I'm not sure about the number...but there's always a sign on the highways that tell you to dial it on your cell phones to report aggressive driving.
has anyone ever dialed it?

I would laugh my @ss off if someone calling that number got a ticket for using a cell phone while driving.

haha! i was thinking about that last night when the questioned came to me. It would be so funny.
Ohh yeah... well who would want to reach to both ends of the car to place another round? Going 65mph on NJ freeways can be a wee-bit "dangerous".. (OWW Michael Jackson)
I did that last night...cept it went from about 95mph to about 70mph to about 60mph in 55, 45 and a 40 zones respectively...the guy pulled some great moves but I knew a bunch of little tricks and stayed ahead of him most of the time...when he finally exited to a grocery store he honked and gave the thumbs up...that was fun
It's funny that you posted this thread, this morning on the way to delivering my little guy to school, I happened upon a stopped school bus with it's lights flashing (Picking up children), I was sitting there patiently (with several other cars behind me) when a city bus pulls out onto the other side of the road and passes all of us including the school bus.
This occured on a two lane road with two solid yellow stripes (No passing zone), after the school bus moved along, I caught up with the city bus and pulled over to write his tag number down, he does a U-Turn on the end of the road, pulls up to me and starts yelling at me "Your a Fing idiot, I didn't break the law", I ignored him and not only talked to a Police officer, but also called the transit company and filed a complaint.

Maybe you'll kill youself the next time you do it, that way, you won't have to subject others on the road to your stupidity.

Holy hell, what was he thinking? I got sideswiped by a bus some years ago. MINOR damage (about $100 to only the sideview mirror). The guy was cutting into my lane taknig his corner and din't realize that I had right of way. I was perfectly calm when I opened my window and this guy starts cursing at me! And he had passengers on the bus. I had every intention of forgetting about it until he started doing that, but I grabbed his bus number and promptly wrote a letter to the bus company explaining how it was my right of way and I was sure to quote him cursing and remind them that he had passengers on the bus when he did it. Needless to say I got my money and I imagine he got a stiff reprimand.

Moron.
End yourself.
Now.
yes we have *55 here its just cell phone 911 essentially
i think you get the highway patrol
anyways i was goin down I-40 and this guy nearly sideswipes me. that really pissed me off, but i didnt do anything
he finally passes me and hes up ahead of me, i see him swerve into the median and correct himself and come back on the highway.
after that, i said enough is enough and called that number, i reported either a guy that is drunk or too tired to be driving and needs to be off the road ASAP.
i dont know what happened after that, i had to exit not long after that ordeal.
im hoping they got to him before he killed someone.

You people are so sensitive...I signaled before all my passes and didn't cut anyone off...95 MPH on a 5 lane highway isn't very bad...I hear in california this is standard
By the way, cry me a river
