And then what are the cops going to say if you have clearly edited out the footage?
Bottom line is, I had witness' and all the evidence I needed for something to be done about it. I'm lucky enough as it is that I didn't get in trouble for various driving offences. The police would have known how I avoided being hit.

Bring back the Cane in Schools, young people these days have no Respect & know they can mostly get away with anything.
It all starts from a young age so Discipline them from a young age. They might just grow up to be better Citizens. Good to hear it all worked out Mate |

I seriously blame public liability and all that crap for half the problems in this country.
Like you said, gone is the day of the respected 6 foot + police officer who wouldn't hesitate to club these idiots. Criminals have way too many rights and too much power these days. And like I said, I believe a lot of it has to do with public liability. I think it's time to start trimming the herd a bit. Clean up the streets with a gun or biff.

My home room teacher in grade 12 was a hottie. 22 and straight out of uni. I woulda dragged my ol fella through a mile long of broken glass to hear her fart through a walkie talkie.

my suggestion was that if a nicer verbal transaction had been shared, the trouble may not have started. you can be nice to some people, excuse yourself once you are finished and everyone is happy. if people are offended they usually get their back up - and with mates around they feel the need to act it does not always happen that way, but giving an answer that may be considered attitude, can be asking for trouble. being nice sure beats fearing for your life and wondering if your car will be stolen, damaged etc. in short, there are many idiots/try hards in this world. why give them fuel to have a go at you. sometimes you have to fight, but walking away wins nearly everytime |
