Default Re: Road Rage in Oz

All too true... It seems to be on the increase here. Most people give you a wave when they are merging and you let them in, or they are coming out of a servo and you leave them a gap to get through, though for some reason people are really on the edge and the waiving is on the decrease ant tempers rising.

Asside from road rage there are also the element here here that are cruising around looking for trouble and targetting nice cars. Lately there are those that bump into the back of the car in front and when the driver gets out of their car they are jumped and the car is stolen, dumped and burnt.

They used to just steal cars though now with the imobilisers compulsory on al post 2001 cars, if someone wants your car they usually assault the driver and take it that way. I know which option I prefer.
