Urgent Question

[scathing]

Even if you don't have the plates, if you've got the colour and series of the Commodore I'd report it to the cops anyway.

Hopefully they can keep an eye out for it, and lean on the f**ker if they ever see him driving past. RBT him, get him to pop the bonnet, etc.....

Glad to hear that you're OK though.

[sewid]

I have reported things like this to the police before and always something is done about it. If you were shaken up enough to report this guy there is a good chance he's done it before and someone else has reported him so the police know exactly who it is already.

[Yo-Yo]

Hope you're going to be OK !! Just remember, Sydney has a insane amount of drivers on the road and sooner or later you're bound to come across the occasional idiot. Just avoid them as best you can and let them go on their way. If you're really lucky you'll pass them further down the road after they smash into a tree ( I speak from experience on that one ).

Heh, reminds me of the time a battered old ford laser cut in front of me, & over the hill, got over the hill there was the battered old laser, with half of the passenger side scraped onto the side barrier. Driver was lucky he wasn't hurt, just standing next to what was left of his car cursing & kicking the wheels.

Good to know there is justice in the world after all

Ok I have some very good news. I was outside my house tonight in my friends car when this car sped up my street again so we followed him. I think he knew though because we went around a few streets to make it look like we werent following them and they ended up behind us. This time they did not tailgate at all and drove normally so I am now 100% sure it is because I was in a skyline.

Anyway I managed to get the rest of the number plate and so I printed out a statement I made and went down to the local station. I wasn't actually going to but I am very glad I did.

The cop was really nice about it and I explained to her that I drive a skyline and this kind of thing happens all the time and we were talking about that for a bit. To cut it short- she said I had 2 options.

1. They could go and interview the driver and it could end up in court with me against them, but because I park in my driveway that isn't really an option.

2. They will distribute the details to every cop in the region and I call the police every time I see this car.

The lady I spoke to said she was actually going out driving tonight and will keep a lookout for it. She also said if I call them often enough they will set this car up and put an unmarked highway patrol car in the area to get them.

Now I am fairly certain I will be calling the cops every single night because I found out something very interesting.

Basically there is an 18 year old junkie that lives across the road. Tonight a car that looked and sounded very similar to this commodore dropped him off. I am pretty sure it is the same car and if so they are going to get completely screwed over. I know for a fact that he goes out and does drugs every night, he has lost his license and so have most of his friends. I have seen this car drop him off every single night for the past few months but it never occured to me that it was the same car until I saw them half an hour ago.

It may sound a bit extreme but I intend to make sure they lose their license because I really don't feel safe on the road with them around.

Just becareful with these things, it can start out as a car incident and turn in the opposite direction for the worse.

Keep your chin up!

Sorry to hear it. Where has all this happened? I've experienced quite a few royal arse holes in the glenfield to campbelltown area which is where i am all the time so if its around there i've probably experienced this *%$*#. Some are just outright wankers and i'd love to follow them and get my own back but if i do anything when in my car they'll be able to remember my plates easy and spot my car later on. Not worth it.

As for the cops, good luck. I had full car description and plates of a vehicle that robbed our house and the cops did nothing! But they were more than happy to book me for fog lights several years ago when i didnt know it was illegal AND it had been raising and was foggy in places. Some are just as bad as the wankers on the streets.

Yeah, the last thing you want to do is start a feud with the neighbours.

Things will escalate if they think you've got the cops to lean on them, and especially if they're f**ked off their nuts on drugs they'll do shit that no reasonable person would ever do because they're not rational.

I mean, we'd arrange a SAU lynch mob to sort the asshole out afterwards, but by then the damage would be done.

Ask the cops if they can keep your report anonymous, and if you PM some other members the details we can call the cops up to rack up his tally of complaints.....

And when they ask who reported them, the cops can reply with "a whole bunch of people" instead of just you.

it sucks when people drive badly around you, but amanda i have to say brake testing someone is never going to calm things down. and if he had reacted poorly and run into the back of your car chances are he would have jumped out, reached into your car yanked you out through the window and then lights out. maybe he'd just beat you up, maybe much worse.

my advice is let it go. nothing happend to you. you were pissed off because he acted like a tool (and i have no doubt what he was doing was very dangerous) but in the end you weren't hurt, your car wasn't damaged so I say leave it be. the only thing that came out of it was you were upset. dont waste more of your time on trying to make someone elses life miserable. in fact if he is a junky then he already has a miserable life.

[Alien]

if u have a glass bottle, or a can of coke, or better yet a club lock, simply get in front of him and chuck it out aiming for the driver side, dead bogans cant talk

nah dont take that seriously, just let it go, you run into idiots every once in a while, just take it as it comes as long as ur not in serious threat (if you are then you take action against them like something similar to mentioned above). like baron said, he is already miserable scum so let it be.

[d0p3y]

Let it go, theyre probrably idiots but I know that if anyone "brake tests" me I make their life hell. If you make a big deal out of it they will probrably start making your life hell for an extended period of time.. especially now they know your car and where you live. It's not a generally good idea to do it, I'm guilty of it on a few occasions to a few wankers but that's only because I couldn't give a shit if my car got burnt down overnight

[someonestolecc]

Sounds like a p plater that will encounter a car load of boys who will sort him out.

Good thing you weren't hurt - don't stress too much and don't let it get to you.

Dumbest thing I've heard today. Stop listening to 50 cent.

[lastlineofdefence]

Its Mr Fiity Cent to you!

Yeah, amanda, your ok, which is the main thing, your car is ok which is the 2nd thing, so dont stress to much. if you waste time on that loser then he is getting what he wants - a reaction. Either leave it well alone or past it on to the relevent authorities.

[smasha]

Let it go, theyre probrably idiots but I know that if anyone "brake tests" me I make their life hell.

Whenever anyone tries to tailgate me, I slow down... If they don't get off my arse, i slow down to 10km/h... then 5km/h...

They usually decide to go around.

But the boys above are right, you don't want some dodgy Junkies after you.

[d0p3y]

I hate idiots who tailgate me when I'm already speeding or whatnot. If I was going 20kmh under the speed limit in the right lane then fair enough, but otherwise its uncalled for.

[ranicx]

i think you should keep on them. its people like this that we dont want on the roads and who kills innocent familys with there careless driving and miss-judgement.

i wouldnt think it of getting your own back at them, but saving somone elses life, because ya cant drive like that and somthing not go wrong eventualy.

they may be passing a car and someone walks out on the gutter and gets hit. or they pass someone on a blind corner (seen it happen) and have a head on with a young mother on her way to work.

think about it people, would you realy want someone like that, or anyone like that driving around risking there life and yours all the time? i sure as hell wouldnt.

if noone speaks up and just sits on there ass, then more people are going to get killed by these reckless drivers.

.. and i hate P platers who do shit like this, because im a P plater too and cop shit from alot of people because of that. and thats because P platers like this are absolute fu*kwits on the road and we get stereotyped instantly as idiots.

[Bro'Duh]

kkkkk you give me house address. i go down with boys and hurt k

I think its better to leave it to the police, rather then making it a personal mission. Its fine to do your part, which would be passing information on to the police. But dont get involved because it can cause problems later down the track if the victims get back at these persons.

no no i think you miss understand me. i wasnt saying to make it a personal mission. i was saying to tell the police about it, and not just sit back and wait for someone else to do somthing about it which so many of us do. hell i do it too from time to time, im not saying im perfect
