Was behind a car on the A40 on a sunny day today…the car some forgien number plate starting with CEZ etc first he was in fast lane not giving me way to over take next thing I notice was the back passenger having a grin on his face…then to have a laugh I am assuming at my expense they started the car wipers and all the screen liqiuid cleaner **** came on my face…they were so rude and were laughing at me…very very nasty people…
That is bang out of order, but in a way quite funny to? :Whistling:
And your point is?
So you would not mind if it happened to you?
There is no point in anything now days…just some thing to post…
I hate having a free visor /bike/leathers wash. Why is it that cars nearly always seem to have those things maladjusted?

arse’oles!
I saw a biker once kick an offside wing mirror off a car on the hanger lane gyratory by just raising his left leg and accellerating past the car. Not that I condone this type of behaviour mind.
Anyway there are much worse things some cagers do for fun out there… Soapy water is the lest of your worries. Some people in this world have no respect for other humans.
Terrible behaviour…why didn’t they wait until you were tucked up in bed with a hot milk before cleaning the windscreen??:w00t:
have had that done to me. Not impressed but i got my own back when they were stuck in traffic a few minutes later…
I’ve had it done to me and actually find it quite funny…you are all togged up in bike gear anyway so what does it matter? I drive to work now in the car and my mate rides…i’ve aimed my rear spray thing out and to the right so every time he leaves 20 mins later and cruises past when i’m just down the road I try and give him a good soaking…makes for some light entertainment on the morning comute 
Those commuting hours must just fly by.
In my first round of motorcycling, many years ago, if someone pissed me off I would wait until they stopped in traffic then slowly ride up to the side of the car and bang like feck on their roof…use to frighten the crap out of them, then I’d ride off before they could catch me. Sad, but fun!
Thats a wing mirror violation if ever i heard one. The trick is not to get to close and risk coming off, if you have knee sliders make sure you get the knee out far enough that if it snaps back you’re not going to fall off. There’s always kicking in the rear light cluster or headlight. Alternatively rip their wipers off. You need to get creative there’s no real one way, just go with what feels right at the time.
:i hate that when people do that:D:P:D:P:D:D

vauxhall ones are the best ,even though it does no real damage to the mirror , they just come off the fixings and hang there , but the first impression is wonderful
sounds funny…NOT, what about when they fill the washer bottles with the neat stuff from garage your riding behind VISOR open and it goes in ya eyes ? fugging stings actually
no i agree not funny at all , thats why they lose the mirrors ,if i’m in my van i always make sure there are no bikes behind before i press the button to wash the window …
and on the other hand a nice clean posh car behind is always a good time to do it …
particully if he or she is on the phone at the time
ok mate no offence but what were you doing so close to them??? Did you try to bully a car out of the fast lane by going really close to them??
Even in a car if someone in front of you uses the washers your get their crap on your windscreen… now as a biker… if you ever done some kind of safety riding you get told that riding dead in the middle of a lane is suicide… because oil and crap goes right there… if there is an incident you get stuck behind the care and you won’t get out, for example in slow moving traffic, if guy in front breaks you break car behind breaks you stuck between them and you won’t get out.
So how do you ride properly?? you ride on the car’s tyres area… yes either left or right on a lane… best place to avoid incidents, crap on road or washers…
So next time don’t be so close right behind the car in front and in the middle of the lane… if you put yourself in a bad spot for an idiot it is only your fault. You should plan overtakes or undertakes well ahead if you see idiots hugging the overtaking lane…
As for the washer thing - errrrr, my mate did it to me and i nearly dropped the bike - laughing! hehehe ![]()
I was well back but the speed was high…thats why…
