Motorists do the darnedest things. Today’s idiot du jour was the passenger in the silver Barina, P-plates, Victorian registration ###-###. There it was stopped at the traffic lights about five cars from the front, he decided to throw the passenger door fully open in order to spit on the ground as I was riding up on the left. Somehow I managed to just stop before ramming his head into the open car door. Maybe I shouldn’t have braked so hard, maybe having his head hit the door might have helped him think in future…
Next set of traffic lights I was keeping an eye out backwards — just in case the driver decided to try something even more idiotic to endanger my life — luckily not, but I did get to watch her drive through the Dandenong road intersection after the lights were red. Oh yeah, and two of their three brake lights are defective.
