What’s so important?

The number of effing car drivers I see on their phones while stopped at a traffic light 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ they never learn and the fine should be $2,000 or your vehicle is impounded that second and later sold to offset funeral costs for motorcyclists that are killed in accidents directly related to drivers texting and driving.

Why motorcyclists? Well the people most at risk on our roads that would suffer the MOST damage in any collision are motorbikes. Not bicycles, they have a safer footpath option and lower speeds and their own bike lanes and hefty fines for passing them too closely. Motorbikes do not have these options.

Today, for example, 6 people spotted (and rev bomb shamed) of which 5 were fucking women. Jesus Christ ladies we are better than that!!!! Who or what is so important you put my and others lives at risk?

Cockhead 1: Ann St in the city. You can spottem way back … leaving a big gap to the car in front. Not moving when the light goes green or the tragic in front of them advances. I look over as they didn’t move up so I could filter through. Shuffle the bike up a little, yep on their phone. What all car drivers need during peak hour with plenty of cars and HEAPS of pedestrians need is a loud bike going vrroooommmmm right next to their door.

Cockhead 2: it’s busy getting onto the Story Bridge so I will whip out my phone to help merging. This one got a window tap and a serve of “idiot” before I revved the fuck outta them and outta there. Sorry I don’t want or need to be anywhere car drivers not paying attention.

Cockhead 3: Kangaroo Point where the road splits to Main Rd and the other heading along the KP cliffs to reach the freeway to Gold Coast. Window down, shot music blaring, bogan arm out the window. Drive past and yell “PHONE DOWN FUCK FACE” as turned back to give him the finger

Cockhead 4: Lights at the Gabba (just after Maccas). Window down while texting and smoking. Give her a huge feckin rev bomb causes her to drop her phone on the floor. PS – you won’t see that again until your destination hun, I have the same fat gut that prohibits bending down to retrieve a floor based phone in a car including while in the front passenger seat. Called out “GET OFF YOUR PHONE YOU STUPID CUNT!” for good measure … she tried to say fuck you back but got another earful 😂😂😂

Cockhead 5: Puttering along by PA Hospital holding up everyone behind and times other lanes as they wobble along. I CAN SEE YOUR PHONE BEING HELD TO YOUR EAR FUCKWIT!!! Window down so I scoot up beside and rev the fucking fuckery out of my bike to ruin your conversation. Get a scowly look from the driver who winds up the window. Ok do you have any hands on the wheel dickhead???? Gave him my best that-wouldn’t-be-an-issue-if-you-weren’t-on-your-phone impersonation. Yeah get fucked prick.

Cockhead 6: now on the Ipswich Mway and significantly less people keen to be on their phones on 1. The motorway 2. During peak hour. Counted my blessings too soon didn’t I? Almost home, at the Woogaroo and Forest Lake Boulevard traffic lights) and I filter to the front.

Old mate (matelette for a female???) on my right happily tapping away. Rev bomb, driver is surprised and looks up at me, gets the tsk tsk head shake then concedes you’re right, ok I will put it down. Notice a cop car directly opposite us at the lights and point to the driver, to the cops, to the driver, to the cops and put my hand up to show she’s on her phone 🤙🏼. She sees them now and flaps her hands as if to say sshhh sshhh I put it down already, I put it down!!! Shake my head again as the light goes green and I pull out at a very average pace due to aforementioned porkers 😂😂😂😂 nothing to see here officers 👀

Certainly not the only time I have seen it and won’t be the last. Hear many stories from many riders all the time. The message is not getting through and being able to say I told you so when I’m in a halo brave is NOT going be to any consolation.

So while the police are cracking down on loud pipes and handle bars too high the actual killing machines are still driving around the streets.
