Dodgy drivers exposed on website
DOZENS of red-faced South Yorkshire motorists have had their car details posted on a road safety website which shames dodgy drivers.
Forty-six motorists from across the county will find their car registration details on betterdrivingplease.com after they were caught flouting road laws by vigilante motorists signed up to the popular website.
Twenty-nine of the acts of bad driving were reported in Sheffield, nine were spotted in Rotherham, eight in Doncaster, while no reports were posted in Barnsley.

One irate Rotherham motorist reported: "He was in the wrong lane, pulled in front of me, I had to brake to stop being involved in his accident. Used my horn to show the error of his ways - the educated buffoon gave me the finger (nice)."
A Sheffield motorist reported an encounter with an aggressive motorist on Prince of Wales Road, in Manor, Sheffield: "Verbal abuse and offensive threatening gestures from passenger for no reason, after which he sped off through a 30 zone."
Meanwhile, motorists in Doncaster have reported everything from out of date tax disks, to police allegedly driving at over 100mph in wet conditions and people jumping red lights.
