    4x4 pickup - hit and run - but not bike related

    Today 11am, at a roundabout near Albany shopping centre a big black 4x4 pick up truck with big wheels - probably a Toyota - for some reason it reversed hard while waiting to enter the roundabout - ?how stupid is that? - and smashed into my friend's car ... and immediately drove off. No injuries but badly shaken. The truck's plate was MNSTRR but the cops say it is a fake plate. Also, it had the number 666 - in large numerals - on the rear window. Surely - easy to spot.

    Let me know if you have seen this vehicle! But don't try to follow it as the guy must be mad.

    Expect an infringement from the Mod's ... non bike related stuff is supposed to be posted in the "Off Topic" forums ...

    Had a quick rummage - couldn't see an Off Topic forum - so posted it here. But I found it now ...

    It's called an infraction & unless Gremlin has his period I'd say you'll probably just get a warning.

    Is there any chance your friend was driving like an absolute cock prior to the ramming?

    Big words just confuse me .... end result is (usually) less severe than the "Proverbial" slap on the wrist with a wet bus ticket ...

    This IS a Bikers web site after all ...
