Story's and Idiots On The Road!

Krytox · 05-12-2006, 05:41 PM

Well.. Mondays are interesting.

1: Some fool in front of me turning right into FTG Road from Huntingdale 07:20 decided he can Txt whilst driving! Green arrow went.. so did he and...
Bang striaght into the Keep left sign in the middle of the road! (was replaced today) onya vic roads

2: Lucky it wasn't a ford,
I was at the car wash on high street Ashwood (19:30) last night with a couple of mates washing a newly purchased car and me in the landcruiser.

Bloke with a Black 180SX / Skyline what ever.. and who cares
decided after he's washed/polished his car he might spin up the road...and show the old landy what it cant do!

So he's hit boost.. 180'd (funny that) early in the right hand turn and took out the medium strip and keep left sign!
dismemebered part of his front end and came to a complete stop. He's then continued to drive over the sign and medium strip and f$%ked off up the road! nice work...

Anyone find the Third Keep Left fatality?

Just thought i'd share these idiots with ya's

Umm, brain dead piece of work went through a left turn slip lane...by using it as a right turn slip lane just last week.

Another "genius", this time a pedestrian, presses the button to cross the road. Walks halfway across the road, stops dead in the middle, grabs her chin, has a wonder about where she should go now, light turns green for the road traffic and then decides to walk back to the side of the road she started on.

Yet another candidate for Mensa was driving a Commonwhore on a three lane highway, decides that he or she wants to turn left at an upcoming street, cuts me off (I was in the left lane) and the middle lane of traffic to speed into a one way street with big bold signs saying "NO ENTRY" when I hear tyres squealing. Out reverses this green turtle (was a VT) and driving out after them was a divvy van, lights flashing.

It was only a question as he said.

And if it's like the amount of idiot drivers I have seen this week ... all of them would have been P-platers ... as that's the only idiots I have seen driving like Temporary Australians.

Usually it's taxi drivers though ... but none spotted doing their usual erratic driving ... it's a surprise for my in Sydney to see safe taxi drivers for a change.

Thanks for that. Temporary Australians = only here until their visa expires, and I don't mean their credit card.

Renault Megane riding my **** yesterday. The stooge then wants to go me at the lights. Didn't bite at first, but thought stuff it lets put this fool in his place.

Well and truly blew him off, so what does he do? That's right speeds up to my bumper again.

I just turned on my lights on so he thought I was braking and let go of the accelerator, gave him the finger and he turned off.

******* moron! If he had of hit me I would've belted him. Any dude driving one of them has to be a ***** anyway.

It was a question, hence the question mark at the end.

I think that's why they are employing so many young girls to do traffic control now. It has a calming effect. They are less likely to get abused. Probably get "show us ya tits" instead.

I was in a mini when a red volvo changed lanes, smashed into the side of me almost running me off the road. He sped off after he looked at us, lucky my gf was driving or id have shoved his red volvo up his red ***. He almost killed us because he mis judged the length of our car.

smiley · 05-12-2006, 10:41 PM

A guy at mcdonalds wanted to get out of the drive through lane cause he couldn't be bothered waiting and got stuck on his exit. It was a curb, with a small length of grass and then curb on the other side. He wen't over it and as his front wheels came off the far curve, his back wheels had just approached the initial curb, so the side bumper was resting on this grass petrusion and he couldn't go anywhere, wheels kept spinning (front wheel drive) so he had to put it back into reverse and rev the crap out of it to get back into the drive thru lane and then wait again an order eventually in front of about 6 cars who had just watched him do this. Kinda felt sorry for him.

[Tonko] · 06-12-2006, 12:51 AM

i was stopped at lights (4 lanes, left turn, 2 straight lanes and a right turn lane) out the front of a local shopping centre when an old woman in a kingswood was turning right (past us) from the shopping centre i was at the front of the right straight ahead lane she was eating an ice cream and cut off a person heading straight into the shops and turned into our right turn lane! where she had a head on with a bloke in a BA XR8 ute (that he just picked up from the dealer up the road). she got out of the car, still holding her ice cream and screaming that he was on the wrong side of the road!!then she paused and looked around obviously realising what she just done, and fell to the ground saying she is too injured and cant remember what happened, thankfully my statement helped relieve her of the burden of carrying a license...

(sorry if the description was crappy, its hard to explain without hand movements haha...)

Wednesday night had too pick my brother up from his mates house, Too many drinks:P. He was hanging his head out the window doing the bizz. Anyway he layed back in the seat and i was driving carefully cause i didn't want him too vomit over my interior. When going around a roundabout it's 3 lanes, Far left left turns and straight, Middle right turns and straight, Right lane right turns only. So I'm going around this roundabout in the middle lane keeps on the left lane side for the next one. When some car in the right lane drives straight and didn't turn, And i was thinking if my brother wasn't sick in the car i would have been right up next too that car and he would have smashed straight into me, But going easy i had plenty of time too avoid him and keep my brother from throwing up.
This was about 12.30am about 20 cars on the road.

GXL078 · 06-12-2006, 09:42 AM

Going to work one morning on the M2 Motorway. Both lanes are a car park. Fool in a 200SX Playstation car decides to overtake about 2Kms worth of traffic up the bicycle lane. 5 minutes later when I arrive at my exit he is at the toll barrier and can't get through. He is holding up a long line of cars the twit.

**Mechan1k** · 06-12-2006, 10:21 AM

^^^^^^^
hee hee
some people have visa's that expire earlier than others ... you can see in the way they drive.

06-12-2006, 10:30 AM

By that I think he meant there temporary because there dangerous driving will probably kill them. sooner or later

Edit: I'm a bit slow

**Mechan1k** · 06-12-2006, 10:37 AM

It's OK .... definitely meant about temporary ... as in temporary life span.

MITCHAY · 06-12-2006, 10:44 AM

Man you should see all the diplomats here in Canberra who have no idea how to drive.

Most of the are rolling in ultra expensive rides too so they might be safe in an accident but the poor bastard they hit won't be that well off.

I think that's exactly it. We have separate diplomatic plates here in Canada and they seem oblivious of other traffiic, rules, red lghts, speed limits (Actually drive at about half the speed limit!!), lanes, etc.

Always expensive cars, usually on their phones and completely ignore "input" from other drivers! :SaiyanSmi

I knew that, I was just playing with my words.

I've seen people come to a full stop on green, wait for a red and then GO!! Especially on left turns. (Right there?)

a handsfree kit costs 30$ BUY ONE!

Handsfree drivers are even worse here. Think about it. A handsfree user is already PLANNING to yap on the phone all the way to their destination. I've had more problems with them myself. I've noticed they use the hands free so they can free up their hands for anything but driving, usually a laptop, briefcase, writing, reading etc.

The ones that make HAND GESTURES while talking on mobiles phones are pretty stupid.

Watched a guy behind me once with a cell in one hand and eating an apple with the other while "kind of" steering with his knuckles!

Person on the other end must have LOVED the sounds coming out in HIS/HER ear!!

havoc19 · 07-12-2006, 04:06 AM
