Redback Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) hi everyone.... this is my rant... Last night after 9 ish i was coming home from picking the miss's up from work when we notice a car moving wierdly over the road up ahead heading towards the West Gate Bridge outbound.... as we got closer to the bridge we passed her from a far away as possible and she was swaying back and forward bairly holding her head up.... at first we though it was funny... stairing at her then our guts started to come up as the bridge got crouded......... cars were moving out of her way everwhere trying to avoid.. truck slaming on there breaks ect.. luckly no accidents..... strait after the bridge we would normally turn off at williamstown rd but decided to follow for a short distance and ring the police while we followed... accationally flashin hazzards... not that we needed to she was making it obvious she had no idea where she was...... my girlfriend was talking on the phone giving the details with regualr update on which road we were passing... we followed onto western ring road and continued to follow... pass the ballarat sunshine turn off all the way through still on the phone to police as they continued to ask for progress down the HWY.... she pulled over in the emergency lane and a ute that i had thought had been doing the same as we did pulled infront... so we stoped to see what was happening... he grabbed her and dragger her out of the car giving her a shake up.... telling her to follow closer were nearly home... this guy was full on covered in tats... ferrol as... she was a scraggy bush rat looking thing.... and she was staggering around barily missing passing trucks....:eek: anyway... they pulled away... mean time were still on the phone to police telling them whats happening... they asked us to keep following so it makes her easier to identify.... we had gone pass calder HWY turn off... remember we stated back before the westgate.... onto western ring and havent turn off..... the cop finally ask's for our details and phone number and rings us back.... he rings back and tell my fiance that his just waiting for officer the radio back and let him know his on his way...... he hangs up.. we keep following as instructed and get all the way out to woop woop (remember we only just moved to vic) at this turn off T section he rings back asking were we are... and that they get these phone calls all the time daily we just cant get officers out to the Hwy to pull them over..... and thanked us for giving the details of the car.... i fired up... we had driven for ever as instructed for that f**king answer.... i yelled out to him.... "IF IT WAS A f**kING HOON THAT HAD MADE IT THIS FAR YOU"D HAVE THE ARMY ON BOARD YOU f**kING TOSSER".... my misses back handed me and apollogised to him and hung up...... i know i shouldnt of said that but when you way up and quarter of tank to get there and back.... i was furious...... Sorry about any typo's.... still fired up.... /Rant over Edited June 26, 2008 by Redback Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225582-drunk-on-western-ring-rd/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redback Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) lol. i wasnt trying to be the cop. i seriouly though someone was going to die... even when she came up to the T section at the end she was stoppenon a huge angle facing her car not far of 90 degrees to trafic direction towards the right... but at least she had the proper indicator on and turned left.....

GTR_STEALTH Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 i yelled out to him.... "IF IT WAS A f**kING HOON THAT HAD MADE IT THIS FAR YOU"D HAVE THE ARMY ON BOARD YOU f**kING TOSSER".... I was thinking the exact same thing as i was reading ur post! LoL ...in all seriousness though, from the West Gate, down the freeway, onto Western Hwy, and down Western Hwy is a fair distance to travel which would've taken a fair bit of time; so i'd like to know the reason for the lack of response. Imagine if the car had gone over the median strip and into on-coming traffic. ...or slammed into any one of the trees beside the Western Hwy? Its a shame to think that the emergency services would've arrived quick only AFTER an accident occurs Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225582-drunk-on-western-ring-rd/#findComment-3973187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redback Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 exactly.... it was a huge distance..... we where in the middle of no were in the end and didnt get home till 11:10... all to be a good citizen...... they definatly know how to win me over.....

shanusr33 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 that sucks! i know how you feel too, a few years ago a guy side swipped my friend driving and took off, so in the passenger seat i called the police and asked for back up LOL as we chased them and stayed on the phone and all the officer could say is no patrols were in the area so we hooned it till the car gave up and they got away you'd think the distance you travelled a cop somewhere would be able to respond. too bad for your efforts, good work though!

llama_au Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I've just given up on reporting people. The last time I went down to the police station with a number plate as I was following a drunk/drugged driver swerving all over the road and hitting guard rails they didn't bother to send anyone out. If it's not a hoon in an import, they don't care if there's someone out there endangering lives.

Betz Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 cupple of things. 1. its pretty un australian to dob people in, sure I know drunk people on the road is pretty much unnaceptable but reporting the plates and keeping out of it is realistically as far as I would go.. if that. I mean think of it this way, your going up a side street and an aged pensioner gets an earfull of your blow off valve, your not hooning, but they report you and you get pinched.. shitty way to enforce the law imo but its getting like that more and more, do you realy want to contribute to us turning into that kind of society? 2. vic coppers only want to fine you or find somthing to arrest you for, and there is sweet fa presence unless they are pinching you for some minor offence all in the name of the road toll. meanwhile ice junkies do what the want when they want without much of a worry about getting nailed by the jacks. Vic police are a joke Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225582-drunk-on-western-ring-rd/#findComment-3974302 Share on other sites More sharing options...
some_cs_student Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Instead of calling the police you should have called dob-in-a-hoon and reported a dangerous street race....they would be there quick Nice work trying to do the right thing, too bad the police didn't respond appropriately.

ITZTRU Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 As bad as it sounds...i probably wouldn't have bothered either...the whole time i was reading, i was thinkin "i bet his efforts were for nothing..." I would have just reported the plates also and left it at that...at least u know u didn't completly ignore the situation and gone home feeling entirely guilty.
