Right, that does it

[Calo]

I'm buying a water pistol tomorrow and filling it with brake fluid.

Today was the last straw. I was happily along the Great South Rd near Takanini when a carload of boyracer monkeys (who had been sitting behind me for a while) thought it would be funny to drive up right alongside me (on my left, all of about 1 ft away). I put my foot into this dickhead's door but as he was so close (couldn't get decent swing of the leg) and the fact that I was only wearing trainers, I doubt I caused any damage. :slap:

Funnily enough, this mirrored an incident I had on the same section of road only 1-2 months after I started riding in late 2004. It may be a nice wide stretch of road but the traffic flow is single file and pricks forcing their way into my lane like that completely blocks off a potential escape route, should I need to avoid a hazard etc., not to mention the fact that it's just downright arrogant bully-boy tactics.

Unfortunately, I didn't get the number plate today but I noticed the vehicle in question had a 'For Sale' sign in the rear window. A few blasts with blake fluid would've devalued that asshole's car quite nicely. A blast to the side of his face through the open window would've been poetic justice too.

I swear I'll be ready the next time some clown pulls a similar stunt...probably won't have to wait long

[T.I.E]

oh evil and clever i like it, will you be having a holster too?
but i like the idea brake fluid on the paint hmmmm.
super soaker time.

or have a smirky james bond box of tacs and empty em in front of him see those alloy tyres go down with a pop

[NotaGoth]

Memorize the number plate. Track them down. Pour it all over the car. Enjoy boys

[Waylander]

Ooh good idea. Got me a water gun that looks real too. That aught to put the shits up them.

Been there... know how you feel..........thought about this subject deeply for 20 odd years .....
The correct thing to do is take the number down,,,BUT as the tui ad says ,,,yeah right

A water pistol leaks,,,dribbles down where ever you leave it ,,,,AND doesnt get the effect one requires

THE MIRROR ( and bugger off quickly) approach works wonders....

drive on the right hand side knock on the window, window comes down ,,,,say POLITELY -insert abuse here- ( makes things worse ) then remove said mirror either by boot or gloved hand ( carefull Volvos are difficult,,,dont ask it hurt !!!)

then if you still have mirror throw it into car,,,,,,THEN bugger off real quick cos large amounts of DOO DOO is now hitting fan,

This method has been CYENTIFFIKALLY tested ....

Failing that and auto centre punch does wonders for windows * doesnt work with XP though !( nothing does )

Um... riiiight...
Just don't get run over when they retaliate with a side-swipe.

[Brian d marge]

trust me the mirror works..... ( It works on the manhood principle, the more expensive or work that has gone into the car the smaller the drivers err willy is ,,,So by belittling the size of his manhood or by removing appendages that it doesnt need or use ,,,you send a direct message.

It works ...8 years as a London DR ...

exactly what I was thinking...
they'll run into you if you be too bad to those types..

...8 years as a London DR ...

...and you're still here with us today ????

I live in Takanini, any idea what sort of boy racer car it was. I have had boy racers pull up along side me and beep horn, rev engine etc. It pissed me off big time when I had my L plate on. Thank god I now have my restricted and have taken the"Red flag" away from the bull.

[Cibby]

oh i like it,... to make things easier you could mount the previously mentioned weapon descreetly onto the front of the bike... someone else can figure out how..

my bf brought me spidi gloves for christmas, not only do they have hard knuckles for destroying wing mirrors, they also have two patches of this stuff that "caution - will remove paint"

nice of spidi to think of that.. scratch the paint all the way along before you take off the wing mirror.

This was a constant battle for me when riding the FZR thru East tamaki especially, and Howick. I tried a wing mirror job once on Te Irirangi Drive, and it invoked mass hysteria from the occupant of the Mitsi, and it was at that point, that I was grateful for 1000cc, and an indepth knowledge of the industrial area close by, that perhaps prevented me being knocked off by an angry cage driver.
If you are gonna inflict damage in retaliation, my advice is have some horses under you to allow you to move away quickly. Dont "mirror" a WRX whilst riding your VT250, unless you know you can get the hell out of there.

Why not get an old window washer pump, a small reservoir and a couple of discreetly placed, side facing, jets and stash them under your tail section somewhere. A little thumb trigger on the bars and hey presto just drive along side and let rip with the brake fluid.

They'd never even know.

$12.99 from repco, big yellow can called paint off or somthing, anyway its paint stripper in a conveient spray can, its lethal and you can see the paint staring to bubble as soon as you spray it on. Good for stripping paint or leaving messages on one's paint work.
