Our own worst enemy

A couple of knobs on harleys "havin a race" down morningside drive.
While I didn't mind them giving it a bit.....the biggest and ugliest knob obviously could not control his big bloated ltd ed flying sofa harley. Swerved into my lane.

You know what ran through my head when this knob was coming head on.....

This isn't my car (work wagon), its quite safe (focus), I am sure I could shunt him to his death rather than avoid getting hit.

When did I get so ticked off at morons that I would try and assist Darwin's law???? Possibly after the ACC proposal.

So be warned knobs - I imagine there is someone out there that is slightly crazier than I. So think of the restraint I had, I only had to do nothing - and that guy would be licking pavement. ME SWERVING SAVED HIS LIFE......

Ah but the point is a cage towing at 110 is already 20K/h over the limit, makes you wonder...

Yes you are right we are talking about bikers here, just pointing out silliness is not limited, it seems to be a human condition, or is it just kiwi, I would say human as all those camper drivers we see few of them would be local.

killing them is a bit drastic, but i get your point. why bikers seem to think it is everyone elses fault i will never understand.

And one of them drove near Porters for some way with rear left tyre shredding in the breeze, totally oblivious. Red Subaru in front of me must have been flashing him for ages. Kept going till he was on the rim!
