    Can't say I have ever had anyone pass on the left, but then I'm all over the road anyway, must put people off.

    coming back from town today following some bloke and his mrs in the car; Hes braking all over the shop so i backed off; He then decides to pull over on the right hand side and comes to a virtual stop AND THEN indicates?! I check over my shoulder to see if its clear to pull to the left but it aint; i turn back and hes taken off down the road again. When we pull up at the lights im beside the passengers door and i flip my visor and lean in the window and ask the fella if hes been drinking?

    I nearly fell off my bike when he turned around to me with his pommie accent and said nah mate, its the first time ive driven in Auckland!! I was just gonna ask him if they'd changed the laws in teh UK about indicating and safe manouvers when i thought fuk it.. i'll ask him if he needs directions. "Nah mate he says i know where im going!!!"

    IDJIOT! :eyepoke:

    Just got back from Kaiaua.... on the way thru the set of twisties just south of Kawakawa Bay, I (driving the cage) catch up with a cruiser of some type, going very, very slowly and still taking lines of someone travelling 3x the speed, I'm not joking. And NO it wasn't wet or greasy there.

    I MIGHT HAVE UNDERTOOK HIM as he straight lined the last bit of twisties going all of 30km/h. Only on Thursday, I made it easy for a couple of fast bikes to get past me there by letting them straightline the same kink!!

    DAMN CRAZY and inconsiderate - Gives all motorcyclists bad rep.

    Sorry, rant over...

    He wasn't driving a Corolla wagon was he? Sounds like the same moron that did that in Khyber Pass before Xmas.

    Same moronic driving, same excuse. He's been in the country at least 6 months, how long does the dickhead have to be here before he learns to drive?

    Good stuff. If this ever happens sounds like a good tactic to me. Just to add a question, if we did do this and the cops were called it would be his fault right? Or would we get in trouble for splitting?
