RANT: Drunk arsehole in park
|

Just had to rant this story out it really shitted me off that I couldn't/didn't do anything in retaliation(sp.).
I was in a park near my place last night with my girlfriend having dinner. I was in my celica. We finished dinner and sat on the swings just for shits and giggles and we see this guy walk over with two dogs off their leash. During the time we were there another family turned up with two dogs on leashes, which where then very nearly attacked by the other two dogs that were off leashes. Anyhow, that's an aside.
The guy with the dogs off leashes walks off to another area of the park. We finish on the swings and get into the celica and drive off down the park. After turing around, we go down a different path in the park to see what was around there. I see the guy in the bushes.
I watch him in the rear view mirror walk up to the side of the road. I get to the end of that road and turn around to come back.
I watch him put his VB can down on the side of the road and then proceeds to stand in the middle of the road with his hands up saying stop. I have to stop infront of him because he's blocking the road. He then walks over, clearly atleast under the influence of alcohol if not even drunk, and proceeds to tell me that I was speeding and that he has kids and pets around and that If I want to race I should do it on the race track. All I do is say OK and keep driving.
What made me so pissed off is that I didn't do anything. I don't have to take that shit from some clown, I should have just driven off, but I didn't even do that. Fucking so pissed off with myself, I didnt' say anything back, or even just drive off...... I didnt' even light it up when I took off... Soo fucking annoyed with myself...
ANyhow, that's just my rant, I thought it'd tell it to a few peers who would probably have been int he same situation..
What would you guys have done? I took the far to passive route and are now pissed off about it because he rattled my cage and he's probalby all happy about it now.....

call the police and tell them theres a man under influence of alcohol causing a hassle in the park, and he's unleashed his 2 vicious dogs out and their attacking other dogs and endangering kids and other people/pets.
Give them his discription, what he's wearing etc.
Sit back in your celica, and watch him get jumped by the PoPo 
All this would be confidential, you can even take ur simcard out of your mobile, and call 000 emergency.
Just dont run him over with ur celica. I accidentally hit a kid in my friends ST162. hmmm that didnt end up pretty. But the kid was fine, we offered to bring him to hospital, but he was heading home and his mum was a nurse or something

yeah, I was thinking of calling the cops, I might even go down there tonight at about the same time and call the cops then. I'm fucking annoyed I didn't do it at the time.
But that would have been the ideal thing to do I think. I didn't want to hit the prick. For so many reasons.

my opinion is just let it go cos he's drunk not thinking straight, buT best thing is to call cops cos he might hurt someone cos 1. he's on the road 2. unleashed dogs 3. he's with his kids? thats just irresponsible
you drink alcohol...you put it in your stomach not in your head!
being drunk is not an excuse

Sorry to say but cops aint gonna do shit becuase it actually involves them turning up to a scene and actually having to deal with someone that might be agressive to them. So they would more than most likely wait 2 hours before getting to the scene and then just take down some details and you would never hear from them again reagirding the issue. Lets face it, if there aint no money to be made or some1 in serious danger i do think that they would prioritise those situations before this. Sad but true though. If it were me and i would have just accelerated and watch him try and dodge the car when he thinks he is about to be run over, though you would just swerve around him in the process. Then you get to sit back and laugh as he curses at you in your rear vision mirror.

That I had quite honestly considered, but there was quite literally no space to go around him, because there was poles either side of the road like they have in westerfolds park you see, so I would have caused damage to the car.

Something like this happened to me a year or so ago. I now carry a led bar in my car, i was threatened last time, and I just totally wasn't prepared for it, (i had a really loud exhaust, and was looking for parking) but hey if the guy stops you like that, that's threatening you, so I'm hoping i can legally cave in the head of the next guy to do that.

Drunk people do dumb things. I would have commented on the dogs harshly too him and left it at that, but theres nothing else much to do.
Unless you want to do something like a guy I know;
He was riding his bike down a road and saw a guy full drunk standing in the middle of the road putting his arm out as if to 'clothes-line' him. So the guy I know proceeded to do a wheelstand and knock the guy over and continue on his way.

