Pedestrians Who Think They Own The Road!

[AzzurrA]

Just driving into my estate then, from visiting my friend, was driving along at under (about 40kph) the speed limit (which was 50) and there is a lefthand corner (there is a roundabout, but i was turning left.

now, this street is partially obscured by trees on the corner, so i couldn't see too far in.... i go around the corner (still about 30-35kph) and there is a lady, 2 kids and a guy crossing the road just up from the corner (maybe 5 or 10 metres).

I see them when i'm about halfway through the corner, so i brake, with plenty of time/room to spare, and just roll along at about 10kph (so i didn't have to completely stop).

now the woman and the 2 kids walked across the road normally, not a problem with them, but then the guy feels it is his right to stop in the middle of the road and give me a death stare and start mouthing something off at me. I'm practically stopped by this stage and after about 5 or 10 seconds he walks off the road and i give the throttle a bit of a blip so i can put it back into first and drive off (synchro is a bit dodgey sometimes) and the guy gives me another death stare and starts mouthing off again.

then after i drove off, i see him looking at the car and what seemed like an attempt to remember/write down the numberplate.

now i'm not sure what this f**ktard is on / who the f**k he thinks he is or what he thinks he's going to do, but i nearly got out of the car and gave him a mouthful....

grrrrr... i'm f**kin pissed off!

dude

stop takin drugs

ur anger seems to be gettin worse and worse every wk.

lol,

dont beat me up for that comment, i was kiddin about the drugs bit

[Spook's_Skyline]

its like you havent driven much

there are idiots everywhere

[R33S2]

So what happened here?

Some EMO who was having an emo moment chose to you to annoy and guess what? it worked, he transfered his anger to you,

What you should do is realise he is nothing more than an emo little boy and feel sad for him as his life will only get worse if he keeps up that sort of behaviour and also that he was lucky it was you and not some pshyco who would of broken his legs, and be happy thinking that, that may well happen.

Same thing happen to me, i turned left into my street around 10pm again doing around 35k and to my surprise found about ten kids playing in the street totally unattened, the stupid retards wouldnt move so i honked my horn few times, and flashed high beams

finally they moved and i drove to house and waited for the gates to open, while i was waiting a man ran out of his house and startted knocking on my windows, i wound it down and he WENT OFF HIS NUT at me, saying i was speeding and to slow down and give way etc etc,

I said i wasnt speeding, and you shouldnt let your kids play in the street, the man told me to watch how i drove and if he saw me do it again he would drive his ute into me

i told him to get over it and then reverese

THE same guy recently has yelled at my brother for driving fast (he probably was) the man said, my 6 yr old down syndrom son plays on the streets and slow down,

my bro replied mate a down syndrom kid shouldnt be playing alone in a street and then told him to piss off

END RANT.....

[ZENNON]

haha - some people are just idiots

[WazR32GTSt]

a lot of people are idiots...

but then again, if i was that guy and it was my family crossing the road i would have given off a death stare regardless of the circumstances, some people are pretty protective...

but yeah i'm come across many an idiot who crosses the road and doesn't even look at whether or not i'm coming down the road and i have to brake because of their incompitance...

Happened all the time when I was delivering pizza.

One time a bunch of kids sat in the middle of the road and wouldn't move, granted I knew them and we have history they just wouldn't move so I choose the biggest gap that the car would get through - problem is his hand was in the way. Warned him - he didn't move. Went over it.

Coming out they held big palm tree branches infront of the car??? WTF? As if I care if dominos car gets scratched?

People always used to ride on the road and not get out of the way thinking they were hell funny.

[Bobjones]

The kids in my street get off the road REAL quick in our estate, even when I am in the corolla...why...

Well they are left unattended, so I think it was my duty to inform the local neighbourhood watch about unruley kids throwing balls at people houses...After the local newsletter came out I could hear the parents yelling at their kids...good to live in a snobby suburb where your neighbours care what others think of them...

That and the fact that my brother does not slow down as he drives a 4wd...like any other tool in our suburb (I think there is a Prado/Landcruiser/Pajero to every family...

see, now this is the reason i want a crowd plow, no issues then, just clear road

buy a crowd plow!

I totally agree with this topic but in my area its pricks on pushbikes. They ride in the middle of the road like they're the only ones around and they get pissed off at you for nearly clipping them when they're the pricks that didn't look where they're going!

One dickhead on a bike had a go at me when I beeped my horn, if I didn't beep he wouldhave been laying on the floor and I wouldhave been the worst person in the world! I gave hiom a mouth full but that don't acheive anything... they make bike lanes & pedestrian crossings for a reason and these pricks don't use em. I say f*k em all!

Hey Jason,

I hope you calm down and feel better about the situation soon.

In reality that tosser's life seems almost over to me anyways, a wife and kids and they are walking instead of cruising around in a Stagea

[MarkR33]

this country is filled with idiots

more so than any other i would say. on a per head basis we seem to produce more dumb ass hole people than anywhere else in the world. usually violent idiots at that. Well done though for keeping your cool about some cock head on the street and just laughing it off as a loser unhappy about his life.

You should have just run them down flat and use them as pizza toppings!

[NFAA32]

i hate that too.. in next sorta town from were ilive is half old people and half young familys..

i guess the young familys rekon every driver on the road is old people and dont mind if they just walk over the road when ever.. so i now make it a point of coming as close to a pedestrian as possible.. this is also in car parks...

CARS STILL HAVE RIGHT OF WAY...

what ever happened to look left and right before walking?

[predator]

You should have got out and gave him a complete serve yourself.. sounds like they deserved it.

"I was going well well under the speed limit, I stopped WELL short of you, and there was no possible way I was going to injure you - now get the f**k out of my face and cross somewhere a little safer next time, as maybe you won't be so lucky when some ACTUAL moron comes past and collects you".

I have no tolerance for people like that, and it seems the only way they learn if you start harking back at them - then maybe they realise they were the ones being a little stupid. There are designated places for crossing the road, yet these days it seems nobody seems to care.

Hell yeh, I would've gotten out and had a crack at him. f*kn tosser.

See in our suburb, we have the sudanese people. I have no idea what country they think this is, but I tell you, a car goes a hell of a lot faster than a f**king donkey. I swear to god one day they are going to get hit. Middle of the night, walking down the middle of the bloody road... YOU CAN'T SEE THEM!!!

Baaahhahaaha... smile please try living in Footscray... we have the worst of everything here but i'm not going to get into the racial comments now, but lets say they come from a country where they can use their O/S licence to drive here... and have you seen how they drive O/S...?

There was an incident in the Mall @ Footscray a month or so ago where this lady reversed and instead of hitting the brake she pressed the accel. pedal and slammed straight into a dude drinking coffee on the side walk outside a cafe. Well the dumb bitch had no licence... she was african but dun matter what she was she had no f*kn licence cos she was FOB and driving around.... Bit of a boo boo... silly...silly... people.

[geeteaess_turbo]

someone stares at you and you get upset?

f**k man, what are you doing driving a skyline?

[Keegs]

Clearly the guy did more than stare, he was mouthing off and attempting to write down the number plate.

I've got to eat lunch but ill write more about this soon.
