That guy has REAL problems. I hope the video was passed on to the Police. He needs help before he kills someone. Aussie or not he needs help NOW. :nono:
Insert gun law argument here. :2guns: :police:
Wouldn't last too long in some other places ~ I'd say he was damn lucky the guy he chose to go off on was as patient with him as he was.

yeah that really solves a problem, escalating the level of violence. so what happens when they have a bigger gun than you?
personally I would have just left (or not even stopped in the first place), but then that's why I ride a motorbike so I can leave via means that idiots in tin coffins cannot. also amazing how easily you can disarm a person when you tell them they are being recorded, they know they have to either get the recorder of you (not always easy to do) or modify their behavior.
as for the driver, he really needs some help, something's not quite right upstairs.

Size of the gun doesn't matter. Whoever pulls theirs first wins. Simple as that.

You posed the question "What if the other guy has a bigger gun?" when clearly it's not who has the bigger gun. What matters is who can produce theirs the fastest.
Do you think we would be better off without guns? Do you think that it would keep criminals from committing crimes? You think there would be less murder if people couldn't get a hold of guns?
There's a huge to-do on drug control but look how many different types of drugs are readily available. Does it do any good to try to control peoples' desires? No. It is completely and utterly ineffectual. The only thing you can do is punish them when they act on them.

sorry I don't know much about guns and really have no interest in them. but what I do know is that they are not the solution to problems. I know americans think otherwise and I'm not really interested in trying to convince any americans otherwise because the 2nd amendment is enshrined in the psyche of the american culture. each to their own, but remember there is a fine line between carrying a gun and not being a criminal and the alternative.
So, about the angry guy...
Rule Number 1 - they cannot be reasoned with. Guy doing the recording should have just f%&ked off and been done with it.
Story time....
I was driving along a road with broken white lines. As I am coming along I see a guy ahead on my right (we drive on the left so this means he is on a property on the other side of the road). I am looking at him sitting in hit car, facing towards his property. He glances at me then reverses back across his lane and into my lane - and - stops like that. So.... I go around him and continue on my way.
At the next intersection I am turning left and he is turning right. He needs to wait for both lanes to be clear but not me. My lane is clear and I go and then turn into the gas station. He sees me pull in so abandon's his original intention. I am out of my car, gas flap open and pump is pumping when he comes roaring in and comes to a screeching halt in front of my car. Getting out aggressively and walking towards me I change grips on the pump. I am now holding it with my left hand with the car on my left and my right hand is now free to do whatever I need it to do.
As he is coming up I am thinking.... a jab into the throat will do it if needed and have my plan already thought out. He comes up to me, the pump hose is between us. And starts yelling and screaming about the fact I overtook him when he was stopped in the middle of the road. When he was finished he said, "Well, don't you have anything to say for yourself?"
I took a step towards him, looked him square in the eyes and ever so calmly said, "You are not worthy responding to".
Holy crap. He went of his head. He took a step back, arms started flailing, more yelling, he was gonna call his mate in the police station and have my licensed removed, blah blah blah. I said "Dude, calm down mate, there was never any danger." And that set him off again. At which point my fuel had finished pumping so I put them pump back and walked in to pay.
Following me, he is still going off his head. He walks behind the counter (WTF!), grabs a pen and paper and screams that he is writing my number plate down - and he does. I ask the cashier if he is a friend of hers. She says "no" and looks quite aghast.
I pay and calmly walk out, mentally note his number plate cause I don't trust psychos and drive off puzzled by what had just transpired.

I don't recall there being a problem with guns.
Guns are not the problem. People are going to commit crimes...whether it's with a GUN or with a baseball bat. Don't you understand that? If there was NO SUCH THING as guns...people would still kill each other. I'm pretty sure people killed a lot of other people before guns came about.
You go ahead and try to draw an AK-47 faster than I can pull a derringer out of my pocket. The point is I don't care if you have a .22 and they have a .44 magnum...whoever pulls theirs first is going to win. It's not like if you pull yours...the other guy is just going to be like "Oh, it's just a
derringer" and pull his out. Nobody is that stupid. Everybody is scared, at least to some degree, by guns.

I think both people in that video are idiots. You don't ever stop to argue with a madman. Seriously if someone wants to tailgate you and pull you over for a confrontation take them to a police station. Also don't get out of the car even if they block you in. Keep the window shut, take their number plate, description and call the cops. Also very obviously photograph them with your phone and once they are out of the car you then have the option to hit them with a car (while attempting escape accidentally of course) Also if you stay in the car you can kick your door into them, and then get out while they are winded and beat the crap out of them. Never fight from a disadvantage always take the high ground with club.
P.S I'd go the concealed single shot palm pistol too.

