    Hell the airhorns on the BM get a regular work out when riding around Auckland... it's probably just as well we aren't allowed CCW permits (concealed carry of a weapon) over here or there would be carnage on the motorway at times... with me speeding off and re-holstering at the same time.

    Passive behind the wheel............problem here is that sonding the horn over here just gets ya the finger.

    Pommie Heritage? must have lost the whinge then.....

    Feel the same way Lou. Kiwi's are so pathetic with the horn (shouldn't I rephrase that?? )

    It's embarrasing when the horn on the honda is better than the feeble horn on the holden

    I get pissed at anyone who gives more than a passing glance, your there to drive so fucking do it! if that guy had stopped in front of me i would have been hanging out of the window "sharing my feelings" on his poor driving etiquette

    I'm the same with people who don't pay attention at traffic lights, i was sitting behind some twat yesterday and the lights had been green for about 10secs before i told him about it and then the asshole gives me a dirty look?

    Cagers suck ass!!

    A friend of mine was injured in a car vs car collision last year and she was sitting in shock for a while watching other drivers go past, who were checking out the scene but not stopping to help....

    She's all healed up now though, and just got married!!

    Moral of this story, ride your bike and keep your eyes peeled for careless cage drivers, and use your horn whenever you damn well please
    Speed washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. Ramblings of an adrenalin junkie

    I followed a wanker boy racer doing 70 km down the fast lane.I held the horn on and initially he gave me the finger but after 50 seconds his bimbo must've started to abuse him,so he began to act flustered and pulled over.
    Gave his mirror a tap as I went past.

    The very best is when they slow to rubberneck and the incident is on the other side of the motorway
