i had my first confuntation of road rage on the weekend
i was at a set of lights in the city when the car next to me said to my front passenger "what u looking at", my front panenger then looked away. then the driver of the other car said " take ya mums car home" (dont know how a vs ss is a mums car but meh), my passender responded " get a holden/get a v8". i booted it past from lights.
then next set of lights 4 or 5 of them jumped out and one thumped my mate in the face, my passenger then wound up the window as the attacker punched the window. wile this was happening my back pasengers door was being riped open by another guy. i couldnt take off cause it was a red light but as soon as i could see no one was comming i botted it. i spend up to about 80ks in 50 zone to get away.
thats when i saw them speeding up to me trying to get along side me. they then tryed to run me off the road and started throwing bottles. i was able to get away cause they were just in a falcon 6 and i was in a vs ss. but eventually i had to stp at a red light.. thats when someone from the car threw a beer bottle through my back window, smashing and hitting my back passenger in the head. they then all got out of the car again so i did a u-turn and went as fast as i could to get away.
so now i have one mate with a bad black eye and a mate with a lump and little cut on his head..AND A SMASHED BACK WINDOW!!! lucky they didnt hit the panels but there is a few little paint chips on the spoiler
i went to the cops and took a statement. but they said there is not much they can do cause we only got a parshal plate. and the cop said its 90% likley any speeding and red light camera fines will be waivered cause my life was in danger.
what has the world come to when u cant even drive ya car without being attacked.
c'mon mike, 1. seb should keep his mouth shut, 2. its a ford driver, they get jealous!
We got rep back, yaaay!
cant belive ya didnt get plates wiht all ya dumb **** mates in the car you always have and i cant belive you actualy stopped and cared about a red light
sorry mike but you knwo what im saying
hope ya all ok and car gets fixed asap
Thats some serious road rage there. Bloody hell. Coppers should be able to get a id if you can identify what kind of car it was and partial plates...
cops dont care
of corse they could have looked it up but they wont waste time
mmmmmm donuts
Whats the specs of the other car? and the partial plate?
I had a similar (albeit not as costly) thing happen when i was in a mates car. They happened to be of the Lebanese variety, and had 2 car loads trying to **** up my mates car. Got away, also without getting plates.

the lights went green and the falcon didn't move, so after a few seconds i blasted the horn, still no movement. eventually this rough looking guy got out and started coming towards us, so i backed up a metre and went around him and took off. one of my mates said something to him over the PA, i honestly can't remember what it was a while back.
anyway next thing the falcon is chasing us, so i take off even faster as these guys are serious and they didn't look friendly. then my mate tells me there's a blue flashing light in the falcon's dash.
anyway we were all out sitting on the footpath as they searched the car, found nothing. they were obviously baiting us so i didn't get a fine although my mate got one 6 months later for swearing into the PA. the cop actually admitted he wasn't originally going to fine him but he was behind on his quota.
Erm, wouldnt it have been better for your mate to shut his mouth?
It would of been much easier to SHUT UP take off slow and take a turn.
Unfortunately people of today are wankers and like to do this ****.
This is why i keep a nice sidchrome tyre lever between my centre console and front seat.

damn shame, feel for ya man.
i had an axe handle in my car... but i realised i didnt have the cajones to use it and it would be hard to explain so i got rid of it.

steerin wheel locks are the best thing to keep under the seat, doesnt show as pre meditated if u go nuts on the ****s (cause its an item heaps of people have in cars unlike baseball bats and the like).
Trolley Jack Handle and wheel brace do me fine.

We had some good times
Ive been in two road rage incidents and I found both couldve been avoided by me.... the hardest thing is taking crap from these ****heads...... ahhh well its better to be thought a pussy than get ****ed like one.........
I keep a clublock in the car and a big mag light at home..... neither are illegal and both work efficiently in self defence
yeah theirs some idoits on tha road. iv only had one really bad incident. i turned off onto tha highway and there was a really slow car think it was a camira but anyways went to overtake him looked behind me to look for other cars and there was one way out prob 300 metres away. so i turned into the right lane and within 10 seconds they were right up tha back of me blastin their horn and flashen their lights. so it was very odvious to me they were speedin big time. so soon as i passed tha other car i turned back into tha left lane. they pulled their window down and came up beside me and started abusin me and given me death threats. i had my sister in tha car at the time and she was jus about in tears in the end she was so scared. they started tryin to make me pull ova and started swerven into me no way i was pullen ova for them those blokes looked nasty. so i took of down tha highway cld not catch me lucky i had my good old holden V8 lol
That sucks big time mate, I don't know what I would do in that situation....even though I have had a falcon chase me because I gave him the bird on a roundabout, facking morons.
Ive heard that they have quotas too....quite possible....they arent goin to admit it ...they didnt take their whole brain out at the academy!
Never had a cop do anything for me that I could genuinely thank him for anyway.

he definitely got a fine months later. i don't why that was, maybe the cop didn't get around to sending it and made some false excuse. who knows.
i suspect they were drug squad as they were dressed real rough looking and in an unmarked car so they did not appear to be TOG or the usual ticket writers.
