ryancat-85 Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Right, am not to happy today ! This is what happened, see what you think and say if i was ever in the wrong ? As i was coming home from work this afternoon stuck in convoy of traffic. In the rear view a seen some idiot in VW jetta was over taking a car at a time, getting no where ! he overtook me and cut into a space that wasn't there. Got to a crawler lane just outside Elgin, there was the VW another car and me overtook a bus, i carried on and past the car and pulled in just in front of the VW. As we got to the top of the crawler lane the VW then pulled out to overtake me again going on to chevrons and faced a head on with another car ! he then slapped on the brakes and pulled in behind me, giving me what looked like a mouth full of abuse ! After i flipped a very deserved bird out the window[:@] i got my apprentice to take down his reg number. 10 Min's back into Elgin the police pull me over and say that it was reported that i was racing, i told them what iv just told you and gave them the VW drivers reg number. They said they would try and find him and get back to me. anyone think anything will come of it ? Ryan
abbott Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 i wouldnt have thought so they have to prove you were racing , its someones word against yours and if they catch up with mr x in the jetta i hardly think hes gonna admit to racing either ,, where was this alves by any chance ??
ryancat-85 Posted June 9, 2007 Author Posted June 9, 2007 aye, the 1 just out of alves. Am still raging bout it, he tried to make it out like it was my fault !!
abbott Posted June 10, 2007 Posted June 10, 2007 same as the one at brodie mate !! there always a bitch for people thinking they can get further throught the que than they actually can !!
act Posted June 10, 2007 Posted June 10, 2007 Woulnt worry about it mate! If they were going to do anything, they would have reported you for the offence there and then! Plus they would have to follow up your complaint about the other driver if they were going to prosecute you! So unless theres hundreds of people who all took issue with your driving, then its never going to go anywhere!
Richie Cross Posted June 11, 2007 Posted June 11, 2007 It seems like an 'independent' party might have reported you rather than the VW driver. Don't think he'd be that daft. If he was on his own, he wouldn't have corroboration against you. You, with your apprentice, had corroboration with regards to his manner of driving. I wouldn't worry. We get a lot of calls about people driving. People just wanting to report it. A lot of the time, the person is spoken to, might deny it or make out that it wasn't THAT bad and there would be insufficient evidence to proceed with anything anyway.
