not bagging out or anything, but like the time a young fella in a vn tried to pass me on an offramp in my v6 pajero?..60km zone to 100km, I think he understimated the torque of the paj a bit and ended up cutting himself off.
Well I though it was great anyway.
LOL nice wasnt purple was it ;P the vn i mean

this happend at outside garden city at the big intersection at lunch time, saw it on my way back to work, some guy in a small car starts beeping then jumps outta his car in the middle of the intersection then a truckie jumps out and they move over to the island leaving there vehicals in the middle of the road, anyway they looked like they were arguing so i stayed and watched, next thing the guy from the car swings a punch at the truckie and there into it LOL, then another truckie stops his rig and comes over to help out his mate LOL the poor bastard in the small car copped an absolute floggin LOL, i can still remember the cops runnin there asses off from the station.
oh well he'll think twice before trying to be a tough man
ok ill give a lil taste of one of the many things that ive seen
western port hwy in melb from where it breaks off from monash fwy down to about cranbourne/frankston rd (for those who dont know its about a 15km 100km limit streach of dual hwy with round a bouts)
on my mates 18th bday i camt to pick him uup from mine he lives in frankston north took that hwy back.
anyway gy in a 80=85 model red bmw withp's was dragging me off every round about
got to the 2nd one (hall rd) and he completly turned it around from the dip in the rds on the round about facing us nearly collected me i was pissing myself laughing too hard to get mad at him i got out of my car he stutterd a so..so so sorry to me and took off across the feilds just left the car there
this mad me cry with laughter so we pushed his car onto the emergency lane and took off on our way.
once seen an old man riding one of those plega scooters (the ones that old ppl have) that go like 5kmph on the main road n no1 wanted to over take him. and when i finished work bout 3 hrs latter i seen him again he just got into town. musta been like a 7-8 kilometer Rd in bout 35 degree heat... i kno i shouldnt of laughed but it was funny, it was more WTF then funny
everyone knows if you turn your car around you just keep the tyres smoking until it's facing the right way again and take offOriginally Posted by smokey_dj
edit: that's a joke, don't really do it.
haha having a flashback moment,
reminds me of the time my mate flogged a couple of plastic trays from maccas,
we took my old pulsar out, drove the backwheels onto the plastic trays, put the handbrake on and started driving. best fun in a front wheel drive ever!!!
lol did it end like our mates on his exa
oh shit6 GUTTER GUTTER GUTTER BANNNNGGGGGGGGGG
About a year ago i was driving through some rich suburb and there was some lady with a brand new BMW parked on the side of the road. I slowed down a bit to see what was happening and she had a flat tire. Anyway she had the drivers door open and had the car jack under it and was just about to jack the car up by the open door. Lucky i was there to help her out or she would have caused a bit of damage to the brand new BMW. But i still had to laugh about it.
Australia. Love it or leave it
Haven't witnessed much in my year and a half of driving...
Some guy and a woman, I think they were arguing... Anyways, I was behind the car going right around a roundabout, and before the car exitted the round about, this woman swung open the passenger door, hung her feet out and slid about 3-4 meters on her sandals across the road and landed on the footpath. She was all upset looking and was swearing at the bloke in the car...
Two short stories both involving my VH SS only because it is what made the other drivers take the action they did I presume.
First one I was driving down the Albany Highway in Gosnells and a deep red HJ wagon pulls along side and starts revving his car and then dumping the clutch to lurch forward and would then fall back and come roaring alongside to do it again. I wasn't interested so payed no attention until we got down to Lakes Road (for those playing at home in Perth) which is a T junction joining the Hwy to the right. He indicated off and gave me a long sneering stare as he moved to the right, I blew the horn to warn him but he gave me the finger just before he drove in to the front of a Bulldozer. Yes he did collect the witches hats without realising. I stopped and helped, he was fine but his car was smashed and he was carrying on about it being my fault.
The other one I'm sad to say involved an immaculate HT Wagon.
My Girlfriend and I had been surfcatting on the Swan River and were just leaving the South Perth Foreshore. The Foreshore used to consist of a couple of straight bitumen roads that joined with limestone tracks that took you down to and along the river bank.
I was doing probably at least 60km/h when this HT Wagon full of heroes came flying up behind me. I moved over for him to pass me on the right as there were no real roads at all but in his wisdom he thought he would pass on the left. He slowed down then booted it on the loose shit and did a powerslide out alongside us then promptly lost control sliding one way and then the other until he hit a nice little row of small Kopper Logs stuck in the ground.
The logs actually punched holes in his car in about three places and snapped off his entire left front wheel incuding the hub.
I ended up giving him a lift to his parent's house to get his dad and a trailer and his Dad was not happy.