None of that.
I wouldn't have gotten out of the car or rolled the window down, it's useless arguing with a road rager.
So everyone has there stories, I had a dork just about like that at 3am in the morning, I finally thought he was done following me around so I pulled into the village in to go get breakfast before going home and here comes the jerk roaring up in the parking lot(mind you this was pre cellphone days) Guy starts screaming at me to get out of the car I had the windows rolled up and the doors locked. This goes on for about 2 or 3 minutes and he had me blocked in so I couldn't pull away. Finally people come out see this and go back inside to call the PD, but before they can arrive @$$hole decides to try opening my door, that's when he got a view of the business end of of my 1911 I had in the seat beside me. He left before the cops could show up, but not before the manager got his plate number. They picked him up a couple of miles away and he got popped on DUI and possession of meth.

He gets that way sometimes. Remember where he is from: AUSTRALIA!
That's where:
* People are descendents of British prisoners
* Toilets swirl the wrong way
* FOSTERS is their beer
* They cook things on those skinny female dolls (not Ken, the other one)
* They are always upside down
* Their seasons are backwards
* Aborigines haven't learned how to build casinos like our Native Americans have.
So of course you can expect some rage from him rather than a polite "Please...."
Hey Addy,
Before saying Aust is a place where people are "descendants of prisons" it pays to know a little first. Because, you know, you don't want to be picking one small subset of people and using that as some kind of description of a place. Cause, it could then be said the USA is a place where people are related to nutjobs like Marshall Applewhite, Jeffrey Dahmer, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy and so on. That while Technically, yes, there are people who are related to these people, it paints a Misleading Picture.
Fact is, very Very VERY few people in this country are descendants of prisoners. Most come from people who migrated here to make a better life for themselves - just like those who went to the USA. And of those who were prisoners... sure some were not nice people - but - a LOT were sent here (sentenced to Transportation) for such heinous crimes as stealing a loaf of bread to feed themselves.
The Abos don't need to build casinos. They get plenty of free money without gambling establishments.
Michael
Adidasguy got it right.
The white men took our land, so now we take their money. :D
hmmm, I was trying to respectfully withdraw and leave the gun debate alone as it really is not the place for it, but I'm not sure where I "raged" about anything, I simply pointed out that I thought guns were not the answer and even conceded that I would not be able to convince anyone otherwise. I also like how you can criticise my lineage without even knowing who I am, big call that one.

I'm beginning to understand. My humor is not appreciated by you. Sorry.
"Every joke or bit of humor in a forum is to be taken literally and as a personal attack even if it is a complement or not even directed at you".
You have chased me away - at least in any thread you are posting in. No more pissing matches until there is snow on the ground so I can write my name.
Another "this is a pissing contest" implied by you.
In actuality, I have NOT chased you away in every thread I have posted in in which you have too. I don't see me chasing you away in the "Which Manual" thread, the "Unbelievable Spark Plug" thread, the "which bike thread" and so on. Me thinks you might be looking into things too much. Being Selective in your recollections. You might think this is a pissing contest (why else go out your way to tell me you have more posts than me while I was registered here first WTF, why else go back through three years of my posts to find one to make a point), but I'm just having fun.

Think I have mentioned this before?
I am German Descent
Toilets actuall swirl the right way
Dont drink Fosters (its for the tourists only)
Yes we do cook on the Bar B
I dont live upside down? Look at your map
Our seasons are correct and the US does not rule the world
Abo's dont need Casinos as Mister said because we give them everything for free :cookoo:
My rage has nothing to do with being an Aussie its got to do with the attitude of the we are right and you are wrong mentality of a few yankies. :kiss3:
This thread smells like urine now.
HOLY SH!T.... I haven't checked this thread for a while. When I posted the "insert gun law argument here" I expected a few "but guns don't solve it" and "we can't have those bad dangerous things that grow arms legs and load themselves and shoot innocent people in my country" followed by a few "you idiots, guns don't kill people. Husbands that come home early do." and the staple " it my constitutional right". I really didn't think it would get to the part where we talk about how all aussie's are descended from "criminals" and drink Foster's (which for the record, sucks hairy A$$hole). Maybe now we can talk about how the US saved there hides in WWII and we got to screw all their women while they were out being shot up by the Japanese. (hence the retalitory term "seppo") But wait, if we do that we have to talk trash on the Japanese that my brothers in 1st battallion were killing. But then we would run into some paradox where the thread would only continue to repeat itself due to the fact that we all support a Japanese company and "guns " were used in those battles and would eventually "solve" something. But...
On my mother's side most of the people that came to Australia were criminals. One had several wives in different countries and brought them all out to Australia. One had a peg leg and was a convicted smuggler, kind of funny that. Dad's side not sure why they came out. I'm fourth Generation Australian, my descendants are Irish (the criminal side) and Scottish. My Scott side family name dates back to 1066 AD and they were land owners at the time. Where did all that money go? I wish there was more now. I could use it.
What was my point.... umm don't know. I enjoy my twisted family history. Though I do worry about how many people in my lovely country feel they deserve everything handed to them and then have the hide to complain when they contribute nothing to society but bleed it like mad. I suppose it happens in every country but I'm only concerned with mine.
Guns are fine. I'd love an old flint stock pistol. That would be so fun in road rage situation. pulling up at the lights, pouring in your gun powder, loading your shot.Would let people know you were serious. Or a 6 foot broadsword. You cut me off I cut your car off. Wham!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I need more sleep.
Im going to start to carry my bow. If you see me running away, its not cuz im giving up, I just need some room to notch an arrow. Then your in for a world of hurt then a 4 blade broad head puts a 2X2 inch hole in you chest.
Also, i carry my goPro in my glove box. always ready for anything!
My Mk2 Escort always has a camera rolling whenever I drive and the bike has one fitted to its fork too. Sometimes I even remember to turn it on or charge it.
The honda and Z are the only vehicles without cameras and I plan to fix that soon too.

