Well you wouldn't be able to miss my car (or ignore her by the way)... apparently the music is considered a little loud at times and the sideways action with slight tyre smoke and noise is kind of noticeable but its really not every corner like some will try to say :eclipsee_

Well the best way to know if you run into Kerri is if you see a white XR6 behind you but can't see the rego plates or headlights or in fact any details of the front of the car because they are obscurred as she tailgates the living hell out of you.

Love you girlfriend xxxxxx

Nasty :
I had someone do that in my car the other night... I did not understand the whole concept of grabbing at this poor little bar... Mind you the look on her face at the time was kind of priceless :

I lived in Ippy, and now im in Kallangur. I can now actually walk down the street without the keys clenched into my fist incase i was jumped from the bushes...

One night, just putting fuel in my car, i was attacked by 6, well lets say, "Local Ipswich Mongs" as i was fuelling my car. No reason, just because they were ИИИИed. Luckily, i need my keys to open the fuel cap and they were in my hand. I pierced two guys, one in the kneck and the other in the cheek, and they thought i had a knife and went on running like girls.

Now, i walk down the street, park up anywhere, and even if they are Bommodore mongs, they still have a friendly chat with ya, and dont want to knock ya head off...

I know there are people like that everywhere, but ive seen a lot more in Inala/Ipswich/Capalaba...

However, Morayfield can be classed as a northside exception id say. ALWAYS lock your doors....

Hehe, morayfield isn't anywhere near as bad as the southern suburbs, hell the old guy who I bought my Falcon off lived at Morayfield. But around here seems ok, pretty ordinary suburb, bit sleepy and the residents generally behave themselves.

I'm not sure that tailgating is the issue I tend to think its more of a "have to go around every corner sideways" issue but in the words of Rob "is there any other way?" :
hmmmm however note to self "dont get in front of fiery at a club run involving lots of mountain decents" tee hee you know we love ya :

I dont tailgate purposely .... honestly I dont... I just kind of forget the whole keep x amount of distance thing...
or the person in front is going slower than I would like :

You do realise though if you brake hard (for no real apparent reason) and someone hits you from behind --- its kind of mostly your fault!!!!!!!!!
and I have never been THAT close that I cant pull up in time when someone has tried that whole stopping for no reason thing... :

if it was to happen regardless if the person braked hard on purpose..it would be your fault for not allowing enough braking distance...you could argue all day that the person braked too hard or did it on purpose....but it will be your fault
