Who's in the wrong?

Morning,

Had an scary moment this morning on the way to work.

Did you miss out on MacDonalds breakfast menu?

Youre not supposed to change lanes across any solid white lines, only dashed ones. You will also notice that at controlled intersections, the dashed line changes to solid for the last 30m odd. No changing there either!

That said, this is a seldom obeyed rule methinks.

As for flush medians - youre allowed to travel on them for a maxuimum of 30m, and only if intending to turn right - or turning out of a side road.

[Ixion]

But all medians have solid white lines?

[dawnrazor]

I hate cagers doing U turns, they scary the shit out of me.

The thing is, 'cus they know they are illegal they do them REAL fast to get them over with, without a cop seeing them or something - thats the shit that will catch you out and give you no chance of reacting in time.

Nice save though, walk away is always good - you'll ache later though from the effort i bet.

Safer to travel on the medians at rush hour. Damn I hate rush hour.

[The_Dover]

Damn I hate rush hour.

Rush Hour 2 was pretty cool though.

I like Jackie Chan. He's pretty funny for a zipperhead.

overtaking on flush media or using unavailable lane to overtake - take your pick.

but following on from the cyclists caused the crash thread - it wasn't your fault. blame it on someone else. it's all the rage.

I'm not playing innocent here at all, I realise that it was at least half my fault, but was wondering what the public conception of this is...

[Bloody Mad Woman (BMW)]

I'm inclined to agree with mynemisis. I'm normally into honesty but I know I have been riding on a median at times to get pass traffic - not travelling fast (felt I better add that after my recent bin) and at times have pretended I'm switching over to reserve!

Had an incident in a cage in a car park where technically I think I was in the wrong but a car pranged into me and I said they were travelling at such a speed that when an obstacle presented itself they could not stop in time!

Ripping a uee and not indicating is really the more serious offence here I believe.
that's my tuppence worth! lol

.... Not being sad or racist but he was Asian. Sorry to the fellow good Asian riders and drivers out there but some give you guys a bad name...

And so if you were not being racist, what's the point of the "asian" statement? Pretty dumb saying you're not being rasict and then making a statement with clear racial indications.

You a whitey then? What has that to do with it? People of all races drive like dicks. I got shoved off the road by a white/maori/p.i./indian/chinese guy. What's the difference?

Asian... pffft... that's half the world!! It's such a broad generalisation it's not funny! There are Chinese, Japanese, Indians, Malays, Thai, Khmer, Islanders etc, and that's just the MAJOR people groups...

I'm gonna start another threadin RR just 'coz!

I voted biker. I`ll use either side of a lane to pass cars when they jam themselves up, but wouldnt do it in moving traffic.

Goverment should fully subsidize the electric rail system, make it better and cheaper for the commuters and freight. and just for good measure they could lower motorcycle rego costs, and all bike sales could be gst free too. traffic jams would be a thing of the past! maybe ban all cars with more than three wheels, that would fix it