I would have stopped heard his rant rolled a bit further up the road, dialled up 4krpm dumped the clutch leaving him in both choking tire and carbon smoke cos my car would still be cold and thus churning out smoke upon revving, thus giving the drunk something to actually complain about

Thats just fucked.Trains are much better and don't mess about.
What you did was the best as the situation can't escalate and cause damage to your car etc.
Oh and best thing to put someone down with is a small CO2 extingusher.Give a shot of the co2 and they go down like a bag of shit.

I was doing about 60 in a 60 zone with this bitch in a Ford behind me when I noticed a cat a bit further up the road. I was able to brake before the cat and it ran off the road and the bitch in the Ford was pretty far behind me, at least 50m. After I slowed down for the cat she was a far enough distance from me that she wouldn't have crashed in to me so I didn't race back up to 60 because it kills my corolla and wastes petrol so I resumed accelerating a tad slow but nothing painstakingly slow. After seeing all this she tailgates my arse for about 200m to the next traffic light and even honked at me. 
I let her over take me after the lights but it became 3 lanes and she was heading towards the city and I needed to get back home.

ive had heeeeaps of people in my neighbourhood say the same type of thing to me... thing is that they arn't drunk and are basically speaking truth. The usual thing they say is "Ey, can you please drive a bit more SANELY around our neighbourhood, you know, kids around and that." They have a point, but it always make me laugh because I'm a learner that just chucks p plates up all the time and I do drive like an absolute psychopath (Within reason, and I have taken note of where not to drive like a psychopath) I try to keep to new estates these days... BEST drift areas... anyway away from the point.
Most of the people around my area say it quite politely, no threatening tone or anything so I respect them greatly and try to abide by what they say, whereas this drunk may have said it more viciously and you may not have been thrashing it really whereas you do have a reason to punch him, run him over, reverse, run him over again, then drive off ahahaha.
Sorry havent slept all night.. already morning... i seem to rant on in mornings after not sleeping... figures... LOL

in response to the original post, i would have just driven off. If u abuse him, he might throw something at ur car. even then if u get out and hit him, sure its gonna feel good, but u still have to repair the car!
think about it man, nothing happened to ur car, only ur pride is a little hurt, so dont worry! no point worrying about dicks like that

Yeah, thanks guys..
I'm fairly sure I should have lit it up on the way off, but I was concerned that he would get my rego and call the cops. I suppose they probably wouldn't have done anything, but I could do without the worry..
But I guess the general concensus is that I did the right thing. Spewing all the same though.

seems to me he shouldnt be getting drunk around little kiddies either.
It happens all the time with me i get scorned at by people when im doing the speed limit. Its an unfortunate fact that people associate noise with speed. If i had a quite car and was doing 200 in a 50 zone people wouldnt care

phrostbyte, your a tool, driving with p's on when your only on your l's is asking for4 trouble, not only are you inexperienced but should something happen you are uncovered for insurance so you will be royally screwed.
Do not drift in surburban areas there are too many hazards find a nice quiet industrial estate with wide roads and go there even roads that may have been clear hundreds og times before will throw up a surprise like a kid chasing a ball.

Just be glad he didnt attack your car or anything. Nothing like tough guy assholes who have been drinking.
I saw some lady dropping her V can onto the side of the road. That really fucked me off, I would have stopped if I was driving. You can only say so much @ 60ks  Its like some people are still cavemen

You did the right thing... Theres nothing that upsets a drunk more than calling him a dickhead or an idiot...
If you had of said...
"im not the one standing in the middle of the road you fucking dickhead"
He mighta fired up and started beating your panels like it was his wife...
I woulda done the same

going back to fooz86's comment of how he carries a lead bar in his car - what are you gonna say it's for if a cop pulls you over and finds it?
if you have it in your car and you "cave in his head" then you will be f**ked in court without a legit reason for carrying the bar - if you say it's for "self-defence" they could class the attack as pre-meditated... think about it!
as for the bum in the park - yeah, u did the right thing, but why stress about it now - there are always gonna be dickheads like that around and you can't fix em all up can you - if you wasted all your time going around and trying to get back at them you'd have no time to enjoy your car

i would have said that altho i racing ur being a great influence on ur children by being drunk and disorderly
failing that i would have told him to go suck on a big, fat, salty, cheezy, crusty penis. If he then took a offence to that remark, i then would have gotten out of the car and proceeded to share my opinion of anoying people with him in a more personal manner.
of course i would endevor to introduce him to the joys of being picked up and shoved in a public bin upside down
