You can tell a Qld. driver by the fact that they have
Qld number plates. When you are on a motorcycle
treat them with suspicion and dont assume that they
are responsible drivers !
I always keep an eye out for motorcyclists, give them room and a wave.
Stuff what the law says about riding to the head of the cue, its about survival in a hostile envirenment.
Sometimes you end in a confrontation with a Dickhead,
but its not surprising how weak they become after
they have gained an RM Williams boot impression in a door panel. It's surprising how far some of these hero's will go to avoid a fist fight.
I always drive and ride carefully, with patience and try to be courteous toward other road users but occasionally you meet one of them others.
Nor do I carry a weapon in my vehicles other than my
stockwhip which comes in handy against bite dogs
and Taipans. Its funny how quickly a bite dog is brought to heel after the owner has felt the tip of a whip on his ear !
Cheers.
PS: when I die I want to come back a 150 year ago.
