Dickhead truck driver

[Nelso]

Just curious nelso did the cowboy seem like he was speeding in the truck? Haven't seen anything mentioned

Speeding as in over the limit or too fast for the corner? He was definitely going way too fast for the corner, but the speed limit through there is 100km/hr so I doubt he would have been doing more than that through that corner.

I lost my SD card with similar recordings of that 'ARSCHLOCH' and his "Karntwood" truck, could kick my arse for not securing the zip of my bag properly. Card could be found on/near corner Kings Hwy/National Route 52 and Millpost Ln Bungendore.....

It was the most dangerous PHI-CDT moment in my books.

Looking at that he would have been going to fast for the corner and probably hasnt seen yous to be going that wide (day dreamin or something) and if he did know you were there ,well let the law take care of that part.But at the end of the day even if you or any other motorist wernt there he should still obey the law and stay to his lane unless under difficult tight corners like Macquarie Pass where you need to hog the other lane to make the corner but at a cautious speed and no oncoming traffic

I think most of the logging driver think they are owners of the road around there, coming home from PI today, we were following a unladen logging truck doing at least 160k in the rain, with the spray it was throwing off we had no chance of passing until it turned off Nth of Cann River. And I thought Vic was pretty harsh on speedsters, with saying that we never saw 1 camera car on our travels from last Thursday till today, in fact the most police we actually saw was at the Entry to PI and cruising in and around the circuit.

160K ? I know it can be done but only if a mechanic alters the rating on the trucks computer by a workshop laptop,if that was done he his boss and the company would be jailed and fined severly and even when they tamper with the limiters themselfs the truck still wouldnt reach quiet those speeds

I think the 160 might be a tad overstated maybe 120 or 130 max, it always seems like they are going faster when you can't pass them......

That time I saw you Gos that I had the GT and trailer- in Victoria I had a B double up my arse at 160 trying to tap the back of my trailer to freak me out. I lost him on every rise and he'd catch me on the straight . 160 is all the GT had.

what would our friendly KSRC poleecman Aardie have to say about about these pics...?

You already know the answer Smitty. Take the footage to the coppers, provide a statement and leave it at that. The arse-clown deserves a ticket, or to be put before the courts. At the correct speed they are easily capable of staying on their side of the road.

I once stopped an unladen truck on the highway to Sydney. He was traveling at well over 160! Suffice to say, his employer wasn't impressed that they had to send another driver out to collect the truck and now licenceless driver.

Damn Employers would be pissed if that was done in vic. Impounding a truck would be fairly interesting.

[s man]

So what if he disconnects the phone, he does have a number plate FFS you don't have to be a detective to work that out. Again GO TO THE COPS!

Probably not the main point to my post, my fault for not explaining myself. If this guy ends up being of the end of any action as a result of this eg. court, the last you want to do is give him the ammo of becoming the victim because he has been continually harassed by the motorcycling community as a result of the incident.

"Your honor, as a result of this incident my client has been continuously harassed via his mobile phone and other media, he has definitely now more aware of what he has done and is very remorseful. Surely that is punishment enough."

Or maybe ACA will have a story of how rogue motorcyclists have been seeking vigilante justice by harassing a poor defenseless hard working, all Aussie truck driver.

There's always a spin. Lets leave it to the police to deal with for now, yeah?

Yeah too true, Im just that kind of guy, I like revenge. But like you say, if it goes to court, you dont want to give him ammo. Fully understand, me jumping the gun again.
I still think ACA or Today Tonight would run the story for sure, & that will only be good, so people can see just what us as mototcyclests have to deal with on a dayley basis..

In a lot of cases they dont have much choice .By that i mean "if you dont do it i will get someone that will" From company boss (push push push)
