Car stopping in the middle of the road for fun

**Steve 555** · 2nd August 2009, 14:25

A couple of weeks ago I was was riding home from work following a car down waihiroad. Was not following very close when he decided it would be a good idea to brake in the middle of the road. Now at first I thought something had come out in front of him. The whole think caught me unaweares so I grabed a hand full of front break. Luckly the ginny doesn't have brembo brakes because it would have flipped me over the handle bars. After the incident I saw them in there rear view mirror laughing away to themselves. Then they decided they would try it again. I could not belevie people could be so stupid. If I was following close I could kinda understand but these to guys where just having a laugh. Don'think it would have been funny if I came off.

Best advice: Give such wankers a really W I D E berth.

Used spark plugs are cheaper.

Yeah that's pretty bad. +1 to YellowDog, give them a wide berth. Nothing you can do about it. And if you try to do something about it you'll end up getting more frustrated because nothing happens.

I just get right away from shit like that.

A few years ago on the Akaroa Hill I rounded a corner to find a camper-van stopped dead centre of the road so the occupants could take photos of the wonderful view
