Wife thinks I'm losing the plot, but she doesn't ride...

I was driving back from Palmy to Wellington today and as I came into Paraparaumu past that boatshop before the bridge a scooter cut across oncoming traffic (SH1) with seconds to spare and rode the verge against oncoming traffic. I though "fuck this!" and hung left before the bridge to loop back around and give the rider a talking at. Just my luck that he passed in front of me as I came off the side street. I flashed my lights but saw he had no mirrors so tooted the horn. He turned around and saw me so I signalled to stop and pulled in front of him. He then pulled up beside my window and I then saw that he was only about 15 years old and was in a T shirt and skater shoes. The scooter had no front fairing, didn't appear to have a headlight and was dragging jumper leads on the road.

So crazy bit No.1 was that I barrelled the be-f*cking-jesus out of this kid. The reason was I asked if he had a license and he said "why?", so I let rip at the little c*nt about the way he was riding, the fact I was a rider and had my license, insurance, safety gear etc etc and that he should too or get the f*ck off the road. He told me I was crazy (so that's two people so far) and took off.

I was all set to leave it there, having impressed upon him my motherf*cking right wing views on his attitude. Then as he takes off he starts weaving all over the road before cutting across to the wrong side of a traffic island, narrowly avoiding being hit by a bus, and taking off back towards SH1. I ripped the phone off the windscreen mount and killed the NIN I was listening to and dialed Chuck Norris on *555. He wasn't there so I had to pass on the rego to this other dude while I followed the prick on the scooter down beside the railway tracks on a road parallel to SH1.

This is where crazy bit No.2 occurred as he saw I was following him and I thought "F*cken got ya" as the road ran out...but in true Smokey and the Bandit fashion he took a service track which cut up the side of the hill to the town reservior. Now I'm sure the little f*cker would have packed his nappies when he turned and saw a Toyota mother f*cken Surf pursuing him up this track. Sadly for me the track was only intended for quads and I couldn't get the surf around a switchback...had to reverse a hundred or so metres back down.

Soooo...the cops were too slow cos I couldn't give a decent location, I ran out of road, and the evil little bastard that costs you and I our ACC levies got away. So far I've got a count of two for saying I'm crazy. I'll need another few hundred saying the same thing before I start to listen.:angry:

A real Upper Hutt man would have reached back, grabbed the hunting rifle, and fired some 30/30 through the scooter engine block, disabling that bike for certain.

Dude, if you lose control you just plain lose. Chances are ripping around back streets, target fixation, steaming mad, attention totally taken off the actual task of driving, you were a bigger hazard than anything the kid coulda done.

Been there done it myself, when we were walking back to our car in a big shopping centre in Perth and noticed a guy standing next our HDT VK Commodore. He quickly jumped into a car next to it and drove off as we approached. Sure enough, the fucker had had a slide hammer and had just reefed out the driver's door lock on his way to stealing it. Blood boiling, I jumped in and we took off through the back streets looking for them, hoping to at least get a rego number. It was only when my my terrified missus pointed out that I'd look fuck'n stupid having an accident over a theft that didn't happen that I cooled it and stopped driving like an absolute dick.

Gotta stay in control mate or things will only escalate.

It's sad that there are so many who have become so disillusioned by society that they set about trying to convince themselves that they can happily live outside of society - even to the point of seemingly advocating anarchy.

It's even more sad when those people are old enough to know that anarchy doesn't work.

Only when we accept that the way forward for society is to start working together, instead assuming the "I'm all right, fuck you" attitude, will we see an improvement in that society.
