Default Couple of little things...

Was on the way home today cruising along the beach road, following one extremely nice SV8, black + mags + tint, it was an amazing machine and sounded great. Thought it was just a guy and his girl out for a nice drive, till i saw him throw a bottle of what looked like west end (SA beer) out the window and down the cliff Which i thought was just plain stupid, in that case is there anything that could be done about having it chased up, such as calling the police and giving them the rego?
I also noticed his left brake light was out, as was the left brake light of another commodore i saw on the way home. I vaguely remembering my tafe teacher telling me why it was generally one side of the brake or lights that went first, could any elaborate?
And I don't want this turned into a fight because it was a holden. I don't mind them and it was a great looking car.

You can ring the epa and report him. if the guy contests it you will have to agree to give evidence. How do I know? I got slugged 205 for throwing a bottle out the window in geelong.

Littering is one thing it can be called. But at the time it was road rage. I threw the bottle (plastic and half full) at a vn commodore that nearly took the front off my mates ed xr6 after changing lanes.

He won in the end by reporting me. Oh well.
