Almost didn't get to write this blog.
Coming down the Bruce Highway this morning (that;s in QueeRZland) doing 100 k on inside of 3 lanes.
Little red Ford in centre lane doing about 95 k suddenly swerves (almost uncontrollably) into my lane.
Thank Fuk for many years of driving experience in all conditions and competitive driving PLUS what turns out to be very effective ABS system otherwise I would be DEAD - permanently terminated.
Effing useless 20 something dimwitted bird had reached over to grab phone and start texting.
I figured I was Gone - gone - gone.
Must have had less than 1 millimetre from the guard rail and about 1 millimetre off picking up her back bumper.
If I had not been pulling up so fast she would have got me - actually ended up with half her car directly in front of mine
Leaning on horn (car horn not mine) she swings back completely across HER lane and into the outside lane to try and take out a car on that side.
Won't be going to Gym for cardio session for a week.
BUT WAIT - there is more
This useless bytch didn't miss a beat - when I went past her screaming obscenities that have never been heard in Australia before - guess what this brain dead imbecile is doing - you guessed it - went straight back to texting, obviously telling her friend how close she came to killing half a dozen people on the highway.
Last I saw of her in my rear view mirror she was drifting back into the inside lane focused on her phone.
Where's a gun when you need it most?

Mate I hear ya. I drive trucks of a night and get all these same dickheads as well. The worse ones are the 457 Visa dickhead taxi drivers. I was driving one night when this dickhead taxi driver decided to enter King Georges road via Punchbowl; road. No indicator or even looked. Was lucky enough to be aware and blasted the horn and the wanker shit himself and went up the gutter. These clowns are everywhere mate
Was a 100 zone with a bloody cop 100 metres in front of us.
Rider - I have "worked" the rubber bands in the Gogo and it now does 101 (down steep hills with a tail wind) but it does get it up there.
I reckon all these dopes should be limited to 1.2 liter 4s. Plus you text and drive, lose license for 3 months minimum.
Agree mate. And be made to sit the road rule and driving test again. Its wankers that put kids like my son and his gf that are red p's in the same group as them. Not being biased but these 2 kids are very good drivers and seem a lot more mature than their age
I try not to stereotype but the amount of ridiculously dangerous things I've seen done on the roads by P platers is staggering. Especially green P platers.
A mate of mine has just had her third accident since gaining her P's a year ago, 2/3 times because of being on her phone. And then you have people complaining about the new phone rules for P platers.
100km spoedlimit on a 3 lane highway Col ? Fuckking hell at that speed I can usually text , eat a KFC Ultimate box and finger the Mrs all at the same time .
