Just been followed for 45 minutes!

Hi,

I've just got back home, after being followed for 45 minutes!

I went putting some petrol in, ready for the rest of the week.

Whilst on my way home, this car comes flying up behind me flashing his lights. He was also weaving his car on both sides of the road behind me.

I just think "What a ****", and carry on driving. I noticed that everywhere I turned on my way back home, down the little streets... he was following me.

It was an old clapped out fiesta with some slap head chav driver, and 4 slappers inside.

Anyway, I carried on driving down random streets to see if he really was following me... and after 20 minutes of going round in circles he was still there!

I drove at about 25mph for about 10 minutes to get him to overtake but he stayed behind me. I then drove at 20mph in 30 zones on a few occassions, and he had PLENTY of room to drive past... but instead he stayed behind me blowing his horn and flashing his lights.

I thought to myself "I need to get rid of him". Being tale-gated is bad enough... never mind being followed. :(

I decided to head for the 'East Lancs' (Local fast carridgeway). I headed for it, and went as fast as I could go (Within the speed limits)... all the way down. He was virtually a small dot in my mirror, when I decided to turn off to head back home.

I turned off on the next turning... to get stuck at a set of lights. He then appeared behind me AGAIN! He was really starting to get on my nerves... so I thought I'd take him for a drive on my work route (A good 15 miles) ;).

I thought to myself, if I drive for long enough he will get bored. He carried on following me, but I then got to a 40 road which I knew and turned onto it. I floored it all the way down (Within the limits), and as I knew the area I went down some little side-streets.

I then had lost the little scrote. I went down a back alley... and turned my lights out so if they did happed to look around because they lost me, they wouldn't see me.

Anyway, I did lose them thanks to my work route. He must of been a local barry, and seeming as though he was 15 miles away from home when I lost him... he's probably still trying to find his way home now! :laugh:

It serves him right for following me.

I don't really see the reason why he followed me!

Hi guys,

Cheers Jim and Paynee. :) I didn't have to go back to the petrol station. I hardly broke the car into a sweat. His car was so full of chavs, that it took about 1 minute to get to 60 for him! :D

Dusk, I don't live near Bickershaw. I live around the Leigh area. The car was a dark colour, blue/black/green.

Scary ****e!

If it happened to me I'd just drive slow cause it is a micra and we drive like grannys!! The I'd drive to were I work cause the bouncers would "have a word" with them plus a loud of decent car enthusiasts hang at the car park at my work so they'll be happy to "have a word" with these sorta people!!

Hi guys,

Thanks for the kind words. :) It shouldn't really happen, as I didn't do anything wrong to him! ??? grr

I just hope I don't come across him again! I think I'll be getting a metal bar from work tommorow... and I'll keep it in the back of the car.

I was actually thinking of driving to the local police station. I was put off the idea though for some reason.

Dusk, I know where Bickershaw is now. :D I wasn't too sure if it was local... but I had heared of it. :)

If I get him following me again, I will get his reg number and report him. :D

i had some1 follow me b4 and he kept overtaking me n then going into laybys n then following me all the time or going round roundabouts n coming back behind me.. i had lads in my car so i wasnt scared, i just didnt understand why he was doing it and there was only 2 lads in his car. some people just get a 'kick' outta doing it i think.. let them watse their time and petrol.

Hi,

James, thanks mate. :) I don't know why they did it. :( I don't know if he wanted me to pull over for a chat or something????

I did drive everywhere just normally, hoping that he would get bored... but after 35 minutes I was pissed off and I wanted to go home and put my car away... so I had to get rid of him some way.

I did get rid of him on the east lancs twice though... but on both occassions, he caught me up when I was at the lights. I over took a Jag on the bypass (1-lane), and went to just over the speed limit to get rid of him. He did disappear, but when I stopped at the lights, he was the next car behind me... so he must have overtook the Jag just to get at me.

Can you imagine it though. Just me in my 1.0 K10, against a 1.0 litre clapped out Fiesta shed with 5 people inside. ??? o_O :suspect:

Scary stuff that mate!!! It can be quite daunting when this happens, but seems like you stayed calm and acted the right way about it rather than doing something silly. There are some right idiots on the road, you just gotta watch out for them and act sensibly I guess. :) Glad your ok though anyway mate. :D

is ur micra modded at all??

Ive heard a few stories around my end and even had one of my mates been attacked at a set of lights and had his car nicked off of him..
Also ive heard of people following other cars to their home street - not follwing them all the way up - but just enough to find out where they live - then later that night going back and nicking all the equipment... this is why after every cruise i go to i always drive the longer way around just to make sure they aint followin...

Wow i wouldn't have kept a level head for that long, 45mins, blimey.

All i'd suggest is if it happens again drive to your local police station, if he follows you in he's a moron.

I've always wanted to practice my evasive driving but the only car to pick on me like that was a moddified BMW 325 :(

Quite modified. :) I only do subtle mods (ie: no big stupid bodykits). It has:

  • GTi-R steering wheel,
  • NISMO Carbon fibre gear-knob,
  • NISMO Cig lighter (I don't smoke though :D)
  • 4" Stainless steel backbox (Very, very loud! The guys at work say they can hear me from about a mile away. It does kind of hurt my ears after a while. :blush: )
  • Tinted rear windows (Limo black)
  • Jap sized (Apparently illegal) o_O number plates
  • Collette- black and silver with silver facelift bumpers
  • Genuine HKS universal induction kit
  • Grill with Fogs built in
  • Super S seats
  • Super S speedo dials
  • Super S spoiler this week. :D

Erm... apart from that, it is standard. :glance:

Retepetsir, I should have my Skyline back on the road hopefully this summer. It just depends on how much time I get to spend on the car after work, as it hasn't been much recently due to it being dark. :)

wot a cock. some bus nearly crushed me and my girlfriend and was doin 60-70 on a 40, my mate was in his 1.6 novacrap as well, we both slowed right down so he couldn't overtake, i got next to him and started shoutin at him (was really p-ed off as he nearly killed us) he wouldn't even look over as me! i do really love it when im crusin with a mate in another car so if anyone does give us trouble, we give them trouble, not dangerouly (speedin, tailgatin, etc..) e.g. if on a dual carrage way both go at 40 in both lanes so they cant overtake. we've all been in crashes so we know our limits. If im bein perfectly onest we all drove like pricks when we first started drivin but after about 5 write-offs we have all learnt our lesson..............

