Aggressive Riders

[Motu]

Me aggressive?..heh,heh,heh,not on bikes,but my cars often are a bit beat up looking...revenge is sweet.

Now dogs are a different story - I really hate dogs that come out and chase and bark at me when I'm on a bike.But I usualy ride dirt bikes - one little yappy mutt used to come out at me every morning...so I took to chasing him ,pretty soon he'd run home,well, I would chase him there too,all over the front lawn,nice big slides with my 4.00 18 knob.After a few days of this he decided he might just stay at home when the noisy bike went past.You don't even need a dirt bike - a certain German Shepard would come out of his kennel in the mornings as he heard a vehicle come down the gravel road,then stand by the gate ready to run out....but when he saw a lime green C50 coming down the road he would go back to his kennel.It's just a matter of training.

A boss of mine used to have a rotty that ate tyres on the back of harleys - while they were moving.... shame he owned a harley shop, really...

[Kickaha]

I WOnderr if jowsting stickes would worke ona motorbike ...

Been done before by some French nutters,only works against other bikes though.

I only ever give them car driving wankers the finger if they piss me off,this is pretty rare as I don't bother riding round town much

[aff-man]

Bloody guy did it to me yesterday he looks sees me a little behind him and then starts moving into me. I think he was blind. So i pull up next to him . shake my head and burn off(under the speed limit even). Sure enough 20 secs later i am just ho-humming as i go home and here he comes vroom vroom in his ute. Idiot

torque(sorry if i get this wrong) what is it about driving cars that makes you such arsehols???

[Ms Piggy]

I usually just shake my head and laugh at wankers on the road or give them a good glare! Yeah that will teach ya!! I decided it's not worth my while getting upset, I'd rather enjoy the ride.

I admit to kicking in a door or two, but loud pipes save lives.
And it is kinda risky if you piss off the wrong person who has nothing to loose by knocking you off

was driving home and saw a cage nearly drift into a rider, rider taps window, no bashing or anything, just a tap. and continues on. I watched the guy in the guy swerv to take the bike out. couldnt F%$ing beleive it. and then the driver tries to get through traffic to hunt him down. What a loser but the guy on the bike was lucky, the car missed him by about 30cm's.

Celtiic S Lilly has the right attitude. Don't let the bastard spoil your day.

At the end of the day you are more vulneable than the cage. Upset someone and they loose it...............just not worth the heavy shit if you go down.

Think right, ride right, stay upright. Them's the three R's

Auckland Taxi Drivers

[KATWYN]

My thoughts are...no matter how angry you feel at
bad drivers and want to hassel them back....They
are in the bigger vehicle- so count to ten and stay
calm

[marty]

I usually swear and glare, but I'm too damn slow to catch up to the offender generally to even consider swiping at their vehicle, the thing that annoys me most is when they are in the wrong and they shake their fist at you and beep the horn, it happens a lot here, people with zero driving skills and manners.
One time my son was riding his scooter a heavily tattoed guy in a huge valiant/or similar started beeping at him and pointing at the side of the road indicating that my boy should pull over, thinking something was wrong with his scooter, he pulled to the side of the road, the guy in the valiant, honked the horn and drove past laughing, he just wanted to get past my son who was riding at 50kms, my boy was furious, and had he been on his cbr I know he would have kicked the guys door in, two days later he was still fuming about it. I'm glad he was riding the scooter or he may have ended up getting severely beaten by the valiant driver had he kicked the door.

only a brave man kicks a valiant. they're real steel don'y you know

driving 280k a day i see my share of inconsiderate (and dickheads texting) drivers. 95k in the fast lane of the motorway, not passing trucks on the gordonton rd when there's plenty of room, or my personal 'favorite' - not dipping headlights when following. the other morning, a VY commodore that i had (nicely) passed, once he was about 1km behind me, flicked his lights onto high beam. i adjusted my mirrors, tapped the brakes to flash the brake lights (sometimes that works), and tried speeding up, but at 130k he was still behind me. i ended up stopping, u-turning, lights on high beam, waiting for him to go past, then u-turned and pulled in behind and flicked MY lights on him. made me feel a lot better. he took off at 160k, and i didn't see him again til he was parked on the roadside with a huntly night shift patrol unit, in the taupiri gorge. i tooted as i cruised past, and laughed all the way to work......

I'm sure that everyone at sometime has had a bad day, and then some wowser pulls out and just about knocks you off your bike, or does knock you off your bike.
Do you let it ride, or chase them and give them the ole "it's not like you use your mirrors anyway, so you don't need them." or the "character dents"?

I admit to bashing a few cars. And "hocking" on a car after she squirted me with her window cleaning crap in the eye. Well those are the ones I'm admitting too

If you've ridden bikes for any length of time you would know that "close calls" are part of the riding experience. Aggression won't solve anything, it may make you feel better at the end of the day, but if anything it will just make things worse and lead from a molehill into a mountain!

Personally I've never willfully damaged anyone else's vehicle in an accident situation or otherwise just because I may have been angry at them for what they did...I like to try my best to stay away from other vehicles on the road if at all possible and the best method on a bike is to keep in front of the traffic, especially on the open road.

how about stealth mounting a CO2 gas pistol inside the flaring.? or drop a bag of nails (over the top) in front of that cage?

or mount a squirt bottle of oil and give it a good squirt at their tires when they are stopped at the lights?



I sometimes wonder where will my imagination take me.

Now that we've ventured into the realms of gleeful folly, I recall a particular conspiracy theory surrounding princess diana death being caused by motorcycle mounted MI5 agent(s) blinding her driver with a strobe light - road safety aside - that'd be the way to go!

Attach a strobe to your pillion seat, pull in front of the errant driver and blind them! They couldn't see your number plate to identify you, and the roads would be safer for a few minutes while they stopped to regain their vision!
