With the so many near misses/crashes and bullying/intimidation/threats I'm going to get cameras...
The last incident was a building subbie who attempted to run me off the road from behind and the side.
Then he wanted to fight me.
Which got me thinking...
Has anyone successfully crushed a hoons car as a result of threats of violence and intimidation/ dangerous driving?

no. crushing of hoons' cars is reserved for serious stuff like doing donuts and burnouts.

Should red light offending cyclists have their bikes crushed?

Teen 'hoon' gets licence then loses car - http://www.perthnow.com.au/news/western ... 6232110664
A 19-YEAR-OLD will have to surrender his car after allegedly driving more than 50km/h over the limit within hours of receiving his P-plates.
Police will allege the Shoalwater man was driving a Nissan Skyline north along West Coast Highway in City Beach about 8.30pm on December 12 when he was nabbed on a speed camera driving at 123km/h in a 70km/h zone.
Police said the man was racing against a friend while he had two female passengers in the car.
A surrender notice has been issued for the man's car.
He was charged with reckless driving and will appear in Perth Magistrates Court next month.
