 Posted: 09:07 - 23 Aug 2012 Post subject: Crazy Taxi Driver: The Return of The Crazy Taxi Driver! |
 |

Link to earlier thread: https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=252684
Riding to work today, see the taxi driver who tried to kill me early last week, so I point at him and give him the wanker hand gesture, filter off feeling victorious!
However, I may of counted my chickens...
I pulled up at some traffic lights and all of a sudden he's there stood over me and punched me (well my helmet), so I try to find neutral, which is a bitch. Find it, get off and some white knight gets in the way and takes him back to his taxi.
I have his licence plate, should I call police and make a claim against him/his employers for making me fearful on my journey to work/assaulting me? ____________________ Prev- Pug speedfight 2 50cc x3 (Write off, blown engine and stolen), Honda Xr 125-L (Nail), Suzuki GSX-R 600(stolen).

I think you probably should as it might get another dangerous mini cab driver off the street. You did call him a wanker though Next time, make sure your getaway is clear  ____________________ Space Is Deep |

Wow, yes, for sure you should call the police and file an assault claim, what an absolute moron, he clearly has had one too many punches in the head himself, that would have probably hurt his hand more than you... especially if he didn't punch with the correct knuckles as most people don't. Sounds like he needs some anger management  ____________________ What would you do in life, if you knew you could not fail?

The only people who say "don't bother with the police they wont do anything" are people who don't bother with the police and let every toe rag and violent cunt get away with it
Report him, 'word against word' yeah well derp, that's how statements work, it'll be a hassle and they'll take statements from everyone including witnesses
People don't just make shit up about being assaulted and go through the hassle of the reporting it just to be a cunt
Just be hones,t give a background to what happened before, tell him you flipped him off, so what, no excuse to physically assault someone
Say the helmet is now damaged and needs replacing
He has everything to lose, his job, his taxi license, money and reputation, you well, you were just going home/to work or whatever
I reported someone for going around swearing and screaming in people's faces and trying to get into fights with indians around town and he got a section 24 (think it was 24 anyway)  ____________________ Fzr-600 1999 |

Section 27 - Direction to Leave... very useful tool.
I agree with the above, you've had two run-ins with the guy, and there is an independent witness out there somewhere who might be traceable.
I would report it to the police, hopefully you have his registration number. Report him to your local council's taxi licensing department too, you may find they can take quicker and better enforcement action without the same level of proof that the police would need to charge. |

You took his wing mirror and broke his hand, quit while you're ahead, eh?
Or maybe get off next time and actually talk to the guy before one of you (i.e. you) gets properly hurt.
Bring witnessed/backup though. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I would have thought a new helmet would be needed in that situation? Any damage to a helmet is surely a bad thing meaning it has to be replaced and you shouldn't be expected to pay for it  ____________________ Current: Kawazaki ZX6R 51

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 13 years, 300 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
