One of my few taxi rides in Sydney; double-lane closing out to single-lane roundabout. Taxi driver wouldn't be beaten by the only other car on the road. Sped so fast to be in front, he had no time to brake for the roundabout so we just hit it, got airborne, went over it, then stopped a few hundred metres ahead because of at least one puncture.

I walked away to the hissing sound of deflating tyre while he apologised to get me to stay, then got mad for walking away without payment. Fortunately the next one was really nice and stuck around at my destination to help me with reporting it so the HQ would definitely get the details.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
