Absolutely no excuse. Crossing the centre line is just asking for it. That white line in the middle of the road isn't an advisory sign. It should be treated as an immutable law of physics.

Jim2 speaks truth. Any time you cross the centre line, you can consider yourself lucky to be subsequently alive. Particularly on a bike, but it applies to cages as well.

Crossing the line means that you're an absolutely shite rider/driver. You suck. You suck GOATS. There's not much more to it than that.

I never said I was a good driver.

Suck goats eh? Goatfood will be coming in here and giving you an ear bashing any time soon. I wonder if he does frequent 'goat' searches for any possible ribbings?

Do you get some kind of kick out of public humiliation, then?

Please tell me that the Mindset of Yoof hasn't degenerated to the point where its representatives somehow expect society to reward or applaud them for mediocrity and failure.

Getting drunk and beating the wife and kids isn't funny. Neither is, say, losing a job through incompetence, or crashing a succession of cages on the open road due to nothing more than stupidity. Nobody's laughing, either with or at you.

Why did you start this thread?

**riffer** · 18th October 2004, 20:26

Yep. Gotta agree with just about everything here.

Driving beyond either the conditions or capabilities of either yourself or your vehicle is stupid. Bragging about it is just childish.

I would not be impressed if I was on the road on my bike and you came across the centreline at me. In fact If you crashed in front of me I'd probably stop the bike and come over and beat you senseless with my helmet.

Surely as a motorcyclist you realise how senseless this kind of driving is?

Come on mate, we have to share the roads with you. Driving like a Brain Dead Cager is not gonna get you any friends or influence anyone here.

And also, talking as a parent, your sig line sucks. I sure hope you don't treat your kids that way.

Also talking as a parent, I wouldn't let this guy be in charge of a pram.

When i say over the center line, I mean one wheel, everyone does it. 90% of the time its ok. Im just the 10%. Anyways, I dont speed at 240kph because my dad would slap me round the ears, Im gonna be eating through a straw for about a week as soon as he gets home.

You say you dont cross the center line? What about going into the far lane when turning from the inside lane onto another street, everyone dose it.

The road is not much wider than my car.

And talking as a kid, it sucks

Nah, if you want Maddox, go search around his earlier stuff, plenty of less offensive stuff there... take the tabasco challenge for example!

Peace out (always wanted to say taht)

Speaking of which did anyone see that program on tv3 tonight (20/20 or something like)? At the end of it, it showed what was happing next week about the "now" generation - i.e. my generation. I myself was disgusted. How many of you wiser riders were smacked around a bit when you pissed off the old man? Look what fine examples you all turned out to be. On the show it had all these young punks saying "give me a top job now and top wage" this is a direct result as parents being over protective, how many parents let there kids play out side instead of with the old playstation? (BTW i'm the exception to this rule as I played on it and turned out fine but that’s only cause I get serve beatings to make up for staying inside it all works out in the end).

For instance, when I went to primary school this kid who lived next door was driven to school. Less than 10M and he was in a safety seat. All buckled up. At the time I thought there’s only one or two parents like that so it’s ok; being older and wiser now I can spot them everywhere. Kids on leads, skateboard helmets and pads. Hell even motorbike helmets (I wouldn’t go out without one on but I can remember a time when it was the norm not to were one.) How many kids have ridden a push bike with out a helmet? How many have jumped in the "deep pool"? How many have gone to bed and not brushed there teeth. HOW MANY? Too many.

Oh and btw as in mention to my siggy it’s just poking a bit of fun at the overprotective parent. I’m not a kid-beater-up kinda guy. They say sarcasm is the lowest form of humor, If you can’t get that.........

...I think I can gleen where you are coming from, when I miss a word here and there and take the tone out of your monologues.
I think the point people are trying to make now is that, yeah, we all make mistakes and some of us pay severley for it and then all brag about it to one degree or another.
But to openly go on about the choice to act like an idiot, because your mate said it's ok...when you've done the same thing before...gives you no excuse to drive like an idiot.
It's wet...so f'ing what! Drive slower.

I pretty well can guarantee that _almost_ everyone on this site has done something illegal and dangerous on the roads and because of this they have tried to learn from their mistakes and are trying to prevent more.

To sumarise:
Stay in school
Don't eat cereal with a fork
and don't drive like a f'kwit cos your mate says its ok.

And I am glad that you are ok and very glad that no one else got hurt.

Oh yeah...

Rolla's Rock!!!!!!!
