Just write "selfish illiterate foccer" on the windscreen with lipstick. (Sure your Mrs would have one she don't like). It's a sod to get off. Mind you then he'll be even more myopic on the way back and probably knock more bikers off.

Is it really so foccing difficult or time and energy consuming for people to use indicators?!? :groan

I love the ones who don't indicate on round about. Always fun trying to second guess which way they're going....
Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!

So as he's now out of my way i carry on to go past him and he then goes for a left hand u-turn. Wtf? The air horn came in to play, and my headlights shining through his passenger window gave him a bit of a fright, then he apologised.

My IAM observer got taken out big time by a BMW doing an illegal and unexpected u-turn. He moved left, she assumed he was taking the next left, continued past in the right hand lane of the dual carriageway only to find he had moved left to get a bigger swing at the (no u-turns signed) gap in the central reservation. She had to be taken away in the air ambulance, and the BMW driver just trotted out some lame crap to the judge about being a CEO and needing his car, he did get done but not nearly commensurate with the damage to her and her bike that he wilfully caused by being a typical BMW cockwomble. He had no chance of doing a runner though - the car behind him was old bill.

Not so with my accident where the young scrote turned into me without looking or indicating and got away with it because it was his word against mine that he signalled. :o

Sorry to hear that Freck. It really is luck of the draw who's on the road near you, whether they are good drivers or whether they'll stop if they witness something. I got knocked off my old FZR600R by some buffoon diving into a parking space on the other side of the road just as I was overtaking. He knew it was his fault but insurance said I hit rear quarter so they blamed me. Then some old dear came along and started having a go at me about how all the bits of plastic fairing were making the place untidy and I'd better pick them up! I was like WTF? Yeah of course madam, as soon as I get this f***Ing motorbike off me I'll get the broom out! FFS!

Dear Lord! Some people are amazing (if that's the right word).
I've had a couple of clumsy cnut moments where I've dropped the bike and people just don't offer to help, they just look at you as though you're a circus act.

Back in my courier days I had a woman step out from behind a van, right in front of me. BANG! Me, her and my bike all over the road. Within seconds a lynch party congregated all muttering about how bikers are a danger on the road and I must have been going too fast etc.
No fucker asked if I was OK or offered to help.
I used to not give a foc, then I discovered Red Bull and now I don't give a flying foc !!!

:agree
Nowdays you have to go that slow to avoid the potholes and numpty pedestrians who step out without looking.
Another ex-Fazer rider that is a foccer again
