Auckland Hoon's Road Code
|
||
-------------------------
|
||
|
||
|
||
1. Don't wait for anyone or anything. Drive at maximum speed in the outside
|
||
lane until your exit is 100 metres away. Plunge wildly across three or four
|
||
lanes and make obscene gestures to anyone in your way.
|
||
|
||
Don't worry about possible contact with other cars, your bullbars will
|
||
protect you.
|
||
|
||
Pass on the left when other drivers' exits are approaching. Pull alongside
|
||
slow drivers and scream obscenities through their open window.
|
||
Don't worry to look where you're driving, your mates will hold the steering
|
||
wheel for you and suggest new words you can use.
|
||
|
||
2. Ignore any moving object smaller than your car. The HQ Holden is only
|
||
worth $500 (and most other cars will just bounce off, anyway). Laugh at
|
||
anyone asking if you have third party insurance. Tell them they can't get
|
||
blood from a stone.
|
||
|
||
3. Look for gaps in the traffic ahead and fill them, no matter which lane.
|
||
Where gaps don't exist, create them.
|
||
|
||
4. The kid next door smashed all your rear vision mirrors, but don't replace
|
||
them. Just don't look back. What's gone is gone.
|
||
|
||
5. Don't worry about signalling, it keeps everyone on their toes. Anyway isn't
|
||
it dangerous to make hand signals while carrying a half empty beer bottle?
|
||
|
||
6. Drive close enough to the car in front to show them the whites of your
|
||
eyes - It's guaranteed to clear the way for you.
|
||
|
||
Sneer at the other drivers when they swerve out of your way, and watch
|
||
their reactions. Old ladies are the most fun. If they give you aggro,
|
||
repeat the seond half of Rule No 1.
|
||
|
||
7. You have the right to be on the road in any condition - tired, drunk, or
|
||
just plain stupid. Qualifying on all three counts should be your constant
|
||
aim. Don't worry, it's easy.
|
||
|
||
8. Ensure that no more than four fingers of one hand touch the steering wheel
|
||
at any time. Leave the other hand free for holding liquid refreshment,
|
||
communicating with other drivers, or both.
|
||
|
||
Drape half of your seat belt across your shoulder to fool the law. The
|
||
other half is keeping the muffler tied on. When the driver's seat frame
|
||
collapses, stuff a beer crate under it to shore it up.
|
||
|
||
9. Avoid thoughts about warrants of fitness. If they connect the car with your
|
||
name, They'll want to return it to the real owner.
|
||
|
||
Don't worry if the shock absorbers have failed, they're only there to make
|
||
the car more comfortable. If the windscreen's too dirty to see out, smash a
|
||
hole in it.
|
||
|
||
10. Ignore the speed limit. When challanged by the law, argue aggressively that
|
||
the Germans aren't stupid and they don't have speed limits--do they?
|
||
|
||
Reinforce your logic by waving a beer bottle at them. If they won't take no
|
||
for an answer, don't bother to front up in court.
|
||
|
||
Remember, they can't get blood out of a stone.
