Ever had any repercussions from reporting bad driving?

[bosslady]

just as the title asks, have you? Just about to report bad driving for the second time in 2 weeks, before that I'd never done it in my life, feel like I'm more intolerant lately to impatient wankers (and wankettes). Reported some bird last week who tried to undertake me, there was only one lane! given the lane is wider than most, but not enough for 2 cars. Said driver then proceeded to tailgate me for another 200m, then when I gently put on the brakes as I was descending down a semi steep hill, saw her make some hand gestures in my rear view mirror, bitch got the middle one back! no reason for it, I'm not going to admit to speeding but she definitely had no reason for it, dick. Oh that was in my car btw. Today, on me Ginny, comin home, keeping good following distance, see ahead cars putting on their brakes so slow down to 40kmh, douche bag in a Subaru undertakes me and speeds past, couldn't find my horn fast enough! and wow, he got just one space in front of me. Probably not worth reporting, he was fully aware of what he was doing. But tis soooooooo easy on the internet! scared my bike is distinctive they'll find me and run me over haha

It,s a bit like pringles ad " once you pop you cannot stop. There are so many bad drivers out there that you would wear yourself thin(no, I didnt say you were fat). Sure report them if it warrants it, but when does it stop. You may just end up like the guy who had the dodgey driver dob in faceache page.

I think there was a thread on here about it somewhere. Sometimes you just have to let things go like that, otherwise you will find yourself looking for things to fault. Look for the good drivers instead, and you will see a lot more of them.

Kiwi driving standards are poor, no doubt about it. Unfortunately, the display of an L plate only makes them do more stupid things instead of giving the learner some space (cars or bikes etc). I suspect you'll find some of this will ease off when you move onto your restricted.

As for dobbing drivers in, my pet hate is running red lights and I'll report every one I can remember. Unfortunately, a few details are required, and odds are, I've forgotten them by the time I arrive somewhere at my destination.

Never had any response from reporting someone, but your details aren't handed out to the other party. Then again, I haven't known any of my reports to go any further than sometimes getting a confirmation email back, thanks for reporting, blah blah.

I don't know that it was cause of my L plate, maybe he just has size issues one day I'll get a loud bike that will OWN the road, LIKE A BOSS

I wonder why...

How about you just stop giving people the chance to under cut you.
Watch your mirrors at all times and block the cunts when ever you can.
I'm Sorry if this sounds harsh,but right now you sound like your fucking asking for it.
Drive aggressive/defensive all the time or your going to get run over.

And forget about dogging on people for bad driving,,,we all do it an the cops are just as likely to turn on you as they are to follow up on your complaint simply because they know we all do it.

Like you do know you fucked up both times,,,,,right ?

If people (different people) keep trying to undertake you, perhaps you first need to examine if you have indeed done everything right, or whether there is something in your riding/driving that may have contributed to the situation.

Haha sorry, didn't realise you were sitting in the passenger seat of my car the first time, or riding on the back of my Ginny the second time. Noted, next time I go on the road I'll keep veering left and right all over the show so no one can over or undertake me

Anyway yes, I digress, all my fault clearly, I should ride like an ASSHOLE, keep using my mirrors (even though I already regularly do so), I fucked up and I was "fucking asking for it" I don't know where I'd be without this insightful information, so thank you kindly.





p.s. do you own a Subaru?

Nope, genuinely I thought about it and no, no reason to undertake me, at least definitely not when I was driving my car, for sure, she was tailgating me and I was already speeding anyway. It's possible I'm to blame in the second instance but this guy was driving behind me for all of 50 metres or less, so not much to complain about.
