If you notice some giant skid marks in the median on Kingwood Dr eastbound at the Green Oak intersection, those would be the handy work of the ***hole who blew through the red light (by using the turn lane to get around the stopped car in front of him!) and nearly took out my wife and two kids who (thankfully) had waited a beat or three before moving forward off of Green Oak to turn onto KW Dr westbound between approximately 6:15-6:30 this evening.  Partial license plate is 'FYY 54 (or 5) _ _'.  4-door pick up (wife is not sure of make/model), dark green or grey color.  He, of course, sped off once he got himself dislodged from the median.HPD has been contacted.  We don't expect them to do anything but if you happen to have seen this or happen to know anything about the driver please PM me.  We would just LOVE to give the cops more information about this guy.  I know this is a long shot but I have to try.  Thanks. 4951

Same intersection going westbound some idiot in a white (Impala?) uses the right turn lane and times the light just right to beat the stopped cars thru the intersection.  He doesn't turn right but goes straight in the right turn lane and then cuts left at the last second to get ahead of everyone and continue westbound on kw drive.  By the time you realize he's done it he is long gone.  I've seen him do it twice, usually in morning traffic.  Hit_Bull_Win_Stea, I'm glad your family is ok. 4951

I honestly don't think the cops can do anything legally to the driver except talk to them. I had a similar situation with some punk teenager crossing into Sonic while I was going south on WLH. I had to slam on my brakes and ended up inches from the Sonic sign with some scraped wheels. A worker there told the cop who the driver was. The cop told me all he could do is go by the teen's house and tell his parents to scare him, or get him in trouble with them. 4951

OMG I had no idea that this "using a turn lane at a stop light to get around cars in front" was a thing down here! But it happened to me last month at the light at North Park and Woodland Hills. The fool used the empty left turn lane to pass me as the light changes green (I was the first car in the left lane, at the red light.) Holly heLL it completely shocked me.So sorry for your wife and kids - grrrrrrr.... 4951

Sounds like it was the guy with a giant "U Turn Cross Fit" sticker on his back window. I see him all the time tailgating and weaving in and out of traffic on Kingwood drive. 4951

Throw a Go Pro up on your dash and get some footage.....if you have one, i know they aren't cheap.  Not sure what the police can do with it but it would help if/when this eventually causes an accident. 4951
