And let me guess – the number plate is “Fireworks”?

I’ve no idea, what are you talking about ?

I think a call to plod would get him a fine for obscuring his rear vision.

Or are you suggesting that if he had for example,”HOMOPHOBE” on the window, nothing could be deduced about his attitudes towards gay people?

He was probably too scared to put HOMOLUVA on the back window, the old English font, ute, and wife-beater singlet are just a facade..

I was unable to find “Holden LAW H8R” on redbook. A little help?

It’s kind of a street machine thing, they gived them macho names like exterm8r, uncontrollable, devil machine.

A bit like heavy metal, you’re not supposed to take it literally.

I could be wrong though, he may be a law hater.

Dunno about that. It seems to me that if you drive around in a vehicle with that slogan on it, you’ve gotta be saying *something* about yourself. Or are you suggesting that if he had for example,”HOMOPHOBE” on the window, nothing could be deduced about his attitudes towards gay people?

I thought it said “LAID HER”! Might be time to get my eyes checked…

Curious that you followed him down the GDE, zigzagged wherever, eventually passed him turning right at Kambah, but managed to snap him driving north on Botany St waiting to turn right onto Hindmarsh Drive. Did you guys take a detour or was he trying to shake you because he thought you might have been tailing him.
One other little point – was that a phone camera you used, because the law clearly states that a driver of a vehicle shall not use of any sort of mobile phone device while in control of a vehicle…

It does not take a genius to look at that image and realise it was taken from the passenger side of the vehicle behind, as visible in the reflected image in the back of the red car.

I suppose “I AM A F#CKING MORON” has too many letters to fit his screen.

Commodore is the wrong colour.

I believe it actually says “Wanker”.

I think all you internet softc*cks better back off, because this is obviously one hardcore badass dude. I mean, like, this dude is a DUDE. He’s a mean mother, don’t doubt it. The kinda guy who has no friends, and owes no favours. He’s a whiplash waiting to crack. Diss him, and you’ll regret it. When push comes to shove, this big hunk of burnin’ love will be doing the pushing, *and* the shoving. Screw around with him, and at the end of the day, it will be the end or your day, know what I’m sayin’?. I’m talking lights out for those who don’t show RESPECT. And that’s what it’s all about. Because a Big Bad Boulder of a man is in that vehicle, and RESPECT is all he deserves, and if he doesn’t get what he deserves then trust me baby, a very f*cking’ hard rain is gonna fall, and it’ll fall on those who don’t respect the commodore with the old English writing on the back.

Yo.

Masturb8r.

Reminds me of those “tough guys” who get large Old English characters tattooed across their shoulders and back which are almost illegible. What’s the point?

Such

Life

just ask Ben Cousins.

There’s something remarkably un-badass about using Old English engravers for a font. In any case, this toll will no doubt believe this until someone keys his car of jacks his stereo… then he wants the law’s help no doubt.

this is another rear window sticker from a few years back spotted in Kambah – http://flic.kr/p/5SNHJ8 – “In ya undies” charming !

Places he won’t be getting near?

Also in before LAW H8R googles himself over the weekend and goes on a huge rant. (Actually true to form that will probably happen in about 2 months time.)

I thought it said GAW H8R

which puzzled me a bit because that can mean 1 of 3 things

– Grown A*s Women
– Good Ass Whooping

or my personal favourite acording to the urban dictionary

“to smear bloody poo on one’s face.”

That last one is quite funny, however I imagine if that is to be the meaning of GAW H8R, then our above LAW H8R is certainly not a GAW H8R! (perhaps maybe a Gaw Abassador?)

I am not Martin who sent the picture to JB, I just also happened to have noticed the car, saw the thread and shared my experience.

Apologies! My mind ran amok with all the different scenarios that could have resulted from a drive down GDE to Kambah via Phillip and it sounded like a really cool road trip, and I was hoping against hope that this could turn into a great story to tell the grandkids one day….never mind about the camera quip – I’m just addicted to Loiuse Maher’s drive time programme and often listen in to the policeman talkback on Thursday afternoons when they discuss all sorts of cool ways to break the law!

All he is missing is a Southern Cross sticker. Actually, he probably has that tattooed on his back already

if someone slashed his tyres, would he still be a “law h8r”?

Yes he would still hate the law because the law would do absolutely nothing about it.

you kept up with them for 10mins, couldn’t have been that erratic

I wouldn’t be so sure, most people who drive like maniacs aren’t cognisant of the fact that they’re probably not getting to their destination any faster than they would if they just drove intelligently at (or near) the speed limit.

spot on grandpa

All that’s missing is a Rush Hour sticker. At least JB will have a this photo on file for when this car winds up wrapped around a tree.

I reckon I saw one of these stickers on a Hilux-like ute on my drive to work in Fyshwick the other day.

Seems there could be a mully of LAW H8Rs on the streets?

Hit him with one of these.

I’m sure he’s probably referring to the outrageous High Court decision in ICM Agriculture v Commonwealth, which ruled that reducing a licensee’s groundwater entitlement under an aquifer access licence didn’t abridge the licensee’s rights to reasonable use of the waters of rivers. Man, f*ck the High Court and their fallacious reasoning.

maybe he just hates john laws?

Took me about 10 minutes of driving behind that car to work out what it actually said.

Guy was driving erratically to say the least – absolutely flogging it, then appeared to get a phone call and started driving about 20kmh through the GDE roadworks, then obviously finished the phone call as he sped up and started weaving in and out of traffic again.

you kept up with them for 10mins, couldn’t have been that erratic

Knew someone was going to mention this.

It was before and through the southbound GDE road works – he came from way back zig-zagging through traffic to get one car ahead of me as we got to the road works, drove above 60 through them, but then as mentioned slowed down significantly when he got a fairly long phone call and I overtook him just past the end of GDE road works. He then came zooming back through traffic to overtake me again. As another poster alluded to above, he didnt end up getting very far ahead as I later passed him waiting to turn right into (surprise, surprise) Kambah.

(FTR I did not actually time it as I was driving, however 10 minutes seems like a fair estimate.)

Reprobate said :

That’s not proper. That VT/VX ute should have a Chevy badge on it too…

I always chuckle at the guy in my street who has a Commodore with a Chevy badge on the front grille and a Southern Cross sticker on the back window.

hahaha, you should’ve shown the P plate too. at least it would’ve explained it a bit more

and if they don’t have a P plate – foooorrr shammeeeeeeee

douches! they always seem so suprised when the coppers give them a hard time too.

Bet he wears come-f**k-me-over boots too.

+1

The number 8 does not transfer well to Old English font, as do the other characters. I think he’d have trouble seeing out the back window in his rear vision mirror as well.

Reminds me of those “tough guys” who get large Old English characters tattooed across their shoulders and back which are almost illegible. What’s the point?

Obviously someone thinks it’s ok to touch young children on their genitalia.

Lynching time.

Hates the law so much he stops at a red light…
