2nd post not a happy post

sitting at a set of lights this morning behing a ford galaxy I know I was in his mirror (I drive as well so know where I need to be to be seen).

All of a sudden his reverse lights come on starts backing up so I beeb he stops no harm, then he starts reversing again I’m now holding down the horn for about 5-6 seconds while he is still reversing and bang straight into the fron of the bike…

Lucky it was so slow so no damage done, but the idiot gets out the car and goes sorry I did see you but I needed to reverse or I would have hit the kerb!!!

not impressed this was after 2 cars pulling out on me this morning.

I’d have his insurance details anyway. What a dick!

That is just plain stupid. Good you were okay and that the bike is not damaged.

London is like big mine field. You just have to be careful wherever you go. And remember not always you can get out in in piece.

Good no harm with you today.

Stay safe!

What an idiot!!! he obviously feels that hitting a biker is a better option than hitting a kerb!!!

Last week going to see B in twickenham, similar thing,…only he was BEHIND me…i stopped cos traffic had stopped for lights, and this car decided to keep coming, bumped my rear tyre and rocked the bike, i turned to see what the hell was going on, and he did it again !!! i couldnt move forward cos a van was in front of me and i couldnt see who was in front of him or if i could get round them safely…so i just kept turning and looking at the guy behind me and then when the traffic moved, gave the ol “*anker” sign, and overtook the van and went on my way…peed me off though…

Blade you mean you kept your cool!:w00t: i’d have had the stand down and been at his window giving him/her plenty of verbal!:crazy:

Me too!

You forgot the golden rule, well the rule that all car drivers use.

You were supposed to put your hand on the back of your neck and say that you are in pure hardcore pain!

Thats what all the car drivers do so why shouldn’t we?

What is wrong with these people?:angry:

Glad there was no damage to you or your bike mate:)

what an ideot

Think he would have received more than verbal, a fist covered in kevlar would have been more appropriate :smiley:

Kn*b

whot a nobber :doze:

sad thing is he prob didnt see you even though you were in plain site, some drivers use mirrors with a quick glance and thats it!

Theres a lot to be said for straight throughs on the limiter;)

Unbelievable :crazy:

HEY !!! so are my michelins !!! :P:D:P

(yeh you were right)…hee hee

Wasp mate, i know what u mean, but at the time it happens, u wonder if youve got time before lights change, traffic moves etc…and if its worth the bother then to get back on your bike with other *ankers beeping at you to move etc…so the hand sign and me moving on seemed better option…there was no way i was going to see that a-hole again …

the same thing happened to my dad

a van in front of him did the same:angry:

this is his ninja zx6-r f3 1997 6000miles from new.

still waiting for insurance to fix it 4months ago:crazy:

that happened to me once, this guy was rolling back to me I didnt use the horn I used my fist…I leant forward and smacked the back of his motor, he stopped, got out and said that i ran into him:D till i pointed to the cars behind who saw it all! He got back in his motor…no sorry mate …nothing! Wonker!
