Oh man, this really pissed me off. :angry2:

I was on my way to my exam today going along at about 55 - 60 in a 50kph zone. I notice that this large American type ute is behind me and following quite close, so when it becomes safe to do so I moved over to the left so that the guy could pass me safely.

The asshole has plenty of room to pass me the moment I moved over, there were no other cars and the road was even 2 lanes at the time, what does this wanker do, he goes and passes at the LAST damn minute just as the two lanes merge into one! I had to break and swerve to avoid him side hitting me.

I gave him a one fingered salute :finger: , and the bastard even has the nerve to break once he is in front of me and show me the finger out his window.

This really pissed me off, just had to get it out.

Sounds like an everyday occurence anywhere in New Zealand to me. :whistle:

I've decided that while my bike is getting it's TLC, I've asked them to fit bull bars/nudge bars to my front end. So now if someone does that, I can just accelerate and give them a good shunt, and the finger of course. :headbang:

You've noticed that too huh. Holding a drivers licence in NZ seems to some people to mean that they own the road and have an excuse to behave like a 4 year old.

Are you saying my Pajero is small and insignificant?!! How dare you turd brain,I bought this vehicle to give me authority and respect - and if I don't get the respect I deserve on the road...well stuff you too! I make my own rules and do as I please - if you don't like it,then just stay out of my way!

Hell yeah, I managed to finish all the essays but only had 30 mins to finish unseen, getting only 2/3 of it done, bugger. When I first saw the questions I was like "Eh?! WTF?" but they were not too bad after a bit of thinking.

The pun was either on the words 'rotation' well thats what I put or 'collision' as in your friends case.

Wow, this thread really has taken a turn :mellow:

Not a good experience just before an exam. Hope it went ok though.

I don't usually give way to tail gaters - maybe it's my pig headedness & it may be risky but, I think 1 of the best peices of advice I was given when I 1st started riding was "Ride like you own the road." The advice giver wasn't meaning like an arrogant thoughtless twat, she was meaning use the whole road b/c I am as much a part of the traffic and has much right to be there as anyone else.

If someone thinks I'm going too slow in a 50k zone, when I'm going the speed limt, they can go get knotted. On the opoen road it's different though.

No it doesnt, and I wouldnt recommend saying that at the mo :innocent:

Gutted to hear about the tail-gater, pity we cant lob dynamite of other high explosive devises into the deck of those wankers and blow them off the road. :mad:

What really pisses me off is on the open road when you go into gravel and there are about 5, 30kph signs up, so being on a bike I slow down to the speed limit and there is always a wanker behind you that toots or follows really close with the intent to pass you. And that really pisses me off. I have no problems then just going down a gear and giving it a little gas with the hopes of sending a gravel storm to smash their windscreen and make them forever cower and know that bikers deserve more respect. :mad: :mad:

Ok, I guess I had my rant. I feel better now.

A very similar thing happened to me last week, on my beautiful blue VFR. (Did I mention I have a new bike? And that it's beautiful?) Anyway, I was riding down Onewa Road at lunchtime, in the right-hand lane (because there's always cars parked in the left lane during the day). Up ahead, there's one of those trucks with the big arrow indicating the left lane's blocked. To my left, and behind me, there's a black SS Commode ute. When he finally wakes up and sees the sign, just as I'm nearly by the truck, he speeds up, whacks his indicator on, and just manages to squeeze between the truck and me. But only because I braked very hard to avoid the tail of his ute. I was REALLY pissed off, so I tootled him vigorously. So he brakes, which is really stupid, because I'm still only about a metre from the rear of his ute. Fuckwit. I braked again, and barely managed to avoid a collision.:angry2:

Wish I'd been on some big mofo Harley...


Still makes me angry thinking about it. All he had to do was slow down or stop, and pull in behind me. Wanker.

At least I know it wasn't me - I'm too far away and I don't drive like that anyway PLUS I own a large American pick-up truck and not a UTE. :bleh:

They are an Aussie thing IMHO, ask a yank what a utility is and he'll point to the nearest electrical company, water dept. or whatever.

Cool, havent seen your bike around. Yea I have seen that wanker in the blue dodge or something isnt it. Wanker has something against bikes and is alweays out to piss you off if you are on one. I tried passing hi on the elevation and the wanker sat in the middle of both lanes and swerved to stop me passing. He fucking deserves to be :kick: I couldnt follow him either and piss him off cause I was late for work.

Piss him off when you see him. :brick: :2guns:

Dob the prick in!! He might take out somebody less experienced than you with those sort of "tricks", even he doesn't get 'done' the fact he has been pulled over might give him the message :mad:

I encountered one of those "gotta be in front" fuckers on the way out to Mount Bruce on Sunday. White Isuzu ute, crap mustache, and passing on yellow lines because he was desperate to be in front. (Not to mention pulling along side me and swerving to try and into my spot in traffic...)

It's a pity he didn't stop up top of the hill, because I was going to saunter over and ask, "2 inches? 3? Because you've gotta be compensating for something with driving like that!"

This male pulled out of a company/warehouse driveway straight in front of me this morning as I was toodling along the road.... He even had to cross to the other side of the road from where he was to do this.
I had to hang on all brakes to stop.... He never even looked.
I tooted long and hard at him and still he never looked up..... :eek5:

So then I decide to go past him and yelled "Oi you F**kwit" and gave him the universal finger...

Well he just about sh*t himself cos he didnt see me come up beside him... :bash:

So hopefully he will realise and start to look around him when he is driving.... :Pokey:

So this dude is "blind and deaf" and also driving a vehicle....
You have to wonder how some people get their license's.... must have won a raffle ticket...lol. :bash:

I like it when they look you in the eye and pull out infront of you at intersections.

My favorite thing to do, is get infront of them and do 30kms :D Keeping a close eye on them, so if they try to speed up and pass me.. I speed up so they can't they get the idea, that I'm very fucked off.

I skipped the "tootle him melodiously" and went straight to the "tootling with more vigour". No time to piss around.

Next would have been the shouting "Hi Hi" directly in his ear while vigorously "Hi Hi" -ing him in the groin, but he turned the corner after I followed him for a while.
I would've liked to have tootled him vigorously on the side of the head....:mad:

I dunno... I tend to try to avoid confrontation, but this was a deliberate and dangerous act, and I'm still pissed off about it. What's the point in me riding carefully and defensively, if there are people like this allowed on the road? :spudwhat:

That happens so often, its like they look to see the face of the person they might kill as a result of their bad driving.

"Hey, don't mind me, I'm just looking so I can see what you look like before I knock you over, you know? Before and after type of idea..."

that MOTU is one of the few people in Noo Zeeland who has a special "K" endorsement on his licence. This endorsement doesn't relate to wearing spectacles but he must sit on a cushion at all times when driving a motor vehicle, bloody dangerous looking through the steering wheel.

The only time he don't have to sit on the cushion is when he is doing his other job as a test driver for AFX slot cars.
