I Can See You Clearly - Yes, I Am Driving Straight At You With My Lights On High Beam.

What is with people having to prove just how tiny their appendages are? FFS!

I wonder what was going through this dick heads mind tonight when he actually turned his headlights onto high beam and proceeded to drive straight towards me, passing just a few centimetres to the right of my mirror.

I was quietly filtering past a very slow, stopped at times queue of cars. There was no traffic coming the other way. It is a wide laned road with parking shoulders provided so a very safe place to pootle along passing cars. This idiot turns the corner and spots me minding my own business, just over the centre line indicating my intention to overtake. He turns his lights on, then selects high beam, puts his foot down and proceeds to start driving very close to the centre line heading straight for me.

Now, I dont seem to have any problems with the traffic I regularly filter past, they are considerate, as am I, and accomodate me getting back into the flow with no issues, but this plonker obviously does not like bikers.

Must be the day for it I guess, sad thing to experience.

He must have an inny I reckon

Mom, you seem to always be harping on about incidents that you get involved with on the road. I drive/ride about 600km a week and don't think I have had a tenth of the negative experiences that you seem to be experiencing. Do you drive/ride 6000 km a week or are you are trouble magnet?... or are you routinely making mountains out of molehills??

Yeah, and I would've pulled out my 50 cal and nailed him there and then.

And maybe I'd then wake up and take my hand off it.

Seems some folk manage to attract nutters.

I had something similar this afternoon while overtaking. The oncoming car was still about 100m away as I pulled in but he obviously took exception and gave me the "sign". Road rage is becoming more common and some people feel the need to "teach you a lesson" somewhat unnecessarily if they were a bit more relaxed.

To the poster who suggested kicking his mirror, you hsven't thought about it as all that would happen is that Mom would come off very badly.

Yeah ouch! I could just imagine how it would feel to have my hand collide into a wing mirror with a combined speed of around 100km/h.

No thanks. Haha.

Yes! I did exactly that to a Hilux surf wing mirror as I was overtaking it (Prolly only a 15 to 20 kph difference in speed added to my swing) and I just about lost it.

Fuck, now I feel compelled to explain my lunacy.

I knew the driver and had previously had words with him (three or four weeks earlier) about his shit attitude and what he could expect from me (after he had been boasting to people that he hates bikers and likes to close the gap up on lane splitters). The fucker attempted to close me out as I was about to lane split past him. Fortunately the car next to him swerved as he moved over and I shot the gap and reached out to bust his mirror for him as I went by (had told him I'd dent his roof but it was too far to reach).

I saw him about a month later (in a delicate environment) and he denied all knowledge of it. A pointless and gutless lie as his advertising was all over his wagon. (project management, forensic accounting, quantity surveyor and a whole bunch of other crap written all over it)... Pfffffffffft

That was a few years ago now

I can't remeber the exact wattage we have hanging off the pesky esky
but given thats four hellas plus the hella inserts where the orignals were
plus the two cross beams ( mounted under the lower hella at fourty five )
( so when sideways into a corner theres atleast one light on the road )

needless to say its pretty bright...

Mrs rich bitch in her Blue merc, reg 02MERC
objected to me filtering this evening on the ride home,
Filtering up to the lights at the 10-15kph I do each night,
Pulled up at the line beside her, a good meter between her and I and the same on my right.
Four lane road 4.30pm traffic,
""Oi you:, she yelled at me" you not meant to do that""
She pulled her car forward to be beside me, in doing so , her car was over the line and in the flow of the crossing traffic.
"oh, you have a problem with me lady""
""your meant to be behind me, in the line of traffic"" she said,
"" oh sorry, " i replied
At this point she decided to turn her car towards me, attempting to dive into me!!
"W T F...Lady get real" I yelled at her.
She continued to creep towards me so I lifted my left boot, and calmly removed her right mirror.
The light change green, with a quick check to ensure no red lighters were coming, Im off.
Behind me I could hear this Merc revving hard, and the woman yelling out her window.
Fortunately, the two lanes of traffic were banked up a short distance ahead of me,
thus I was able to slip between two vehicles waiting at the next set of lights.
Having placed a ""shield"" between me an this aggressive lady. I took note of her very easy to remember plate.
Then I filtered up to the next set of lights, again at 10- 15 kph.
Continuing my normal, sedate pootle home filtering as I went.
I can understand a person getting annoyed and voicing thier opinion at the lights,
But there was no need to deliberately try to ram me.
Shame her expensive Merc convertible Reg 02MERC is now minus a right side mirror,
Sorry lady, my boot did not see you ....

happens to me all the time

Usually by Dickheads riding harleys who arent satisfied with perforating everyones eardrums with their fuck off loud drainpipe exhausts,they think its cool to burn everyones retinas out by leaving their headlights on high beam as well.

Great PR from the adults that were ignored as children
