestingly enough NOT Scions), Kias/Hyundais, Buicks, and small SUVs (Honda Pilot small). Yes, I know this is horribly unscientific for many reasons, but I find it incredible that 85% of the bad drivers drive maybe 30% of the cars on the road. This is especially funny to me because these are the cars that I generally consider the worst built and/or engineered on the market.
There's no science here, nothing conclusive. Maybe this only works in my area.
