Do you REALLY want to have fun?

Put the rego & vehicle type of high profile media people e.g. Grant Denya, Koshie, Ray Martin, John Laws etc on it and then leak it.....

This wombat will get nailed to a cross......

P.S. Get the admins to remove this post if you do....

I put a legit complaint in there, and it didn't get posted!
I had some clown sitting in the RH lane of 2 lanes, with another car a few lengths back in the left lane, doing the same speed. I waited a few seconds for him to move over, but instead, he gave me the finger. I then high beamed him. Then when it opened up into 3 lanes, he sped up! He went to the left lane, and I kept my distance by going to the right lane and kept a consistent speed. He moved to the middle lane and began a process of speeding up and slowing down to drive alongside me and continue giving me the finger. So my passenger started returning the favour. I got worried it might get worse, so I told my mate to stop gesturing back to him and took his rego... and later used it on idiotdriver.com.
He eventually disappeared into the distance in his later model "hairdresser's edition" Honda CRX - the model that was a mere shadow of the original CRX as a sports car.
He had the opportunity to move over as he was breaking an unwritten rule of the road of sitting in the right hand lane when cars wanted to get past (it was an 80 zone, so it's not an actual offence to fail to keep left, but it is considered courtesy to do so) and was clearly willing to drive faster as he proved later.

This is how the owner of idiotdriver.com descibes his website on ebay.

idiotdriver.com.au is a public forum web site for reporting unsafe acts observed on our roads.

The aim of the site is to increase public awareness of road safety and in turn reduce the road toll. It is thought that drivers may be less inclined to drive unsafely if they are aware that they can be reported on an easily accessible public forum which displays the details of their vehicle. This novel approach makes drivers not only accountable to authorities but also the general public.

The data collected by IdiotDriver.com.au may prove valuable as it will reveal issues that concern drivers and give a genuine indication of what is happening on our roads.

The road toll and unsafe driving are a part of daily life and keep a constant high public profile affecting all Australians. It is for this reason that this site has exceeded all expectation and will continue to do so in the future.
