^^^ im pretty sure it was a joke.
Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Yeah cause violence is definately the best way to deal with everything, it sets a stellar example for the kiddies you are so dedicated to protecting and definately helps you take a step up to that high moral ground your preaching about. Think about it if you go and do something like that you are just as much of an idiot as this dude.
They need to ban worse things than smoking first.
Lets see,
a) Mothers driving with kids, there should be a soundproof window seperating front and back to stop mothers trying to do **** for kids while doing 120 in a 80 zone
b) Mothers doing 120 in an 80 zone while trying to stop her kids fighting while on the phone trying to look in the mirror to do her make up.
c) Mothers doing 120 in an 80 zone while trying to feed said kids, while on a mobile phone trying to do make up while talking to her mothers club partner about the up coming bake sale.
Think my point is driven enough?
d) Police who do 120+ in a 100 zone are setting a great example for the public, if you people can do 120 then why can't everyone else? Using the "it could be emergency" excuse is a crock of **** as you usually catch up with them by the second set of lights after the 100 zone stops.
e) Police who do 100+ in an 80 zone and stop promptly for each light, if you are allowed to do it, than so can everyone else.
f) Old farts who do 30 in a 60 zone then drive at the speed limit with their high beam on because you overtook their camry with no effort and never passing the speedlimit.
g) Old farts who do 70 in a 100 zone and 100 in a 70 zone.
I think making rules to stop these sort of road exercises would be a great start to making our roads safer. I think if police LEAD by example it would probably help just a little also.
I've gotten done for speeding, 92 in a 60 zone. Yes i regret it. $350 and 6 points would do that so i can see exactly where your coming from...
I was overtaking this guy that was doing 25 (TWENTY FIVE!!) in a sixty zone for over a 2k's. Double lines so i couldnt overtake and i didnt think it would be safe to do it anyways becuase there was to much on comming traffic. So at the instant i could get around him i did. Pushed it, i flew past, got the high beam treatment. etc etc
Then about 50-70 metres after overtaking him a coppa jumps OUT OF A BUSH!! he hid his bike in the actual bush. I had to brake so hard and swerve not to hit him.
What im getting at is that people that take the **** on the roads by driving 25 in a sixty zone for no appearant reason cause more accidents then prevent them.
I've had the honour of travelling to every state in australia and its literally as soon as your cross the boarder the attitude changes. QLD is the worse. You've got a better chance of getting somewhere if you stay in the left hand lane. No one moves over. People pull out infront of you, tailgate the list goes on... and dont bloody says thanks!! HOW HARD IS IT TO RIASE YOUR HAND?!?!
Sorry had a get get it out. Driving to work is the most stressful experience of my day and i see something new everytime. People reading newspapers, putting makeup on, every 3rd car on the phone, saw one lady on her laptop the other day. I'd be racking in the revenue if i was a cop. :dance:
wow loads of swings there... so your saying you could comfortably and patiently sit behind someone thats going really slow for 2k's... i doubt it very much man. when your doing 25ks, 2km's takes FOREVER. people that dont know how to drive cause accidents. people that dont indicate cause accidents. people that show off, cause accidents. People that dont know the rules cause accidents!
so you've never speed, never thought i should have stopped at that red light? where i got done wasnt a residental area, it was a long country back road. i know it doesnt matter, but i wouldnt have gone that fast in a residental area, no way! im not bloody stupid. I've learnt from it and i dont speed. simple The car doesnt kill its the person behind it.
But still haven't actually ever seen or in-fact heard of a person doing 25KPH in any speed zone 'CASUE' an accident! Impatient drivers behind said slow drivers CAUSE accidents!
