Default Commodore Throwing rocks?

My mum just told me to be careful when i went out earlier... apparently there is a white commodore driving around the roads... coming from the opposite direction he throws a stone about the size of half a brick out the window at you... about 9 cars so far i think, 1 in hospital seriously injured, brain surgery to remove glass... there was a write up in yesterdays paper i think... has anyone else in SA heard about this? absolutely wrong.

The last thing thrown at my car was a cruiser bottle (one of those big ones), and luckily it did no damage. Still didnt stop me from getting out of the car, calmly walking up to the moron who did it (****ed off his head), and knocking him to the ground.

Sounds like someone outta throw something at him when he's coming along.

I can just see that.. Oops, wrong car & you go down as the brick thrower complete with attempted murder charges that they're up for.

This is completely stupid and it all seems to be happening South of Adelaide so anyone driving around Happy Valley, Flagstaff Hill, Marion, Brighton etc be very cautious of on coming cars.

As most of the time (but not all), the projectile has been hauled from an oncoming vehicle, even travelling at 50kph, that's a 100kph brick sized impact through the window.
Completely stupid and it will come to an end soon enough. I just hope there are no other injuries.

this is nothing new. My father in law works as a mechanical manager for a major bus company in SA, happens atleast 10 times a week to bus drivers, from overpasses on the obahn and from speeding cars. They are continually fixing the front windows on them after rocks/bricks/bottles hit them.

well if it happened to me id try and crash into him so he gets caught. if not id chase after him and ring the cops and hopefully i could beat the **** out of him and **** up his car before the cops got there.
people like that need to be strung up in the main street of town for a day and the general public or at least his victims set loose on him.
bet that would make a few people think twice before they were dickheads.

Too bad we dont live in an arab country... a death by stoning would be fitting for this low life moron (then we'll see how he likes it, lol).

This is how one of my lecturers at Uni was killed.

Kids throwing rocks off an overpass, it went straight through the windscreen, hit him in the chest and crushed his lungs and heart. :(

Its just plain stupid. Its the same as going around shooting people and should be treated as seriously. What a lowlife.

I pray the next brick he throws ricochets off the car he throws it at and cops him square in the head.

I spend alot of time on the road in SA, and yes, 99% of them are out to run you over just so they can get infront of you at the lights where the commodore "belongs" in their mind. Its like driving with 45,000 mark skaife clones.

We had a serious problem similar to that in Perth either last year or the year before. The only difference was, the guy was hurling bricks at pedestrians as he flew past them @ around 50-60km/hr I remember seeing one lady who was hit in the head by a 1/2 brick... on the news
such bloody idiots!!!

What a ****er.
that's completely f*cked up. Hopefully he doesn't do it again but if he does whoever cops it should smash into the driver side of his car. Now that's a BIG rock.

********.
