Last night (12 midnight) we had to pop onto the city to collect my daughter and her car as she was out past 10 and is on a learners license.
Driving thru the 80 km area when I was over taken by a guy doing about 4 million kph (or there about) then undertaking other cars in front of me - he was all over the road.
Anyhow we go under the Sunnynook bridge with a slight left hand bend. He was going so fast he could not make it - lost control from the lefthand lane 360'ed acros the right lane and hit the cheese cutters.
Im first cage there - get out and see that he is OK. He ask me for a towie not a cop because "Im over the limit Bro"
I explain "yeah right" call the cops - they arrived in about 4 mins and it turns out to be the local bike copper (he was in a cage but still had bike boots and tro').
Top bloke, really polite, chatted bikes and how the guy was going to be done for dangerous driving on top of no rego, no warrant, drunk driving etc.
For years I wanted to come across one of the wankers who drive like that in a ditch in front of me (not wishing them or any others physical harm obv.)
So last night was a top result!

Had a chase involving a local loser last night - got to see the resulting crash, nobody hurt but he won't drive THAT car again - and it will be an expensive visit to the judge on court day.
"I was just the passenger man, I haven't been drinking, it's just the BZP that's affecting me but anyway, I'm just taking the rap for the other guy" - Tuis moment here
Musta thought I was a drunk as he was.
Couldn't happen to a nicer piece of shit.

Good work getting people in that condition and driving like that off the road before they hurt somebody else. Well done!

Good onya Tank, one less moron on the road for a while.
Busy little stretch of road, that, last night. I was heading home at about 7ish and I assume there had been a crash in about the same place (although I didn't see it, just the police cars and the congestion afterwards).

Good on ya mate!
Hi 5 from me!
Everyone knows how I feel about this.
If you had called the towie, all you would've achieved is letting that twit know that you condone him driving and then crashing due to being over the limit, it makes me sick that he knew he was over his/the limit and drove anyway.
Lucky his only consequence was gettin busted.
But I wonder how long it will be before hes driving his one tonne weapon in that state again.
"One person can't do everything but everyone can do something." (can't remember whose quote that is but I like it...)

Dumb fucking asshole. I rode past that not long after it happend (Yellow SV650 - maybe OP saw me?). Saw an ambulance and fire truck rushing towards the scene.
What kind of a dumb shit does this? Asshole. I hate douchebags like this. Could have been another car or bike instead of the cheesecutter. What then?

Yep what then, riding your bike, nice scenery, car in front of you, drunk driver. 2 bikes tangled, 222 km impact. Smell of booze before getting to the car. Car engine on drivers knees steering wheel inside drivers chest, children in car screaming, man in two pieces - dead. Man alive and knowing all, dies. Woman dead. and what then doesnt stop there.
And in Scumdogs defence, how often does he see this. Must piss him off. Surely personal opinion is allowed outside of his job..
Please carry on and dont let this stop your thread. Cheers.

What pisses me off is the number of losers that will do just that... call a towie, or a loser mate, just to get his or her pissed arse out of there. Good on ya Tank.
Kind of inappropriate, but you do derserve one.:drinkup:

No. But if you were to tell me to go faster when I was already doing 130kph down the motorway , I would happily follow your instructions ("obeying the instructions of an enforcement officer " woot). It has happened!

Nope. Quite genuine. I was at the rear of a Westpak Helicopter charity ride. Doing about 130 down the motorway (cos things get stretched out and if you are at the rear and the front is doing 80 you need to do 130 to keep up). Looked in the mirror and there's a bike cop. Freak out, hit the brakes, and then see that he's waving me on. Speed up, wave faster, speed up, still waving. Finally settled in around 150 !