the funniest thing ever was when a copper was following this fully worked vn ss and this realtivly stock supra and the copper pulled over and defected the supra and let the vn go!!
just go's to show that if coppers have a choice they will pull over rice before anything aussie
We got rep back, yaaay!
funniest thing iv seen l8ly was this guy in a little red selica taking of from the lights (down ocean reef road) and the roads were still realy wet. well i was waiting to cross to the middle of the road and hes hammering the shit out of this car (doing about 100km/h in an 80km/h zone). he changes gears and i think he must of left his foot on the accelerator and when it re-engaged the back swung left the he voer corected right the much to his dismay did a nice 720 and ended up facing backwards across both lanes right were i was trying to cross the road. i was almost cryign with laughter at this point. he just did a 3point turn and granny drove off. hahaha. some ppl!

last week, i went with my mate to pick up a body kit in his family's honda odyssey(soo slow 2.4 vtec, but has mad tiptronic gbox). Neways next light we stop and saw new celica next to us, just being smartasses we screech it a bit on take off laughing that it could actually screech on take off,lol, next thing this celica gives it, so we give it and it took him untill 80k's when we backed off to go past us,he was next to us really giving it to his car and couldnt get past. next lights, we wound the windows down and laughed our heads off, he was fuming and just dumped it and took off,lol so much for being a sports car!
family van 1 - rice sports car 0 lol
well when I was a younging i tried to take off out of a car park too quick in my little yellow gemmi. I dropped a couple of cm's (curb wasn't shaped properly) tyres gripped spun 180 degrees. Never tried that again.
Well last weekend was in Syd Parra, for all the sydney people . Behind Church st where the cafe's are is a carpark which holds about 80 cars or something. Anyway right next to the car park is a steep hill leading to the parra river foreshore and eventually into the water. Anyway drove in and saw a car down the steep hill leaning against a walk rail next to the foreshore, so close from going into the drink. The car had bent part of the rail out and front tyre was leaning over edge. Was a little white corolla 80's model. Drive must have mashed the accelerator instead of breaks lol.
Last night on Mountain Highway...car pulls up next to me, i look over...the driver is giving me the "horns" or whatever people call them, the metal hand thingy and yelling "Ozzy".
Now, my 100% favourite performer is Ozzy Osbourne/Black Sabbath and people who know me, know this and some even call me Ozzy as a nickname.
We pull away from the lights and she guns it (its a lanos, poor car) and is driving in and out of my lane about 10 metres infront of me, just in and out in and out, then we turn onto dorset road and she puts the hazzards on for a while.
I dont know who it was...but it was really weird

a older lady in a red hatch decides to enter the intersection the wrong way (right infront of a cop shop) she proceeds to BEEP at incomming traffic asif they are in the wrong... she got through all 3 roundabouts before exiting the last one the wrong way and driving straight past a copper driving back to the station. i ended up inbetween the cop and the lady haha pulled over to let him get her... (i love the mooroolbark cops they never give me shit..probbly cuz i work over the road from em and make their dinner most of the time)
still funniest thing ive seen in a while apart from 4 guys driving past hanging out the windows pretending to paddel the car on the free way doing 100km/h
I've seen a lot of funny or wierd stuff on the roads, but the one that springs to mind right now is when we moved to QLD.
ol' man and myself in a low-loader with 20t excavator on the back belting up the highway at a paltry 90odd km/h and a b-double comes up, overtakes us, and the driver is "whipping" his truck like a racehorse. probly not that funny, but it's on of my few memories of ym dad in better times

i have'nt seen much funny or weird stuff but ive seen alot of stupidity on the roads
yeah. that intersection is crazy...my girlfriend took me through it second time she went out driving...i just shut my eyes.Originally Posted by PaRaDoX616
First time she went out driving was in my VL, round the factories off Dorset road (opposite eastfield road) and she got pulled over by the cops within the first 10 minutes of getting her P plates, they thought she was pissed she was driving so slow and jerky.
Had some idiots yelling shit at me through the window of their VL on Mountain Highway on friday aswell, hanging clean out the window...i swear my car attracts dero's

Very quickly swung her back into line and tried not to look at all the people laughing at me......
