    Whilst driving home last week i was tailgated by a crappy old astra convertable with a different colour wing etc ,

    he was giving it the flashing of lights and weaving all over the road to try and get past me(30mph limit btw) and when he got past he gave me the finger etc.

    anyway he pulled onto the same estate as me but i left it as id been at work all day and was pretty tired.

    last nite whilst walking the mutt i came across his car parked up and noticed his tax has expired(jan 09) and the car has got pretty bold tires too.

    now im not normally someone to grassing people up and all(what goes around comes around) put ive got the urge to dob this fellow in as he was behaving like a right tool.!!

    what do you think??

    not being a tell-tale is a rule for school. messing with potentially dangerous, thieving arrogant turds is a rule for life.

    Without a dough…

    no tax = no insurance

    and the way he drives he WILL hit someone.

    Stop being such a fanny. You could ‘tell his mum’ – or you could go round and punch his lights out whilst reciting the appropriate sections of the highway code. 😉

    I couldn’t have put it better myself. I’d shop him without a thought.

    Without a shadow of a doubt – get his heap emoved. And dont forget to inform the police that he was driving like a loon.

    It might stop those tyres being so bold too!

    STW surprisingly united this morning…..

    I’d shop him, for all the reasons above

    Is this 100% agreement from the STW massive? I think so….

    The point is well made by Leku. My friend recently got totalled by some chav in an escort, who then drove off. He got the reg but it turns out he has no insurance etc etc which means my friend lost a lot of money and his no-claims.

    I believe that there is an anonymous DVLA website where you can do your duty…

    I would not hestitate…

    Don’t grass him up.

    (actually do, I just thought I’d argue for the sake of it)

    Yes you can do it online – just click grass him

    I’d prefer to speak to the police rather than use that site to make sure he was properly grassed reported.

    Why sould we all pay tax and insurance and be within the law and some people think they are special. I would do. If he hasn’t got any insurance (well it would be invalid without a valid road tax anyway I would think) then if he hits anyone then that person will not get any form of compensation at all!

    Get it reported and stop being daft.

    No tax, no insurance, badly maintained, poor driving. What do you want him to do, run over my kids on the way to school before you report him?

    In fact put the reg here and we’ll all grass him 😀

    Do it. As others have said, no tax, no insurance, no MOT – probably a dangerous car. If he doesn’t give a sh1t about this, it will be the thin end of the wedge and taking his car off the road for him probably won’t stop him driving sans tax/ins/mot in the future but you can only control what you can control so on this occasion get him off the road.

    what are the chances that he’s watching this thread and getting a squad ready to come round and kick your chips in?

    If they come round your house then report it on STW and a gang of bomber wielding beardy weirdos will singlespeed round to his house and own him.

    Perhaps Brant can build a specfic bike for the task?

    Yep, as most have said. dob the fecker in. It’s a blunt tool, but every bugger has to pay his car tax – usually, if there isn’t any, it’s because it hasn’t got an MOT or insurance as you need to produce both to get the disc.

    That’s why the coppers are keen to catch people without tax – it’s not to help the coffers of HMRC – it’s because car tax dodgers also tend to be up to no good in general.

    he’s probably reading this right now whilst piggy-backing off someone elses unsecured router connection on a stolen laptop.

    he’s also on ebay for some cheap bombers….

    Grass him!

    Hopefully the car will get crushed.