Hi guys,

Thanks. :) Jay, that's pretty bad too. :(

Kev, I got mine from my mate at HKS UK when he used to work there. He could also get universal HKS Hiper-Mufflers for £90 at the time, of which 2 of my work collegues bought them for their Primera GT's.

You can pick them up off Ebay I suppose. There's the odd one on there occassionally, but done buy any of that fake ****e. :)

JaYy you sound like one of many typical asian rudeboi wannabe's. Thats soo 1990's, times are changing.

do you actually plan ahead that your gonna go out crusin with 2 cars so that if someone gives u grief, you give some back??
 
i was followed a few fridays back, every friday i take my dog to a park 45mins away so it can have a run around n swim n all other dog stuf they do.i borrowed my mums old car, a suzuki baleno estate so the dog can sleep in the boot on the way home, on my way back i stopped at a pelican crossin on a dual carrigeway when a ford escort, i assume nicked, with 3 chavs inside.i could hear them shoutin
race us u faggo7. i just left them to think they had won as i didnt bother racing!then they stayed at the side of me givin me abuse, the Vs throwin stuff at the car, i had about 30mins til i got home so i fort **** am gona get this all the way back.i was gettin a little scared i admit, so i started shouting my dog so it would wake up, when it sat up n barked they quickly put there foot down and went,

JayY; i know it isnt very constructive but, you sound abit of a prick...

your mum. tell me y i sound like a prick?

nik: u joka, asianrude boi wanna be my arse, i couldn't be further away from an asianrude boy wana be, and no we dont plan to give other people trouble in they give us trouble, if someone does something dangerous to a mate when there drivin, where no just gona sit there and do nothing. like i said we dont speed or tailgate. dont say sh*t like that to me. u sounded like a alright geezer but u just seem to judge people b4 u know them, e.g wen u said about me bein baised towards SR's

dont judge before u know me, either of u

ok i admit wot i wrote in the first post does sound stupid but i was shoutin at the bus cause like i said he nearly killed us, some of may just sit back and do nothing but not me.
 
you trying to make me shake in me boots??? lol not a chance fool. You are a typical asian, accept it, every other post is always about how you race other ppl in you mummy's 1.0 litre micra.

you nutter, ppl like you disgust me on the roads of Britain, fair enuf you get hassle from someone and you didnt do nuffin to provoke him, but your answer is to retaliate back in the same manner?? how old are you??? if you wanna take out revenge then for goodness sake dont do it on the road!!!! you wanna kill an innocent person??? Plus I pay my road tax and I dont wanna share the road with ppl like you!!

oh u say I "seem to judge ppl" before I know them....So tell me....who have I judged b4 on here??? Oh and you are biased towards SR's!!

and you dont seem like a very safe driver anyway, two crashes in what something like a period of a month or so. grow up man.

Also "your mum"???? who the hell says that in thier 20's?? Typical typical typical!!!

feel free to hurl more abuse back, be assured that you'll get a reply.

wot u mean every other post is bout me racin in my mums 1.0, only been drivin it for a couple of weeks?? Go on then, describe a typical asian, make u shake in your boots, mate ive only fight in my whole life, y would i try to scare u? u takin this too far, chill 4 christ sake
 
Alright end of matter.

but for some reason you also worked out that im not a "alright geezer" just cos I questioned the actions you take on the road which you gotta admit can be dangerous to you, your passengers and other road users including pedestarians, and above all a nuisance.

plus in all my almost 200 posts on the msc, by far not the greatest amount compared to you and others on here, but I've never had to post nefin like this b4 and I dont like to either. Its a waste of post and ppl's time for making em read it. Im not even a official member and dont intend to abuse the system.

Elliot soz for the hijack, way off topic.

end of.

ok mate, fair do's lets call it a day. sweet as

but i still fail to see why people say things and have nothing to back it up. e.g., me racin my old dears 1.0, yeah i have talked about it a few times but not obsesivly. Typical asian? still dont understand that part, what in my original post make me sound like a 'typical asian'? what if a white, black, or east asian man had said the same thing?

Like i said, me and my mates have all had crashes, so we now how easy it is to lose control and crash and go through claim crap, people tryin to make up story about crashes and stuff, trust me, the last thing i would do is put peoples lifes at risk. lLike i said my first posts did sound stupid, but it seems people like yourself have taken it the wrong way, we dont speed, tailgate or cut-up or any thing like that because we know how dangerous it is.
 
Jay being one myself, I could write you a 10,000 word dissertation for uni on being asian and all things typical. But this really aint the place and pointless and yeh my bad for starting that in the first place.

Be honest with you, the day I replied with that post, my dad had just a few hours earlier taken abuse from some dumb gora telling my dad all sorts. "oh you asians......." this and that etc "you always do...." this and that etc you get the idea. basically calling us typical when like you I was in the same position having to argue that im not typical bla bla etc.

So I was in the wrong frame of mind when I replied with that first post.

like you said, lets call it a day mate.
