GazW Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Just riding behind some van, and this pr1ck of a passenger decided to empty the entire contents of one of those stedhead milkshake protein shaker things out the passenger side window. Dropped right back as soon as he started but still got a faceful. I wasn't too close to him in the first place but the bloody wind carried it. Good job it wasn't hot coffee or something. It was a blank van otherwise I would have rung the company on the side and gone crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefly76 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I use one of those shakers for protien drinks and I'm certainly no "stedhead".. Besides, if he was in the passenger seat he may not have known you were there since the mirror would be at the wrong angle for him to see out of.

Susieque Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Even as a passenger I'd always look before putting anything out of the window! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethNW Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 So whats okay to throw out ur window?Not somthing id do at all tbh.I can imagine emptying ur coffe isnt a bad thing if it doesnt hit anyone but not my way.I like what Roy told me "I pick it up, next set of lights I knock on the window then when they lower it I say "you dropped somthing" and throw it in before riding off" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Done this with an apple core and quite a few cans but, don't think trying to pick up liquid is viable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazW Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Probably should have been clearer, he didn't take the lid off and throw it out in one go, he used the stupid lid thing still on the bottle and must have been trailing it for a couple of hundred yards. A blast on my horn to 'alert him to my presence' had no effect. My bike was pretty much clean before and I took a picture of it covered in crap from this milkshake thing but it won't let me upload it on the site or tapatalk anymore..

GazW Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 I'm guessing he knew you was there.. I'm thinking this may be a possibility. I memorised the reg anyway, if I see the van parked up it could be the old dog turd on a stick wiped under the passenger side door handle trick..

nman1 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Fag ends have to be one of my pains. I`ve had them seem to explode into what looks like sparklers. Luckily I do ride at a distance not to be hit by them but I still give a blast on the horn to let them know what a twat they`ve been.What flavour was the milkshake, my favorite is chocolate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazW Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 Haha it was chocolate, like I said I wasn't too close, it was those freakish winds we had yesterday that carried it. Pretty sure I wouldn't have got hit if it was the day before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Seems likely the van passenger intended to dump that liquid on you. No other explantion I can think of to pour it out the window while the van is moving. On second thought, maybe he was incontinent and needed an empty container to avoid messing his pants. That's not a good excuse for dousing you, though.I'm going with the theory that he did it deliberately, with malicious intent. Round up your mates, hunt him down and administer an enthusiastic behaviour modification lesson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin the Bear Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Sat at the lights a fag end came whizzing out of a van window in the next lane. Straight into my mates half zipped patrol jacket. Should have sen him jump about. I nearly dropped it laughing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattycoops43 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 What's wrong with an apple core? If I am driving the works van, I wait till I am in the country and throw it into a hedge, totally biodegradable, and feeds all the bugs and birds? Always goes out the passenger window when there's no one behind me and it will definitely not end up on the road or path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klingelton Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I was driving up the m18 once, i'd borrowed the mother in laws s3, so i was pretty much shitting it anyway (didn't want to total that thing!). A van overtook me and out of the passenger window came a drink, along with the container and landed on the windscreen.The van then decided that he would swerve around alot and drive in front of me and slam his brakes on etc. I have no idea why he was doing this - it was a pretty much abandonned motorway.anyway - a 2litre diesel transit isn't much of a match for a 2.0 turbo charged s3. I gave it some beans and blasted past him. Still don't know what that was all about though - i don't think i'd done anything to provoke him.

Many years ago i was dring a triumph spitfire and some bloke in a VW Golf GTI flicked a cigarettet at me landed on the parcel shelf burning the carpet, when we protested the guy just gave us a load of abuse. So at the next set junction my mate with out my knowledge grabbed the fire extinguisher I kept in the foot well walked up to the guys car, I was thinking oh shit whats he going to do? he then gave the guy in the golf a light (Very heavy) dusting he legged it back and we took off....I agree not very sensible, but i'm sure he wouldn't do it again.

mattycoops43 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Awesome! I really hate people chucking fag butts at me on the road, even when in a car! Fag butts don't degrade very quick, and when people just chuck them it just makes me think they obviously just don't give a crap. Lady turned her car round in at the top of our close and her kid chucked a crisp bag out the back window. I was coming up in my car so blocked the road, and went picked it up and gave it back to her.'I think your son dropped this love'. 'Oh thanks', she says.Maybe I intimidated her, or made her feel bad. I hope so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttled Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Throwing anything out of a vehicle window would be considered as either reckless conduct or an offence under the 'litter act' Section 87 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 under Scots Law.

You would never be able to give a littering ticket for an apple core or a like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just having a mild allergic reaction to the bee that had landed in his drink and stung him on the tongue as he sipped making him drop his fag in his lap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klingelton Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 In which case - I sincerely hope that when he'd last filled his car up, he'd accidentally soaked his groin in petrol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
