    Making a complaint?

    Hello all

    I would like advice on how to go about making a complaint. I was taking a nice wee ride in Howick this morning and I turned right at the roundabout (it had just finished raining) to go down Picton Street. I'm taking it nice and handy as I know the road well and cars are always pulling out from parked positions and it being 11 o'clock on a Sunday .....
    Crazy bint behind me starts beeping her horn and proceeds to overtake me....I speed up to stay out of her way, but she beat me to it and turns in on me......just missing me by inches.....I beep at her and try to overtake her (and see if shes pissed) but she swerves at me......so I hold back and follow her.
    It turns out she was in a mad rush to plant an "open house" sign down the road. I get off my bike and ask her "what the fuck are you doing" she replies "You were going too slow" , "You should have moved over to the left".....After I picked my jaw off the ground I told her she missed me twice by inches, she could not have given a flying fuck...
    Anyway she pisses off, and I take down her reg. and moble number (the stupid bitch pulled up outside one of her own Realtor signs, with various contact details and a hideous mugshot) I will not name her but if you live in Howick/Pakauranga area and read the local paper, she is in the Real Estate section and she is the spitting image of The Joker from the early Batman movie.
    I didn't find a witness as it was pretty early and no one was around, I hope she has "previous" as she looks like a bit of a soak. I'll be going to the cop shop after work tomorrow.

    Any advice would be greatful

    Cheers.....

    I would have thought ringing *555 would be the best way to deal with it if you were wanting immediate action .......

    Rip out her open home sign and chuck it away. Keep doing this for a month or two. At the very least you might feel a little better.

    But seriously....... Next time just hold back and let her go. Saves you stress and danger and you'll be a happier and bigger person for it. Only you can control the way you react to this sort of thing.

    Sure,but take it with a pinch of salt.
    I will presume you are new to motorcycling.
    Why did you speed up when the car went to overtake ?
    Why did you then try to overtake the same car after it had overtaken you ?.

    One case (or two here) of bad driving does not justify the same bad driving in return.
    Keep it up and you will end up in hospital or worse.

    Make a complaint to the Realtor but from what i read it was bad driving/judgement on both sides.
    You could have simply let the car go by,muttered under your breathe and carried on your way.

    Everyone makes bad calls at some stage (including myself) but you need to learn from them (even if it is thought to be unfair)

    Steal or deface all her signs (that will cost her),

    Get your wife / g/friend and get her to make an appointment to view house.

    Get her to gush that she loves it. Get her to get the Realtor all excited - they are really struggling for $$$ at the moment - so that will get her all happy, happy, happy.

    Get girlfriend to say "I think Ill put in an offer" I just want to have my boyfriend to see it.

    You go to the next appointment and say that you refuse to deal with her.

    Walk away listening to her sobbing.

    result!

    Too late to ring *555 just go into a cop shop and fill out a complaint, she will get a letter in the mail telling her she is a stupid bhatch
