omg that happened to me once in my GT-t I was cruising along in the left hand lane (the main road in blacktown just after the pub & before the hospital and heading to the tafe) There was 3rd lane for people to turn right and out of nowhere a girl walks out in the middle of the road from between the cars queued up on the right, she was wearing sunnies and listening to her ipod crossing the road where she wasn't supposed to and not paying attention to anything, it all happened in a split second I braked honked my horn and she jumped back just in time, but not quick enough for her to get hit by my sidemirror

I stopped to see if she was okay and drove her home, luckily just a small bruise :)

scared the sh*t out of me

Accidents caused by someone elseā€™s bad driving that doesnā€™t affect them are awesome.

I was in my 88 magna (my old daily) on the Pacific Highway in Chatswood a few years back. I was heading north in the right lane and was over taking someone sitting in the Railway Street turning shoulder (he was turning across southbound Pacific Highway traffic into Railway Street). The clown swung left into my lane to turn right. I had a car next to me on my left, so pulling left to avoid the car now a foot in my lane a few meters ahead was not an option.

I braked, looked in my rear mirror and saw a Red P Plater in her dads E Class slam her brakes on. She managed to pull up, however the Mazda 6 behind her didnā€™t. The Merc was shunted and ended up with my towbar straight through its radiator. Both the Mazda and Merc were un-drivable and had to be towed. My tow bar was a little scratched and needed a new plastic cover.

Obviously the Mazda 6 was at fault for driving to close to person in front, but it shouldnā€™t have happened at all. The other car that avoided the whole thing probably didnā€™t even realize.

i agree with everything in this thread.

It shits me the most when people are in the right lane, they are going under the speed limit but cruising right next to the car to their left.

Also people that are constantly on the brakes when going down a slight slope.

    • I definitely do recommend having a fab/grinding/dirty shed or area to keep all that grinding dust out of your main shed.Ā  But you're right, it doesn't matter how much room you have you still end up filling it! I might even do a short video which will make it easier to fully take in the horrors of what I've created...
    • Actually No, Iā€™m not as intuitive as u
    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. šŸ˜­ I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
