Melbourne roads shenanigans: No idea what's changed between afternoon and evening today.
Drivers were quite well behaved last night and this afternoon compared to other times.
Tonight on my way to pick up my wife:
nearly got rear ended by a tradie in a ute at the red light. He was quite pissed at me for stopping behind and not next to a fuel tanker road train (two trailers) around a bend. He tail gated me until I turned off
BMW sedan did a half burnout sort of thing on Lygon St. Pretty sure they reached 60-70 in the 40kmh zone.
A large ute pretty much pushed two pedestrians while doing a right turn. He drove off, his passenger laughing his ass off.
