Good on them, should be more shaming of these inconsiderate drivers.

I acknowledge hardworking Australians no matter who they are or where they come from. All those who have contributed to this wonderful country deserve an equal share of gratitude for their contributions. To single any group of individuals out for special homage only denigrates the rest of us.

That's a blinking amazing way to make the point.  However they managed to get that cover to stick so well beats me!
I thought the guy in the helmet was a Cop.  Any Cop would have booked him solid for driving with such little vision- he almost took out the white car when he pulled out blind.  Then he sped off above the area speed which would have been 40 or 50 kph. 
The illegal parker didn't like the shaming much at all!  Very stroppy about all the onlookers.  Couldn't get out of there fast enough, taking risks.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I LOVED the shaming.

That was the point I believe.

I think Biggles meant the victim, not himself?

Speaking of 'points' - - - - -

A few years ago, while I was on crutches for nearly three years straight, due to on going leg operations, I found it to be very satisfying to stick a razor sharp, strong, double edged combat knife through the cage's tyre (or tyres) sidewall - when no-one is paying attention and couldn't be 'seen' by any local cctv cameras.   :nahnah   ( :law  NOT that I'd do such a thing officer.  o:) )

Got bloody sick and tired of inconsiderate perfectly able bodied drivers, without parking permits, parking in 'Disabled' parking bays, refusing to move - even threatening me if I asked them (politely) to move.  :OldMan

I saw this vid last night on Facebook and laughed til it hurt.. I think it was a great 'SHAMING',.. YeSTerday I was at Liverpool hosp and as a permit holder was looking for a Disabled spot, when I saw a 'Towelhead' without a permit  parking her Mercedes 4wd in a Disabled spot. I found a normal metered spot two spots from her car. as she walked past me I asked her if she had a permit and 'the Towellhead,I presume was a woman, told me to get #$%**()*&R$&%%^*() calling me allsorts of profanitities, which was overheard by everyone in earshot. One of the people who heard was a  :law  police woman and she STopped said Towellhead to ask what was up.IT sex unknown  obviously told Miss :cop that I was abusive and attacking her for her race. Miss  :cop then approached me and asked my side. So I told her I simply asked if she had a DISABLED PERMIT and IT STarted the yelling profanities which you heard. Miss  :cop then spoke on her phone and then said she will have a surprise when she returns, and said I maybe should move my car away to avoid repercussion to my car, I moved me car to a different area on the other side of the hosp.
I would love to see her reaction when she discovered the hefty fine and loss of points,,, it made my day....
I would love to do whats in the vid, though and have a large audience to view the reaction...  :rofl
Dealing with my health I have become intolerant  :H with FOOLS like her or IT...
Guys chastise me if you think I was harsh but I'm over idiots and am more happy to voice my opinion not that she will learn any lesson from her actions...

Johnny. You have ever right to be intolerant of fools. I am, and the only excuse I have is I am just intolerant of fools.  :well
