Offence Description: |
I was on the main road in claremont (cape town) approaching the
intersection of main road/campground road (facing rondebosch)
just passed mont clare on my right, when a scooter came out of the
mont clare parkade and turned right onto the main road. 1st road
offence was turning right from an exit which is only a left turn
(marked on the road).
he then slowed down in the 'right only lane' as if driving aimlessly to
cross lanes to the left of me, also no indicator (despite there being
a green arrow for a right turn only) so i hooted at his poor driving
skill and obvious lack of awareness for others on the road. it was a
light touch to the hooter i.e. a civil way of saying "you're being
careless here". he stayed in the right lane seemingly on purpose, to
the right of me.
so by the time i got to the now red traffic light, he began shouting at
me (my window was down) and spat at me (much of it landed on
the window as i rolled it up pretty quickly). then he proceeded to
jump the red light by crossing over 3 lanes to turn left into protea rd
(where the mercedes benz dealership is). apparently my hooting
disturbed him - that's what he said along with other expletives!
c'mon was that necessary!! shoddy driver, a danger to others and
totally in the wrong on all counts. |
