What is it with some motorbike riders. Note I say SOME.
I'm so sick to death of hearing motorcyclists say ‘motor vehicle drivers don’t look for motorcyclist, they change lanes without checking for motorcyclists' blah blah blah. Coming from Perth it is well known that many of us don’t know how to drive in a conscientious manner; we can’t merge properly, or give way to others. We are selfish SOB’s whose only aim is to get to where we are going without a care for any other motorist on the road.
So anywho, here I am driving in my 4 wheeled, air bag infused safety bubble listening to some monotonous R&B (aka Rape & Brutalise) crap on the radio -I did check what else was on but it was either the same IQ lowering crap or some nasty 70’s shit (that I’m sure gave me nightmares in my infancy) when some knob jockey on his two wheeled death machine comes roaring up behind me in a merging lane and almost side swipes my shiny paint job to get past. Not only is he speeding like a bat outta hell but he’s weaving between lanes with no indicator. To top it off his passenger is pulling a Titanic style Kate Winslett waving his arms in the air. I half expected to meet this Darwin Awards winner up the road and be scrapping him off the road with my credit card whilst shaking my head trying to convince myself that it was a waste of life.
Why is it that some of these nut jobs hold their and others lives in their own hands with such little regard for their wellbeing. Perth needs more controlled outlets for people to take their ‘toys’ out and to compare them to their friends. Wednesday nights at Kwinana are great for some shits and giggles to find out how fast you can go in a quarter mile but it doesn't teach these nutjobs true driving skills and give them an safe environment where they can race. I’m all for cars and bikes and finding out what they can do but ONLY in a controlled environment. Also, the one thing I’ve noticed out on our streets that these ‘Hoons’ that are so often discussed in our media are not the bike or car enthusiasts that take pride in their vehicles and spend countless $$$’s on them but these carefree imbeciles that think they are invincible and have bikes and cars that are not maintained for the manner in which they are driven.
Vent Over
