Topic : Dangerous Driver |
|
| clashster |
Can anyone help? Today two children aged 9 and 13 were out riding their ponies a car came toward them at high speed. They politely asked the driver to slow down the drivers reaction was to drive flat out toward them at about 60 miles per hour. Luckily they had two adults walking with them one moved into the road and asked him again to slow down so he drove right at them instead. Unfortunately he was driving too fast to get the full number. This is the third incident with this man and I think after today I have to report him to the police it is a purple peugeot I think an old M reg on Brown Bank Lane. Anyone know where I can find him?? |

I would get in touch with the Neighbourhood Policing Team, you can email them via the WY police website. I had an awful incident in Ilkley a few weeks ago and passed on details of the vehicle involved, within a few hours they had emailed me back with details that they intended to go speak to the driver and then with 48 hours they had emailed back to say they had visited the owner of the car and given him the hard word. I was able to provide them with the make, model, colour, reg number of the vehicle and a description of the driver so it may not be quite as quick for them to track your driver down but I think it is worth reporting. |

if its who i think it might be (he drives the same way up robin hood), its a purple Lancia not a Peugeot. He lives in the bungalow on the end of Craven Avenue |

If this prat is the same one who has had this LHD Lancia Integrale for a good few years now I have seen this character drive dangerously too. He nearly killed himself trying to overtake four cars simultaneously approaching Robin Hood and met a Tesco delivery van coming around a corner at him. He needs stopping. |

thats the one i'm thinking of Loafer. I followed him home one night & gave him a verbal after he overtook me like an idiot coming down the hill on robin hood. Seems to think he's invincible & he couldn't understand why i was upset, in fact it was my fault for not knowing how wide my car is. Even threatened to call the police because i was harrasing him. i offered to stay while he called them... he didn't |

If it is indeed the same guy I know that worried parents at East Morton school made the police aware of him and his antics. This was informal though as the officer (traffic) was himself the parent of a pupil. |

There appears to be enough of you who believe you know who this man is, somebody go get the reg number of his car and his address and report him to the neighbourhood police, has already said they will ADVISE him! |

good point grandad. if clashter wants to report this idiot i'd be happy to back him up with my experiences of his dangerous driving |

Thanks for all your help I will go to craven drive tomorrow I will recognise the car and driver. I will email the police as suggested and tell them to have a look at this forum. If anyone else has problems with him then also report him. He needs stopping before he kills someone. |

He needs stopping. if it is he needs to drive safer lets face it italian cars from that period were rust buckets and bits fell off them for fun plus if its a delta HF Integrale its efectively an 80's rally car |

Bloody nice car as it goes, shame he think's he's an 80s rally driver but without the skills to go with it |

hat, if you followed him home and spoke to him, did you not make a note of his reg number? |

quotehat, if you followed him home and spoke to him, did you not make a note of his reg number? i didnt at the time but i could go get it pretty much any time. at the time i assumed it was a one-off. seems he's much more of a menace than i realised |
|
| clashster |
I have the number now so I will get on and report the incident |

I think what you meant to say is he doesn't have any knowledge of the highway code, or drive safely. |

Interesting first post....Anyhow, he got away with the most dangerous of the incidents which I personally have witnessed not by his own 'skill' but because the other driver was able to give him enough room to get out of trouble. |
