I was travelling to work, coming off epping road where you do this loopy turn onto pacific. This moron in an Integra has run the red light on pacific, seen traffic entering the right lane, then come into the left lane just as I'm coming in (by the time he reached me he was still doing about 70, I don't think he hit the brakes at all).
I managed to swerve and avoid him but my bumper would have only missed him by about a half metre. I pulled up beside him to give him a mouthful (and snap a picture on my phone) but he turned off, I doubled back to find the little bastard but he was gone. I guess some people are just gods gift to the road.

What a twat. Some people really shouldn't be allowed to drive. I am assuming you didn't get his rego then...
Good to hear you dodged him though.

If he'd hit me, possibly 3 other car would have been involved. All he could manage was a 'sorry' wave, wasn't even a convincing one, *****.

Umm, it wasn't half a metre side-by-side. It was half a metre with my nose heading right for him. In my opinion, that's a little different.

Not last time I checked. But I've got a better chance of tracking the guy down with his number plate than without....

Yeah I think maybe I'm a marked man now. The person who doesn't like me is getting a Pulsar now so maybe he's getting an army or ricers to rally to his cause.

Oh god please no. We can't let the meek inherit the earth! The ricers will inherit whatever we bloody well give them.

The reality of it is you'd be more likely to get points for using your phone in traffic than him for driving like a moron.
Hooray for politicians |
