Re: Labourer With A Death Wish.... I saved his life.
cause all you do is go on about how great you are at driving. Like i said on one of your previous (funnily enough similar) threads, my father has spent a career picking up remains and scraping guts of mostly young guys out of cars.
Cars driven by cocky, know it all, im an advanced driver, im better than you at driving, speed doesnt kill etc etc idiots.
It wasnt meant to be nasty, and im sure you have already disregarded it. Afterall advice is not a thing you take i would guess.
its actually tragic, and i hope i never read about it, but i wouldnt be surprised. If not to you then there will be another 'you' on the road who will meet there maker in this fashion.

Re: Labourer With A Death Wish.... I saved his life.
you saw people by the side of the road obviously about to cross, you failed to take into account any likelihood of them crossing in front of you. you then had to take extreme measures to avoid an accident when they did. where is the surprise? where is the rocket science in understanding that had you had a brain that was capable of allowing for an event to occur in the future you would have allowed yourself sufficient time to avoid said mad capped maneuvers by slowing down and allowing for an event beyond your control.
Its called good driving and since i and everyone else is wasting their time by trying explain this to you i will bow out here as your boring me now with your lack of understanding and immature thought processes

I certainly don't see any pedestrians waiting to cross over on any of the motorways that I use.

Re: Labourer With A Death Wish.... I saved his life.
I know it is and I even met the guy who invented it, but over here I call it the arab flick ok!
Don't give me all this BS about allowing for someone to run out in front of you on a Motorway, it's the first time it's happened to me in this country and I've been here over a year, he bolted across the road like a deer in the cotswolds ffs!
I had 20 metres and that is not much distance at all when you are coming off a motorway at speed.
At the end of the day, you might have other methods but that fact is, the guy is still alive and my car is in one piece, so I guess the way I chose in that split second worked and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

100kph = 27 meters per second.
So in less than one second you managed to do all the 'considering' you mentioned but also put in all the actions? you know that your brain and body can't combine to react to something within 1 second - let alone do all the extras you speak of.
You are so full of sh.ite

Re: Labourer With A Death Wish.... I saved his life.
The real sequence of events.
Bison was doing 100kph and slowed down at the exit.
Saw a labourer on the side of the road and thought to himself "oh...20 points".
labourer doesn't notice bison and starts to cross.
Bison reacts with brakes alone (maybe locking up but prob not).
Labourer sees car and retreats back off the road
Bison thinks that could have been close!
Bison thinks what he would have done if he had a second chance and put into action all the things he thinks he's capable of.
Bison thinks he will just tell people (that he doesn't know) that he did what he wished he did and they will all think big of him.
We don't son.

Re: Labourer With A Death Wish.... I saved his life.
then its fairly clear you havent driven on Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Khail road, Emirates road or any other number of multiple lane higways here where there are no pedestrian bridges and labourers face either a 20 mile detour or a quick game of frogger

You say I spout so much sh*t? You weren't even there so you don't know what the facts are, your just assuming I am talking shit, fair enough assume that, do you really think I am going to lose any sleep over it?
I know what happened, I wasn't breaking any laws and my quick reactions saved someones life, so I don't have anything to defend.
Your all a bunch of f**king morons having a go at me for this, anyone else on here would have got praise for their actions.
