You know what a smart person would do? Drive off. They follow you? Make to your local police station. If you can't defend yourself with your fists, then you can't defend yourself. It's that simple. Having a knife isn't going to stop anyone doing sh!t to you or your car. The only way to avoid it, is to GTFO. Are you willing to stab someone and possibly take their life? Then you shouldn't carry a weapon. Do not carry around something you aren't willing to use. So basically, if you aren't willing to use it, and are carrying it around to keep you 'safe' (note: most people who carry around a weapon and yank it out of their car in a road rage incident - whether it be a bat, a knife or a crowbar - are willing to use it. Flashing a knife that you're too afraid to use will only further aggravate the situation) then you're a terry tough bitch. If you ARE willing to use it, in a situation that 99.9% of the times can be avoided by keeping calm and being the bigger person, or by driving off when sh!t hits the fan, then you're a dumb arse and I hope (sincerely) that you are never in a situation where you have to actually follow through with your actions. Most of the stuff you post on boost is decent sh!t, you're a good egg, but carrying a weapon around in your car is never ok (as you said) /end rant Can you defend yourself with your fists against someone with a weapon, or multiple aggressors? Would you not do whats required to protect your partner or family should there be no way out? What happens if you try to drive away, and end up trapped in a one way street or traffic and they followed you? I suppose you're a Krav Maga master now? You know you can attack someone with a knife with no intention of killing them, there's alot more movements than just stabbing, such as slashing and nick cuts designed to maim, but you wouldn't know the different between say targetting the shoulder as opposed to the wrist or other arterial bottlenecks. And as for blunt weapons, a slap to the knees is the easiest, least lethal way to go. Leave the head and arteies alone, no intention to kill, easy. Seriously man, how can you not understand the meaning of 'last resort'? You're post is so full of sh!t, you reckon you've got every situation down pat as if everyone is predictable like a script. Its rules of engagement, escalation etc. If some dick is coming at you and you flash a weapon and they think twice and go home, then all good. If they keep coming or there's more of them like hyenas, then its fight or flight. Some people dont listen to negotiating, some people thrive off other's suffering. As said, if you're trapped with nowhere to run and no authorities in proximity, then defend yourself to the required degree, its so simple. |

If you seriously go around believing that what you have just described is a possibility, then you should just wrap yourself in cotton wool. Multiple aggressors? Please, tell me how your 6" blade is going to defend you from a group of people. Unless you're a drug dealer or a bikie or anything else ot that extent, you're not going to end up being chased. My post is full of sh!t? Wow. I'm not the one living in a hollywood blockbuster. |

You havent got the slightest idea how society is these days do you? You cant even separate intent from last resort, absolutely pathetic. And you've described yourself, not me, I stand my ground because I'm not a coward, however I'm not an instigator or trouble maker. Compared to you though, removing your spine and growing a tail to put it between your legs. You would've been the shittest cop ever. And now come up with more bullshit how politics and negotiating can save everyone lol what a joke. |

Yes, I can totally see how that video (from the USA) relates to a possible road rage scenario. Maybe post another of an armed bank robbery too? I have never backed away from a physical fight, however I am not ashamed to say that I have driven away from a nutcase on a few occasions. Coming home to my family is and always will be more important than trying to teach some moron a lesson. |

I have never backed away from a physical fight, however I am not ashamed to say that I have driven away from a nutcase on a few occasions. Coming home to my family is and always will be more important than trying to teach some moron a lesson. The video was a respone to you saying oh please to multiple aggressors, he took them on, I dont see 1 guy with a bat against 7 an advantage at all but he did it, and good on him. I'm not talking about teaching someone a lesson, talking about defending yourself, your family, and whats yours should there be no way out. Your family might be with you in this moment. I've run too when outnumbered or odds heavily against me/ disadvantages. But when my family, friends, and partner are involved, there's reason for it. Its almost primal. Hence the bolded, you didnt reply to them, what would you do if there was no way out and you had your family with you? Can you defend yourself with your fists against someone with a weapon, or multiple aggressors? Would you not do whats required to protect your partner or family should there be no way out? What happens if you try to drive away, and end up trapped in a one way street or traffic and they followed you? I suppose you're a Krav Maga master now?

As said, if you're trapped with nowhere to run and no authorities in proximity, then defend yourself to the required degree, its so simple. Twat is right. As much as it kills me to say it. Anyone who has done martial arts knows how to remove a knife off someone who is just using it s self defense. All of a sudden that knife that was meant to defend you is now being used against you by someone with a lot more skill than yourself. Nek minit - cardiac arrest. They're examples though, not specific scenarios. Most people who are trained, know their limits of control. If they were to disarm you or vice versa, that'd more than likely be the wake up call of 'oh sh!t, now I know who I'm funking with'. And most know that martial arts is considered a weapon and can bring disrepute upon their school. But its just examples. |

Anyway instead of going completely offtopic, my raw point was that there's infinite variables that you simply cant anticipate, and in my opinion it doesnt hurt to have something to assist you in a potential altercation should something ever arise, as long as its a last resort to negotiating or evading, and not a firestarter belonging to a road rage-aholic. Better to have something you dont need, as opposed to not having something you do need. |

^^^ Man that shits me. If I was the Kia driver I would have parked even closer so the other guy would have to climb through the passenger side. |

Lady the other day coming down anzac avenue back into Redcliffe the traffic usually moves pretty fast (80 km/h zone) then stops suddenly because of the traffic lights, anyway a lady driving a nissan patrol is just texting away on her phone then to my shock she turns around to start talking to her young kids in the back seat before turning back to her phone and repeating this for some time. I am highly surprised she didn't rear end someone as she would have barely been watching traffic. |

50-GAR or GAR-50 license plate. Last week I finished night shift heading back towards the Gold Coast, Was in the far right lane overtaking someone and I almost got to the front of the cars when this car with GAR-50 50-GAR doesn't indicate or anything and swerves in front of me missing my car by about 1 metre. I had to swerve right very close to the barrier and let the stupid b!tch pass, I then catched up to her and looked and put my arms up like WTF was that? She then put up her pinky and did that wave. To this day I want to find that car. /End rant. |

Lol Soooo true.. QUOTE Couldnt beleive a young female on the Princess highway driving on cruise control sitting on the seat with her legs crossed while smoking a cigarette. It just defies all logic and common sense, I guess they are called gen Y because the rest of us are wondering "WHY"? I would of keyed the fcuk out of the black Audi. I live on a main road and to access my drive way is on the downhill of a 2 lane road, I live about 3/4 down the block, so when I pass the top end of the block I indicate and start to slow down gradually applying more brake as I approach my driveway, It amazes me at how many people don't back off once I indicate and start to slow down, I get to my driveway and almost need to completly stop ( I definatly would if I wan't in a lidted 4wd) to make the turn without hitting my brick fence, and nearly clean me up while entering my drive way. |

i wasnt 'keeping middle' - 3 lanes, i was in the far right over taking lane doing approx. 105km/h when astra tailgates for a second before 'hitting boost' on the left, swings back into our lane with us still in it and slams us into the central concrete barrier (his driver rear quarter panel and wheel hits my passenger side front wheel and guard causing me to lose control. no way he didn't notice smashing us since the impact totally caved in my front guard leaving his white paint and tyre tread embeded where he made contact... the fact he momentarily lost control then kept driving fleeing the scene of a crime is sure sign he has something to hide. While I do not condone his actions, the simple rule of "KEEP LEFT UNLESS OVERTAKING" would of had both of you travelling home safely that night. I see it day in, day out, yet they focus on speeding etc, only Austalians can cluster up a 4 lane road like the M1 etc. |
