C*ck of the week – 1O NIS

I drove back from Wellington today, by and large it was an uneventful trip with almost no fools and nice paced courteous driving. Cars towing pulled over, so did trucks so no one was held up, it was actually very pleasant.

That is until I hit the Southern Motorway at the Bombays.

This cock in a Mercedes Benz CL320 with the registration 1O NIS came roaring up behind me, sat a nano-metre off my rear bumper, then flashed his lights, then his indicators, then swerved from side to side and finally raised a fist at me. (I looked up the rego on Carjam but it doesn’t seem to have the details, it was definitely 10 NIS, and definitely on a Merc) With that number plate the cock obviously likes paying with furry balls.

At the time I was overtaking and doing about 105km/h….my estimate of his speed until he reached me was in excess of 130km/h. Literally he wasn’t there and then he was and I am very vigilant with my mirrors.

His cock like behaviour annoyed the hell out of me but I was tired after driving nearly 7.5 hours and so couldn’t be bothered toying with the cock. I filed away his licence plate and car model for a blog post.

As I moved over he roared up the inside and nearly dropped a wheel into the grass at the median, so impatient he was to get past, then he did the same thing all over again with the car that was about 100 metres in front of me, this person though did have the patience to fool with the cock, slowing down and driving for a prolonged period of time right beside another car so he couldn’t pass. The swerving and light flashing and mad indications and carry on continued until Drury when the cock in the Merc then cut across two lanes to get to the on-ramp lane and scoot round every one. That was the last I saw of him.

If anyone deserves a coining of his car it is this cock. One thing is for sure, you never know who is on the road in front of you or who you piss off, this cock pissed off a blogger with a well read web site.

    I think you made a typo in the 4th paragraph. You actually were doing 98km/hr, isn’t that right?

    If it’s any consolation, the driver you refer to will probably wrap his merc around a power pole sometime soon and that’ll be the last ANYONE sees of him. Hopefully he doesn’t take out anyone else at the same time, though.

    We get this all the time between Wellington and Masterton. Mercs figure substantially in the stats. Call it in when it hapens – *555 – And keep the offender in sight if you can do so safely. They’ll scramble to pull the wanker out of the line, and at least piss him off by delaying his mad rush long enough to suss him out. Good outcome – He’s ticketed. Better outcome – He’s done for something else and car impounded. Best outcome – loss of licence, loss of car, loss of freedom. We can hope.

    Treat the merc drivers like every other inconsiderate lout on the roads. Call it in. Get those that are employed by us to manage our safety on the roads to do their job. They love it. It’s a way of life.

      I heard about an off duty traffic police sergeant allegedly indulging in misbehaviour on the Rimutaka Hill. His trick was to prevent cars behind using the short passing lanes (they are intended for trucks but those wanting to travel slowly can use them to good effect to get that queue off your tail). He was allegedly indulging in other undesirable driving practices. My friend finally managed to overtake him – it appeared to be a tight but manageable.

      He later complained to the cops who initially took the complaint seriously – the response was a ticket for dangerous driving and he reluctantly accepted lawyer’s advice for a plea bargain to downgrade it to careless driving. It is probable that if he had not complained there would have been no ticket.

      He also complained to the then Police Complaints Authority who as usual waited for any court case and closed the file without action upon the careless driving conviction.

      He later ended up behind the cop’s private car in Whitmore St Wellington and when the cop saw him the cop could not get away quick enough.

    how good is your car? I normally try to make these c%nts rear end me by slamming on the brakes.

    No one dies from whiplash – but they get new cars!!!!!

    Hmmm – not that I doubted you, but also did a carjam search – this is what I found:

    SUZUKI GP125 1984 (in Blue)
    Plate: 10NIS
    Created on: Sat, 15 Jan 2011 22:37:32 +1300 today

    I smell a rat…

  • willnz

    It’s I0NIS.

