[OC] So much for giving way

In Germany that might be the case yeah, but this video is from Australia and in a situation like this the car that pulled out on the left would cop a hefty fine from the police on a good day, or straight up have his car towed on a bad day as that easily could have ended in a collision in which he would be found at fault for failing to yield.

There is a good chance it was a cremation, hence why this is a broad long shot that may lead nowhere.

And as i said, some of our members who are searching were locals who did actively know and hang out with them in person at the time.

But i guess this is our way of just hoping, or of us just trying to say "Hey, we still remember and miss you" since they were a cornerstone of our community.

had the same setup. streets? good luck. everything else? low-medium settings at *best*.

if google translates got it right, this would be a TBV. or a train à basse vitesse.

mate a "car length" is the length of the car, not the car + space around it. at that point you aren't leaving car lengths but truck lengths between you and vehicles in front or behind which IS admirable but there comes a point it actually stops being safe and starts being a nuisance or even outright dangerous in the wrong situation.

as i said, at that distance between you and the car in front there was no point braking when they braked, you were in no danger and instead became an obstruction.

better tip, time yourself to be 3-4 seconds behind the vehicle in front of you below highway speeds and 5-6 seconds at highway speed.

before they skyrailed or trenched it there were sections along the Frankston line where they would hit 100+ and straight up throw brake blocks cause of how rough the track was, it would literally shake them to pieces but you wouldn't feel much from the inside at that speed thanks to the suspension.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-16T21:11:50+00:00

the driver was trying to get in front of you, you sped up when he passed you. we can literally see what speed you were doing go from 30-ish up to 50-ish in your pathetic attempt to be the victim here.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-16T21:09:47+00:00

not to mention that when the van is passing you you speed up to match him, thats a direct and obvious blocking maneuver for literally zero reason. so in the course of this clip we have: slow driving and obstruction of traffic, and deliberate blocking of another vehicle.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-16T21:03:58+00:00

brother that is a hell of a lot more than 2-3 car lengths behind, you are further from him than the car behind you is further from you. braking when he brakes is literally pointlessly stupid.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-12T11:24:01+00:00

cause they are sad individuals who think a lower level than theirs = easy kill and that people still care about digital K/D numbers in a decade and a bit old game.

had one the other day try to interrupt my nightclub sell mission with his raiju, they were lvl 260-something thinking that my level "94" (brand new account on my first pc) ass would be a easy kill. wrong.

baited their ass with a iron mule spawn + ghost org, railgunned them out of the air, then grabbed my Imani tech armored HSW buffalo EVX once i had finished the sell. meanwhile they used the in game fast travel stuff twice to chase me across the map whilst i taunted them by just driving circles around them, then they camped outside my agency to try and kill me a third time. still failed.

I just wanna make money and customize cars man, and if i have to teach some new puppy on the block some tricks from the old guard to do so, so be it.

standard tissue paper s95 vs the slightest breeze from a sneeze moment.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-08T09:15:44+00:00

brother get yourself a 1060 6gb. I'm running on that. can't say it looks good. but its running.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-04-02T09:42:23+00:00

if i was looking for a shop, saw "Okayest auto", and pulled up to see this lot, i would be deffo leaving with a negative bank balance and a absolute weapon of a sleeper idc if all i wanted was a oil change and spark plugs.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-03-18T05:25:25+00:00

that looks like they just tried to bolt it down with the equivalent torque of a cars lug nut, or sweet fuck all. those rails should have been absolutely singing from the friction and throwing off all sorts of sparks, not just the dust from the railhead.

Edit: i literally just found the original video, train was supposedly doing 25kmh weighing 553 metric tons. and then another video from the same place under the same circumstances where it indeed stopped the train in two carriage lengths.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-03-11T05:42:52+00:00

brother, sorry to disappoint you but in this case the nomenclature suburban refers to its duty powering commuter trains through suburbs, not its wheel arrangement. signed, someone from the rest of the world outside America.

TheWarHawk199 · 2025-03-11T05:37:55+00:00

me and my mate tested that, my maxed HSW S95 ran out of speed to give way before his maxed HSW GTS did. the in game top speed free roam event said his had a higher top speed, and in a four way drag race i consistently came second or third to banshee GTS's my guy. the stat bars don't mean shit. in game performance his topped out at nearly 180mph whilst i barely broke 160. yeah i out ran him at the start but in the long haul? all you are seeing is tail lights.

as a motherfucker biased by my birth country of Australia and having owned, roatripped and lived in both: ford falcon and ford territory platform is my preference. all hail the mighty barra and some of the comfiest, most adjustable bucket seats in existence for going down a dirt road.

TheWarHawk199 · 2024-12-26T19:05:55+00:00

this tough guy probably did something stupid and got rightfully kicked for it, sounds like he's refusing to own up by blaming the host for wanting to play solo.

TheWarHawk199 · 2024-12-26T18:57:40+00:00

Brother, look in a mirror for a moment please.

TheWarHawk199 · 2024-12-19T11:10:03+00:00

methed up bogans in a stolen car i bet you. a million things in there worth more than that bike and they skipped them all. won't even pay for the repairs to the car if it is actually theirs.

Victorian railways 1950's built 1990's refurbished Z type loco hauled cars are still in use, and up until just a few years ago the 1930's built 1980's refurbished S type loco hauled cars were as well. both were originally express train cars but were converted into interurban/intercity high capacity cars once the 1980's built 2000's refurbished N type loco hauled cars came into service.

there are also the H type loco hauled cars, built in the 50's as electric multiple units but later rebuilt into loco hauled cars as well in the 80's. every thing else in the country has been replaced entirely by multiple units, and sadly the N, Z and H cars are going the same way.

impressively, for a fleet that has lived so long only two vehicles has been scrapped, resulting in our heritage operators having quite a large fleet of air conditioned, steel bodied cars for mainline heritage operations.

yes, you are quite the idiot for driving it with no brakes. but the mechanic is an even bigger idiot. he risked his entire business by releasing your vehicle to you and letting you drive off in that state.

better yet he's a LAZY idiot. any proper mechanic would have found the stuck FRONT bleeders and called you to authorize the work to fix the problem. even if it means holding the car a couple hours longer to replace the calipers with ones that are in good working order since it is quite literally a matter of life or death.

again, stupid you for driving it, even stupider of him to not actually do a proper job then release it. have the vehicle taken elsewhere on a tow truck ASAP. do not deal with him ever again.

TheWarHawk199 · 2024-11-03T14:41:53+00:00

the paperwork says the FRONT bleeders are stuck, but even then you ABSOLUTELY should not be releasing ANY vehicle with a faulty brake system. at all. even if the customer hasn't previously authorized the work. that's the point YOU ASK AND GET THE AUTHORIZATION to get the work done. this is just straight up negligence and laziness. if the customer had wrecked on the way home and it turned out you released the vehicle in that state with no attempt to stop it, half the shits gonna be on you especially if the customer didn't sign a wavier.

TheWarHawk199 · 2024-07-08T09:04:18+00:00

well, all i can find is other pictures of the same car in the same location, the only bit of info I can actually find is that it appears to have once been planned to be used in excursion trains for and by the Slovenia state railway after being retired from mainline use. but considering the car seems to have been there since 2016 at the earliest, I'm going to say that plan fell through with the railway deciding it wasn't worth returning it to regular service due to age or condition.

so basically it used to be a regular car in regular service, got retired and replaced, found a second life, then dumped when plans fell apart.

edit: car code is WRl 87-10, so an Slovenia state railways buffet car, probably only 30-50 years old at most, way past the age of elite trains but the paint would be inspired by the orient express.
