Report a bad driver

[scumdog]

Down here a bit of 'local knowledge' makes a big difference, something you lose in the 'big smoke', we KNOW who is driving like a dick-head and pretty quick we have them in court (or over 100 demerits) and off the road as well as a good liklihood of their car being impounded.
Bless the redneck country!! :cool2:

Now on to Laphoraigh (sp)?

Yeah well I am guilty of on one occasion not reporting someone that I should have. Displayed both impatience poor judgement and horrendous overtaking manoevures in crazy places for over 40 kms.
Anyhow I am now wiser from my mistake. I can accept (generally) someone making a poor judgement (cos we are humanlike) as long as they look to take more care in their driving afterward, but this particular driver was just a "ferkin idget"

In the last few days I've seen a couple of examples of people just plain breaking the rules and driving like complete idiots at intersections. Normally I don't see much really bad driving, dunno why I've seen two in the last few days. One was coming up to the carrington rd intersection on New North rd going towards St Lukes. One car was stopped in the right turn lane, indicating to turn right, the light was green for traffic going straight through, but there was a red arrow for right turning traffic, and some nutter in front of me indicated right, moved into the right turn lane, then moved back into my lane driving around the stopped car and turned right in front of it, through the red light arrow!

And then yesterday at the roundabout by Rankin Ave and Clark st, by the bus stop and trainstation behind Lynnmall, I was going through it turning right from Rankin ave to Totara ave, and some idiot coming out of Totara ave did a right turn into the roundabout (going the wrong way around) straight across in front of me and proceeded into that short road that joins Gt North rd (maybe it's still Totara ave?). And the young lady in the passenger seat (well, she was probably somewhere near my age) had the nerve to pull the finger and swear at me for tooting at them...

What is the world coming to...

Now that I've read this thread I'll make more of an effort to remember their number plates
