Default Funny or Irritating? You decide.

I was driving to work yesterday, up Frankston-dandy road. I get to the set of traffic lights next to Bursons and I come to a complete stop behind a lady in an Astra.

So I'm sitting there totally stationary, singing to my music like an idiot, and I notice the astra in front of me slowly rolling backwards. She doesn't stop and gets pretty close to my car. My horn doesn't work so I decide to reverse back about a meter and a half, all the room I had behind me.

I cant go any further so I think, **** it, I'll let her just hit me, I cant stop it and she's going about a quarter of a K an hour.

The Astra nudges into me, I see the lady's face in her mirror looking back at me. She looks ****ed off. pretty much right after that the light goes green and she takes off.

I take off too, carefully looking at the back of her car. It looks perfect, not even a scuff mark.

I end up in front of her, and at the next set of lights I look in my rear vision mirror and what do I see? The lady in the Astra writing down my rego!

Its my guess that she wasn't paying attention and rolled back into me, then thought I'd given her a nudge because I was impatient.

It ****ed me off, then I laughed then I was ****ed again. Now I'm laughing.

I can't make my mind up!

Stupid cow.

Another case of blaming someone else.

I would have got out the car!

Be ****ed off... She wasn't paying attention to what she was doing, she was the one at fault, then she tried to point the finger. If it was me, I would have peeled my tyres to rim leaving a big cloud of smoke in her face, stupid woman.

What a stupid *****! You should have flashed your lights until she stopped rolling. I'd be really ****ed if this happened to me.

See empty tinnies in the front seat do come in handy. Lob a few at her and watch her pay wake up.

Don't get me wrong Braden, If I was in a car I cared about I would have been devastated. Thankfully I was in my old Mazda 323, white with one red side gard!

Ha ha ha ha! Just as it happened, I considered throwing my empty solo can at her.

Has anyone had this happen to them before? Or something similar?

I once had an old lady hit my old NC in the car park of Broadmeadows station... I was parked, as all LWB's do, with either my front end or my rear end hanging over the line.

This woman pulls into the car park opposite me and nudges the front of my car.

She gets out and walks off... So I approached her and told her that she has hit my car.. she denied it and starts abusing me because the front of my car was over the line by about 10cm... :P

She took down my rego and reported me to the police... whom backed me up, as she has hit a stationry vehicle...

There wasn't any damage, I just wanted an apology from her lol :P

Hopefully this stupid cow who rolled back on you doesn't try and claim a new bumper or something... some people have nothing better to do than make other people miserable...

Yes I am the Girlfriend. And I totally rocked up the oval with my manual driving for the first time. Just don't ask me to drive on a real road.......that is a risk for other drivers.

i think you better get your horn fixed before you get called up by the cops, then it might be your 'fault' because your car was not fitted with that 'safety device' and your car is not 'roadworthy' or something.

Like you wouldent stick your head out the window and tell the deadSh\T that she's rolling back in a creative way.

I know I would........ But then my horn work's.

Vote 2 for getting the horn working if anything comes from it.

I can't believe it took so many numb-nuts to post before something sensible was said! You're car is unroadworthy and your horn is an important safety device. This was nothing compared to what could have been.....

Just be thankful it wasn't worse, because you'd probably be footing the bill for her stupid mistake.
