Default What kind of sick individuals??

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/...ear-crash-site

Quote:
NSW police have recovered empty oil cans from bushland in Sydney's Royal National Park near a bend where three cars lost control and crashed after driving over a deliberately left slick.

Three cars were travelling along Sir Bertram Stevens Drive after 11pm (AEDT) on Saturday when they lost control while navigating a sharp bend and crashed into trees.

A driver and passenger from one of the vehicles were taken by ambulance to St George Hospital with minor injuries.

Investigators believe up to 40 litres of oil had been deliberately poured over a 100m stretch of the road near Warumbul Road.

Police have now recovered two oil cans near to the scene of the crashes.

"We've found two oil cans that were thrown into the bush near to where the oil was poured and we've seized them for forensic examination," a police spokeswoman told AAP on Monday.

Anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

WTF... Why would you deliberately put oil on a road for cars to crash? Some people are plain idiots

Catch them and feed them oil!

Oil should only be put on the ground for those that need a little assistance getting there wheels to spin. ;)

If it's not bad enough that cars are crashing as a result of their fun, but any motorcyclists hitting that oil at any speed are going to come off 2nd best.

I hope they catch these mongrels and get the book thrown at them. I only worry now that other mentally challenged citizens will see this as good fun and copy the actions just like the bridge rock throwers.

Going off on a tangent here but that reminds of the plot to the classic Aussie movie The Cars That Ate Paris

Gee that VW made an impression on my adolescent brain.

The kids used to put down oil to skid near the pier, I was coming out of there and as I started to take off suddenly I was doing a 90degree turn straight into a guardrail... that was fun :(

Oil + Roads do NOT mix under ANY circumstance

Have had this done to me... ******* idiots put oil over the road at an uphill stop sign. Saw them all standing around looking like idiots, realised what was up as I went to take off.. Fortunately it was at a stop sign, so definitely not life endangering (Unless you weren't intending on obeying the law) but stupid.

Called the firies, cleaned it up, dunno if anything happened to the guys.

$3/L if you buy at woolies or something..

Considering it was likely cheap ****, maybe the cops should start checking sales logs of Woolworths/Coles/BigW/Kmart in the area and see if any customers bought a large quantity of oil..

If by some miracle they catch these XXXXXXXX they should be charged with attempted murder and do some serious time . Watch them get a slap on the wrist if by some miracle they are caught .

whose to say it wasnt used sump oil? I tend to store bottles of used oil over time ready for the next time I can legally dispose of it at the tip.

Back on topic though, there are no words low enough to describe these poor excuses for humans.

If it is locals against motorcyclists and they are caught I would love to show this vermin what the wrong end of a hiding looks like , and when I say hiding I mean a HIDING that will see them hospitalised for months .

Many years ago when Bundabergs main street was neatly divided into two lanes each way, traffic lights at each intersection, and parallel parking along the sides of the road and side by side parks up the middle, the place was a haven for all us young guys to cruise laps every friday and saturday night..the street would be full of dozens and dozens of fantastic cars. Occasionally someone would do a burnout, a small one, or organise a drag race outside town later on, maybe a quick squirt between the lights.

Anyway, one guy was notorious for pouring oil on the road to do burnouts...because that's the only way his hopeless old slant six powered Valiant ex-ambulance which weighed a ton could light them up...
Unknown to me, he had poured a couple of liters of the stuff at one intersection, Targo street, and 17 year old me was driving along in my 265 Hemi Charger towards a green light, which went yellow. I was turning right, so I flicked my indicator and accelerated to beat the light turning right off the main street.
Then I hit the oil.
Luckily there was nothing in my way, as I spun neatly around 180 degrees (and possibly a full 360 spin before that...it was all squeeling tyres and spinning lights for a few seconds there...) and slid backwards across to come to a stop outside a bank, almost as if I had parked there, the Charger chugging to a stalled stop with me sitting there squashing the steering wheel with my fingers and with puckering bunghole.
The night lit up with reds and blues as a cop car, which had been sitting at the opposite side of the intersection, sped across and stopped, a cop jumping out to see if I was OK. He said they were on their way to check on a report of oil spread on the road, and I replied (when he powers of speech returned) "I think I found it for you".
The cops blocked the lane and a council crew came out and spread kitty litter everywhere while trying to clean it up.
I had a little chat with the guy a few nights later about what he'd done...

There's never any excuse for ******* putting oil down on a public road...none at all.
