I'm glad this is your last comment because you've gone so far off topic and instigated a flame war in a thread which has nothing to do with the reason why you're pissed off at me in the first place. Hopefully this thread will clean itself up and we can discuss this situation which is very different from the other one.
Take your personal vendetta where it belongs. As far as I'm concerned you're the one acting like a 12 year old by starting flame wars where they don't belong.

Example: In Canada we have a program that anyone caught for DUI has their name published on websites, newspapers and so on so people are aware of DUI offenders. Of course the real purpose behind this is to embarras a DUI offender in public but it also exposes people with drinking problems who might not get help for their problems on their own.
Wouldn't the same thing work for dangerous drivers as well?

We were talking about a crime. You committed a crime that you even boasted about as if you were proud. You fail to see the irony in this?

This thread was hijacked a long time ago and has gone completly off-topic. Read the original post and tell me how this is relevant. Then go into the "other thread" and read the original post, you'll quickly see how half of the garbage in this thread belongs over there.

Posting the name of someone who was arrested is different than posting the license plate of their sister's car.

Raiyn, I concur. It could be as simple as getting the wrong plate number. Either way, we will not have that on the forums. It's not like someone would really be on the lookout for that plate, cyclists have enough to worry about already.

The guys on the Subaru forum that I visit would have turned this over to the local police along with your IP and any other information that would be valuable...

even if they find the car, the woner can say he wasn't driving unless somoene can ID him.
Similar thing happened to me and the ahole said "someone must have stolen the car, crashed it into me, then put it back in the lot"...long story short I sued him, he refused to pay, I have a lien on his house, but haven't seen a dime