    And the guy is probably confused. His car, being a UK import, reads in miles. Obviously he thinks you’re going far too slow for the 100 MPH motorway. :p

  • willnz

    Looks like it’s his own car that he brought over – Mr Morris, in his 50′s, moved to NZ a few months ago and currently lives in Remuera.

  • http://zerorocketlaunchers.blogspot.com/ Mr. Infinity

    Oh, no! You’re inciting violence through your right-wing hate speech (because, oooooooobviously all right wing speech is hate speech) against 10nis!

    Revolt, Resist, Revolution!

    • mediatart

      Wheres that fly swat ……?

      BTW , you need an ideology for a revolution, otherwise rabble will be strung up from the lamp posts

      • The Gantt Guy

        Steady on, Tart, we don’t *do* ideologies in New Zealand politics. We are “centre-right” or “centre-left”. That way, anything we say can mean anything we want, and a smiling, waving fool can remain top of the pops. If we did ideologies, there might actually be some difference between the two main parties.

        That said, you have inadvertently spoken the truth. Possibly for the first time in your life.

        Cam, don’t get the bacon involved at all. This fool now has all the publicity he could ever want. It’s likely he will at some point lose business (whatever it may be) at some point in the future. Google his name and The Whale is the top 4 hits. Not a good outlook for his future prosperity.

  • toby

    His mobile phone number – I think – is 0220 345 390. I suggest you call that number and politely inquire as to whether he is the chap who drives a merc with the I0NIS plate. If the answer is in the affirmative, then politely inquire as to why he thinks he is king of the road.

    I absolutely despise these sort of people. At the very least, file a roadwatch report via the police website. I know it’s not much, but people like him will build up a lengthy list of complaints against their name until the cops eventually have a go at them.

  • kevin

    here it is rego…’ ionis ‘ Black Merc station wagon. Love personal plates, makes it easy to remember.

    • willnz

      Yep, he owns this one too. IONIS and I0NIS. (second one is a zero, not an O). Both registered to Carlton Morris.

    Our subject likes Lionel Ritchie, boating, fishing and playing cards with his wife Susan at the Royle Epsom Bridge Club. His home is currently being renovated so the car and contents are in storage.

  • mattyman

    I bet he lives in a rented house and that Merc is either a lease or is financed. He really just thinks hes better than what he is and is playing pretends. But now that he has a Merc he must think hes ‘rich’ and everyone is lesser than him because he drives (not owns) a Euro.
    - Just my guess.

  • mediatart

    There it happens again – rick pricks in all their glory- being unfairly targeted. This will go down on the list like Anne Coulter being pelted by custard pies.
    A new martyr is created!

  • tristanb

    The arsehole was driving like a BMW owner!

    • willnz

      Hey… we’re much more civilised than Merc owners. :p

    • titanuranus

      Lol, tris whats the difference between a BMW and a Hedgehog?

      A hedgehog has its pricks on the outside…….ba boom tish.

      Yeah ,imagine a flash car like that and they don`t fit indicators to them.

  • jabba

    My understanding is that his ancestors invented a very popular dance craze centuries ago so he is famous

  • crabby

    Tailgaiters piss me off, I normally spray my window washers and if they are too close it will go over the roof and get them, Forcing them too to turn on their wipers. My car has a 5l washer bottle and I regularly empty it. I have also thought of putting ‘creative’ substances in the washer bottle for such a purpose.

  • brucehoult

    The guy was clearly being a dick, but it’s not your job to act as a proxy for the cops.

    Sometimes I’m bicycling at 20 – 30 km/h. Sometimes I’m towing a whacking big trailer at 80 – 90 km/h. Sometimes I’m driving normally at 109 km/h, and sometimes I’m going a bit faster.

    If I see someone come from behind at speed it doesn’t matter how fast or slow I’m going or whether I’m over the speed limit myself or not, I let them past as soon as I can — often without them having to slow down.

    Deliberately obstructing someone is a worse offense than driving over the speed limit, both in law and in plain courtesy.