Lots of people carrying recording cameras now. When I bicycle commuted I had three, one rear ward facing one forward bike mounted and one helmet mounted. Glad I did as almost a year to the day ago I was struck from behind and the DVRs caught everything on camera. Needless to say the driver and witness accounts were fairy tales and after now seeing the video the insurance company has to concede their position is not what they though it was. My version of events is accurate to a T since it is a transcription of the video/audio. Would I ride without DVRs now, not on your life.
And your choice of camera is?
Quote from: mister on September 03, 2012, 09:49:49 PM
And your choice of camera is?
On the moto I use a Contour Roam. HD gives good quality picture, wide angle (170 degrees) catches a good perspective and also removes the need for a rear camera as on the helmet it captures the picture in the rear view mirror. Even though its a small picture, it only needs to establish a chain of events. A 32Gb card I think from memory can capture about 16hrs of HD footage. Only has a 2 hour battery life, but I also carry a portable charger for it for longer rides which I do not record all of, just interesting bits.
I also use my bicycle GPS (Garmin 705) to record all my riding, just gives me good info on times, dates, where I was, also handy for a more accurate speed than the speedo, has mapping functions etc, records at one second intervals. Great for long rides that I map out on Google maps, I can convert the Google map route to a GPX file, upload it to the unit and follow it without getting lost along the way. Just did a weekend ride with a group following the GPS/GPX route. Aside from a few riders jumping ahead and having to be chased down for missing turns, the route on the map was brilliant.
The bicycle cameras were only SD, hence I felt the need for more of them. They were slightly larger than lipstick cams, say about the size of two C cell batteries each. Very light, 2 hour battery life and with an 8Gb SD card about 8 hours of recording. Sorry I cannot recall the brand or model as I can longer find them online anymore.
Truckies at work are using something called Car Cam. Suction cup to the windscreen, plug into the cig lighter. Constantly records on a loop. If something happens unplug and you are left with the last 10 minutes. That's what I was told by them. I think this is it http://www.carcam.com.au and ebay results show heaps for cheaps http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_nkw=car+camera

I have cameras in both my ute and my car. Records in 1080 HD and works a treat. Have already had it used as evidence at Nerang Police Station to catch one of those little pricks that thinks it a good idea to point green lasers at your face while you are driving. You really should not point a laser in the face of the person in the car behind you when they have a camera tracking your every move and have a perfect shot of your numberplate. :cookoo:
these ones are similar in operation, but they also have GPS and G-sensors on the X/Y/Z planes. when a jolt is detected that exceeds a set G force (user set), it quarantines a set time amount (user set) out of the loop for later recollection. very nifty. wish they had a weatherproof one for bikes, I'd buy it in an instant.

Yea the coppers were laughing as well and said they could not believe the quality of the footage and wanted to know where to get the camera from for their patrol cars. It turned out the son and his mates had borrowed daddy's car and then proceeded to fool around. Apparently the father dealt with his son worse than the police ever would have. lol

Truckies at work are using something called Car Cam. Suction cup to the windscreen, plug into the cig lighter. Constantly records on a loop. If something happens unplug and you are left with the last 10 minutes. That's what I was told by them. I think this is it http://www.carcam.com.au and ebay results show heaps for cheaps http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_nkw=car+camera

That is what I've in the Esky but it records in 15 minute loops till the memory card is full. Mine has a 32gig card. Sound quality is so so but good enough to clearly hear voices. Picks the engine note of the angry Escort out easily too.

I was readon on one of them that it records in 15 min loops until the car is full - then - keeps recording so the next 15 minutes overwrites the first 15 minutes. Meaning, you'll have 45 to 60 minutes of the lastest footage. From the standpoint of "this is what happend" video evidence, that's a great idea as it means you don't need to manually wipe the card so it can keep going.

Mine all do that as well as straight recording. You can set it to loop at 5, 10 and 15 minute increments.
