Scarey Overtaking

[Burger]

A local road racer back home ( doncaster ) I hung around with hated scooter riders, ( not sure why, I think it was cos he had one for so long ) He loved to buzz them at massive speed as close as he could possibly get to them. I thought it was funny sometimes but most of the time it was just plain stupid.

Any way one night I get a call from him and I pick him up from Hospital as he had been in a bad smash. He tells me on the way home that he was coming down the great north road dual carriageway ( pitch black this place was ) when he said he saw a scooter in lane one, so he thought game on. He twisted on reckoned he was doing well into 3 figures when he realised that it was not a scooter but an old banger with its right hand tale light out so the scooter he thought he was buzzing at a tonne with an inch to spare was a car. He made contact, went straight over the roof off the bonnet and proceeded to bounce down the road breaking both his collar bones and fore arms. :w00t:

My point is, these people get whats coming to them, lets just hope these pr**** dont take anyone else out with them whilst their being idiots.

This applies equally to car drivers,i just think most road users have almost zero lane dicipline on motorways,. Head west on the m40 and after the M25 junction up to wycomb you may as well be driving on the continent,its 4 lanes with the outside totally congested and the inside 2 lanes empty.

…and some tw*t way up the outside lane doing 65 so they’re all crawling along… I usually pass them on the inside lane making bellringing gestures, it really winds me up.

Trouble is, if you pass on the inside, it’ll be you that gets 3 points, not them. You can’t win. Be careful!

i had a good’un on me way back from norfolk on weds, pootling down the M25 at fair speed when a TW*T on a bandit 6 decided when he joined he was going to shoot across straight to the fast lane without looking…if i hadnt heard him and slowed he would have put me straight into the armco for sure …and you know what got me the most, draggin jeans, alpinestars jacket, decent lid BUT no gloves and wearing trainers! obviously so he can get a better feel on the levers while practicing his gp riding :doze:…mind you dont think he appreciated my quick overtake and stubby race can in his face for 3 junctions after

Most of the GRRR! monments on my commute involve other bikes or scooters riding like ****.

If he carries on like that natural selection will take him out of the game - evolution innit.
