Здравствуйте. Подскажите, пожалуйста, как лучше перевести такое название. Ссылку пока не могу дать, но суть в том, что все нарушители, которые заезжают на тротуар, оказываются дамами. При указании на их нарушение ведут себя грубо и вызывающе.

'As wet as they come'


Explanation:
A couple of options (shots in the dark, really) based on the scanty context available:
Wet hens - as mad as they come (or as wet as they come however you want to look at it);
Never underestimate the power of a pissed off woman (or in your case 'pissed off women') would be another possibility;

Or, you could tweak the old saying about misfortunes and coin something along the lines of Angry women never come singly (since there's a whole stream of them, driving onto the sidewalk one after another).

And, Mikola, you've been here long enough to know that you can't really expect us to come up with a meaningful answer without seeing the video first (hence my low confidence level, btw)
