Taxi LG08 CKL = Dangerous C*nt

does anyone know where you can get look a like police badges
it would be so cool to dip in ones pocket and produce a waarant card from one pocket when things like this happen
could put the shits up a few arrogant wankers

it might be a tad illegal impersonating a police office but there just aren't any around when you actually need them !

Im sure you could potatochop one ;)

altho.. The penalty is imprisonment not exceeding six months or a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale (currently £5000) or both.

If you thought you were going to get punched, doesn't that constitute assault?
Book the fucker, just take him down a couple of pegs.

I've complained about him to the PCO, lets see what happens.

On Monday I saw the aftermath of what happens if a driver has a little dint with a taxi and then tries to drive off without exchanging details. Foooooooooking mental. The taxi guy chased this woman down the rode ramming into her car and eventually forcing her off the road by driving into her door before driving off going, "Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ggggggggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh Mwooooorrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh."

Taxi drivers scare me way too much to ever want to fuck with them.

I had a black cab driver squaring up to me with a tyre iron. Scary fuckers.
I wanted to move to the left lane and consequently leave the roundabout for the Rotherhithe Tunnel on the second exit (and there's a horrible traffic jam - where the bus lane finishes and all the cabs pour straight in like they're privileged vehicles), but he decided, that nobody has right to change the line in front of him. He caught up with me in Poplar and tried to push me of the road first.

Amusing incident last night, north end of Chelsea Bridge, a woman driving a new Porsche 911, decided on a last minute swerve/right hand turn & almost took out a cyclist & a mondeo behind almost drove into the back of her. The mondeo used it's horn, the woman waved a hand at the mondeo & the mondeo lit up it's under grille blue lights and turned it's siren on......

Taxi drivers are out of their comfort zone (being a shabby golf course clubhouse) most of the time. The last one who ran me off the road was apologetic, then bizarely, realised what he was doing and called me a c#nt, so I unfortunately wobbled and trying to regain my balance, back hammer fisted his wing mirror off.....v satisfying, although this seemed to upset him

Reminds me of a run in I had with a car last July. The guy overtakes me on the Lee High Road and immediately cuts me up - forcing me into the kerb - whereby my bike kicks out from under me and the front wheel is crushed by his rear wheel. I'm yelling blue murder and to be fair he pulls over in the Kwik Fit car park whereby we proceed to have a little ding-dong about his details and insurance. When I tell him a new Ksyrium SL will be the best part of £250 he gets really shifty and start to back away towards his car. Unbenown to me, another cyclist has witnessed the whole shebang and was quietly watching from the pavement. Just as the guy reached for his door the cyclist reaches in through the window and grabs the keys out the ignition! The driver then goes totally batshit at us both, blathering all sorts of filth and getting right in the other guys face shouting "If you ain't old bill get me my fackin' keys back.." etc.etc. At this point nice Mr Cyclist calmly says, "let's sort this out nicely Sir - I think you owe this chap some money..." as he pops open his wallet to flash his Police badge and warrant card identifying him as a DI in Lewisham's homicide division! The look on mateys face was almost worth getting my wheel trashed for! The copper was also riding a nice SS Genesis. Hero!

I was thinking about the hairy bit.

You can talk, Captain Ponytail :P

PCO don't do traffic complaints.

I know, which is why I complained about his conduct, not his driving.

Dude just write a complaint to Hackney Carriage and tell them what happened

or if your really pissed you can request the CCTV footage from the police and view the mentioned incident

I do the East, you do the West. I can't be everywhere.

As I said, if the car is being operated, it counts as overtaking, i.e. if someone reaches the end of a queue as you go past, or has just stopped at the kerbside. If the engine is turned off, of course it isn't overtaking.

What if the car is being pushed down the road, then the engine is off?

The obvious counter-example I didn't think of. :)

A taxi driver drove into my back wheel the other day because he didn't like me being in the right hand lane at some lights. When I turned round, assuming it had been by accident, he was tumescent with barely-suppressed rage. Poor fella will probably die of heart disease from the stress of it all. Forgive them, for they know not what they do.

Fuck that. Take his plates for later revenge and then kick his face off and piss in what's left.

Serenity now!

I had to leave Oz after nearly beating my Anger Management coach to death with a hello kitty pencil case*.

*may not be 100% accurate

still unresolved....

TFL / Police etc will send you back and forwards between each other claiming it's not their issue.

TFL will send you a cut n paste letter pointing out drivers are self employed / not their liability.

Police will be unlikely to help unless you have hard evidence that makes sure they get a success story out of it. They don't want another incident that they haven't solved on their books.

obtain address thru dvla possible then start a petty drawn out revenge campaign against his taxi? involving tynan security paste etc.
doesn't help bring him to answer for his actions but if all official channels fail it may provide a little bit of comfort.

you can talk, captain ponytail :p

jajajaja

I think you'd be safe from prosecution flashing a fake warrant card. I understand to actually get a successful prosecution for impersonating a police officer they would have to catch you letting the taxi driver go, whilst arresting yourself for having the temerity to be hit by a motor car, followed by teararseing down the road at 100mph with blues and twos to get a takeaway, before beating an innocent bystander to his death.

If anybody has the ability to make false number-plates, and perhaps access to a taxi-cab, it would be the best revenge you could take to drive it very fast through some speed cameras for a week. It would only take 12 points to lose him his licence.
