Amazing! Invisible F6 in Canberra...!

[steen]

Hi fellas,

I've been driving an F6 in Canberra the last week & am convinced that there's something wrong with the car. The only thing I can pin it down to is that F6s become invisible in Canberra! I haven't seen another one yet, so it proves my theory!

I was almost written off twice yesterday. First, a rather absurd P-plate female in a Celica almost chopped my nose off. She'd been weaving in/out of "traffic", attempting to get past a couple of busses. I was in the right hand lane & she decided that she needed to do a right turn from the middle lane, there & then. Close... She was so proud, she went the finger... :nutsycuck I'm 6'2", 92kg...

Even better some 30mins later, a clever fellow in a Focus flashed through a give way T-intersection @ ~70km/hr. His car skipped sideways into the oncoming lane. Had I exercised just a smidgen more right foot in the preceeding few seconds, he would've t-boned my car... He appeared somewhat shaken for a bit but composed himself & took off @ >100km/hr in an 80km/hr zone.

Also, what is it with Canberra & speed limits? Are they completely discretionary? I admit I drive around like a granny - although not the granny in the terri that smoked me at every light change down Northborne Ave & lurched with every brake application. It's safer being in traffic with hoons... Perhaps cruise-control is mandatory here as everyone does 70km/hr in 40km/hr construction zones & is then too lazy to reset & so continue @ 70km/hr in 80km/hr zones or just as likely, floor it...

In Melb these stunts would earn you a session with lead-pipe wielding mo-fos (not that I condone road rage), let alone the law (eventually)...

Fortunately, I've been in the office all day today...
