Wanting to kick the door in...

[slofox]

I rarely get totally wound up about cage drivers - had enough stress in my life and would like a gentle final chapter...

But this morning, for the first time ever, I wanted to kick a car door in. In the line of cars at the lights, no splitting, just waiting in line...we all move off and some stupid old bitch decides she doesn't have to be behind this motorbike, so jumps into the RH lane, moves up beside me and then just pulls left...straight at me. Eyes resolutely glued straight ahead. "If I ignore him, he'll disappear"...yeah, granny, under your fucking wheels. Fuckin' old cow. Blasted her with the Stebel but no reaction. Stop behind her at the next lights - oh so tempting to pull alongside and glare - or boot that door. But I restrained the violence and just got as close as possible. Eventually she checks the rear view and I give her the glare and the Chinese Good Luck sign...I should've taken her rego, found out where she lived and dropped fish-heads in her letterbox.

Rant over, as you were.

A person who should not be driving did much the same to me in Kerikeri. In a slow moving line of traffic I was to the right of centre in my lane so I could see & be seen when a relic in a dark blue Camry pushed along side me with mm to spare. Her window was open & I felt guilty about my Saxon tirade afterwards but what was going through that dottled little mind I wonder?
I should have seen her in my mirror too but I had never been undertaken at 20kmh before.

It is. ACC classify it as "motorcyclist partially at fault"

Thats too funny mate........:Oops:

We were talking about this issue over the weekend and some old cow with an upside down smile said '' bloody motorbikes are bastards, every weekday morning on the NorthWestern about 6 of them zoom past in rush hour traffic without a care to anyone including themsleves, I could quite easy pull out and hit anyone of them''.....I dont think that she ment she would do it on purpose but it sounded malicious.......lane splitting eh, who would have thought?

Well done for raging on the inside. I think that's the most incredible part of it - the ole:
If I don't look at you you're not there.

Fuck that pisses me off. Theres no way its the bikers fault for not being seen. The cager is the one that didnt look properly. Its like shooting dead a hunter and saying its his fault because he looked like a deer

Got half undertaken in Christchurch the other day by a brand new shiney black something rather upmarket job.....
Car was only inches away from my saddlebags, aggressively pushing on....
Looked over my shoulder with dirty "eyes can kill" sort of look, only to see a 30ish suited up male from a rice favouring part of the world very busy pretending I wasn't there at all......
He was probably driving in a way that is acceptable in busy motorbike infested cities elswhere.......
When I had to slow down in and with the que, and lifted my boot to re-arrange some of his shiny front lighting setup...he all of a sudden remembered some roadcode basics, and hit the brakes.....
Hopefully spilling some of the coffee or noodles or whatever he was slurping on...

[Fatt Max]

Mate, nasty business,

Shame about the biddy, next time you see her, ask her to remove her ugg boots and show you her titties.....

I just love the suited (I wear one but aint full of myself) BMW, Merc drivers who are full of self importance. Drive aggressively, accelerating to pull into half gaps in front of everyone. Running orange going red lights... grrr :angry2:... funny how your guy learned his road rules when he realised you dont play his way. Nice move and you didnt even hurt his car, nice positive to end on ;)

If you have the presence of mind, next time she is pulling over to kill you, try knocking on her window.

Be careful about kicking doors. You'll end up like this poor bastard:

Millionaire accused of kicking car

Millionaire businessman Sam Kelt has been charged with disorderly behaviour after allegedly kicking a boy racer's car in Hastings on Monday.

Kelt, 46, told the Dominion Post the driver had been attempting to run him down and he was astonished to be prosecuted by police.

He said a group of seven vehicles had sped past him around 10pm. As he crossed the road, headed for McDonald's, another car appeared and veered towards him.

"I had to jump out of the way to avoid being hit. It did a U-turn then came back toward me and veered at me again. Instinctively, and in self defence, I kicked it. That should tell you how close it was to me. It was incredibly dangerous."

Kelt will appear in Hastings District Court in December.

In 2006 Kelt suffered a fractured skull and eyesocket after being punched and kicked by a boy racer in Mt Maunganui.

He had stepped in front of the attacker's car to protest late night street racing.

Sigh, NZ justice system really is useless, pity the environment is so good, yet the people who run it are just so dumb. Hmm, so do taking down regos work? or the police dont care?

[p.dath]

Just makes you want to give up on the Justice system doesn't.

Programming my gps, adjusting the electric window blinds, even testing to see if the cruise control cancels if I open a door while moving... realising how to operate the lumber support while changing lanes... the last thing I need is a bike being in my blind spot - you know the bit of the world behind right in front of me. :whistle:

When preforming a mirrorectomy on a errant cage it is best to use a downward strike with your fist:Oops:
Trying to boot it while your moving may cause you to lose balance :whistle:
