who here finds them totally dangerous and annoying?
Im not trying to paste all of them before anyone starts, i had a run in with one yesterday who was riding dangerously, pulled the worlds most stupid manourve, then gave me a mouthful of abuse at a set of lights, saying im the bad driver and the cause for the near crash? WTF?
Heres what happened.
Im in a 30 zone, already being slighty naughty being over 30, then this big jap bike pulls right up to my back bumper and tailgates me, weaving left and right trying to overtake. We then go round a bend and hit a straight peice of road, that goes over a victorian railway bridge, which narrows the road, he then opens up, comes flying past me on the bridge, then realises there is a row of parked cars on the opposite side of the road, just after the bridge that narrow the road to one lane. we are approaching these and he still hasnt got past. Just before he is going to hit the point of no return he then swings in in front of me, causing me to brake harshly before i clip him (even then it was still effing close), and him nearly run in the back of the car infront of me as that has started to brake and turn left. I flashed my lights to congratulate him on such a fine manourve, he rides off into the distance.
Then when i get to the next set of lights hes there. i roll up (my window was already open) and he looks accross, opens his visor and starts a barrage of effing and jeffing and abuse that i cant drive, so i let rip back, infurated by his accusations (was i the one riding a bike, that decided to overtake a car already above the speed limit on the most dangerous stretch of road?). He then shoots off from the lights when it turns green, and at the roundabout down the road, he overtakes a car thats turning right on the round about, for him to then turn right as well (not a two lane roundabout, and a tight turn for a car)
He was middle aged and riding like a proper dick & i bet he was so angry because he had been riding like that all afternoon and getting abuse. I just wish i was a copper in an umarked car with this ring nut.
You never see middle aged men do this on harleys or goldwings, its always replica race leathers and japanese sport bikes. And they wonder why they get hit, maimed and killed.
I wonder if he actually watched traffic cops on wednesday
I have respect for motorcylists, most of my mates are, and so is future dad in law and his mates, and having ridden push bikes on the road and seen some nasty motorcycle accidents, i always look out for and am aware of motorcyclists
