The Broomstick

#31 Unread post by safety-boy »

about the oring with the broom stick. He should have been charged with attempted murder.
I have been tempted to add a hammer hanger to my bike, like you might see on some choppers. The ball-peen reprisal is awfully tempting at times... But, I smash a window, I'll go to jail. This guys clotheslines you... That's no different than hitting you with the car intentionally. Obviously, it was intentional... "I swar ossifer, I jus painted that broomstick and needed to dry it!"

Now, my two cents on splitting lanes. I don't really do it, as it is illegal here, but I have been known to "change lanes" between two cars that are rear-hub to front-hub... That couldn't be the same thing... :angel:

It is a real shame that there is practically a whole other lane between cages. Just empty space waiting to be sped through.

Maybe a cager saw the incident and used his cellphone for something useful? If the cops were looking for him anyway, no better place to catch him than a traffic jam!

well i was on a lesson on sunday there.We were heading back from town, through the city center and we hit rush hour traffic after the football match. We had to filter down the road that was the only way to get back as the traffic wasnt moving. So my instructor just said to follow him. We were filtering at very low speed and it was safe. Got some angry looks and someone shouted its illegal, until he looked on his other side and saw a police motorcycle doing the same. It was quite funny.
Who will guard the guards?
