Cars used as weapons of the road

Post by gar »

I always said that some people use "cars as weapons" at which my airline captain brother used to laugh. I meant what I said. One day he came along and said "I think I know what you mean about cars used as weapons but what would you say about passenger aircraft used as weapons?"
He was prescient by about four days of 9/11

Aiming at a cyclist with a car by means of gesture, eye contact, turn of the car is a very serious offence yet it is almost impossible to prove that it has been done.

Over the years it has happened to me half a dozen times, and I am certain that others may
say the same.

I wonder how the public may be informed of the seriousness of such an offence, short again of
public discussion leading to regulation or legislation?

It is very little short of a terrorist act perpetrated
by possibly otherwise law abiding people.

A man who drove his car through the upstairs bedroom of a house should have the book thrown at him.

This is what some people do to cyclists and
they have to be wary at all times of such behaviour, and like the pensioners, be out of the way.
