For the nth time, the perpetrators drove off. There is no upside to me calling the police at this time. I don't want this on my driving record or apart of the info declared when I get insurance quotes. If it were not for my employer I would not know these guys. These guys used company property to harass me over stated incidents and used company time to plot their actions. This is a company issue. I have forwarded the matter to HR and to the fire chief. On monday I will be driving my 4500 lb all wheel drive car. These jerkoffs can go ahead and try something, my car will eat them for lunch. On monday I will be getting out of my car on company property upon which time we will see how this matter is resolved. The company is required by law to do something if they won't this becomes a MOL issue to redress.

So now you are a tough guy cause u will be driving 4500 lb car. What makes you think they will not trap you again, damage company car by backing up in your truck and report it as your fault? If you can't escape on your bike and can't handle it on your bike - what makes you think you will have more luck in the truck?
And you are seriously brain washed if you think HR has more power then police. Say they will fire their ***** - what will stop them from coming back at ya? And this time it may not end as pretty as broken fender.
 
Question for the OP: reporting a non at fault accident will not affect your insurance. Why are you worried about this? If you have something to hide that we are unaware of at least be honest so your decisions are justified.
 
My sense of right and wrong tells me that you should report it to police, immediately.

My sense of danger tells me that you should print this thread out so that the contents are dated, toss it in an envelope, and mail it to yourself so that the sealed envelope has a dated postmark, then leave it sealed. Buy a couple of cameras, as another poster suggested, and run with them on religiously.
 
I clearly stated the situation.

I will let the company resolve this. If required I will file a police report outlining the events. However, as the consensus is don't expect much from the HR and I concur. Given the events I have been pushed into pending actions. Unfortunately, I lack the right connections to resolve this matter properely. Running to the police will accomplish what?

Perhaps my future is,

Society can decide to lift me up or send me to depths, we will see. :agave:

Good call dude, I know you dont want the headache, but if you let them file a complaint first you could end up being bit for something you didnt even start. I saw some other posters saying keep an eye on ur bike at work in case it "mysteriously tips over" and I agree 100%, its the only thing they have to hurt you with. Always keep your skills in CYA sharp dude, peace and love!
 
If you don't call the police, expect him to make something up and call them first, with his buddy to back him up. Clearly a psycho, the only way to stay safe in this situation is to move first.

Write it all down while it's fresh. Include times. Number your paragraphs. Be ready to talk to a lawyer.

Also, expect to be threatened again, if not by him, by his associate. These types of people try to draw you into a physical confrontation so that it muddies who has attacked whom. Cops first, then lawyer, then employer about why you aren't coming into work.

Yeh. The only thing about police is that:
* If you report that you have been hit&run, the guy who did it 100% at fault. What was it about insurance???
* If you do not report, the other guy can file his report first, and then you gonna be the one who rear-ended - you 100% at fault + report to your file + insurance gonna consider it for sure.

or is there something that you did not tell us?

Coming on AWD is a useless action. What effect are you expecting from that? it would be more effetive to bring AK47... oops, what was I talking about:confused5:

Don't be a drama queen. Changing your avatar to scary looking bike will not help you, driving big *** AWD car will not help you, asking for advice on public bike forum will not help you and it is not an HR/company matter. It was clear and simple action against your well-being/life. Report to police and let them handle it. At the very least go to local police station or lawyer and ask for professional advice.
 
Not sure if troll thread but going to HR to resolve a traffic accident is absolute ace move.

Reverse equivalent would be calling the police if someone took your lunch from the fridge at work. [pro-tip for next week, probably]


You must have seriously done some assholery for two dudes to willingly combine and roadblock you like that though. Your *** had to be marked for a damn good reason. And if you think they were just psychotic then that is even more reason for you not to rely on HR. Unless, all you're after is an insincere apology at the HR office.

''Come on, boys..play nice. You're all representing this firm. You're a team.''

Hopefully more than curling into the fetal position and doing nothing.
 
This reminds me of the movie "Christine" where Buddy Repperton and his gang pull a knife on Arnie Cunningham in shop class...The teacher gets involved the kids get suspended then f*cked up Christine as revenge.

I doubt your little bike will come to life and run anyone over.
 
This is the dumbest thing I have ever read.

It doesn't matter where it took place or who was involved. This happened after work hours, the people were not representing your employer at the time and the matter is wholly and entirely unrelated to the workplace. Finally, it involves your life and well-being, which does not belong to your employer.

CALL THE POLICE.

You can say it as many times as you want, but this is NOT an employer/HR issue. If you wan't to talk to them, fine. But CALL THE POLICE first.

If you don't call the Police, and this escalates further, you have absolutely no one to blame except for yourself.

Also, police don't show up unless someone is hurt..

Police show up if you call and say you heard a noise in your house - why wouldn't they show up in a situation involving premeditated assault with a motor vehicle?

You gotta also think about your company, they want to maintain a good reputation and will turn a blind eye to anything that can possibly make them look bad such as co-workers trying to run each other over.
If your HR is a lazy a** (which most of them are) why would they go through the trouble in involving themselves in more drama in which they won't be making a difference in the outcome anyways?

A 4500 lb AWD car. Weren't the co-workers driving pickup trucks/SUVs? Two 6500 lb vehicles still trump a 4500 lb one, no matter how the wheels are driven. They could simply wait until he goes back to riding the bike though, unless HR somehow manages to obtain jurisdiction from the OPP and courts. Like I said, good luck.
 
Did you even read post #103??

It was a good 45 min before yours..

You have got to be one of the most difficult people to 'help'.

You'll get what you get. That is clear...
I have no choice but to label this a troll thread also, and that's a damn shame because people have invested a lot of time and effort to help your sorry ***.
 
why are you allowing these people to dictate how you life your live. Drive your motorcycle to work. Don't give them the
satisfaction of scaring you away from what you enjoy. The moment they see you in a car they know they've got you whipped.
Just remember their vehicles are more expensive.

OP seems like a really stubborn thick headed person, maybe this is why those guys hate him so much
 
What if buddy had pulled a gun and shot at you instead of backing into you??

The perpetrators drove off, I don't want to get the police involved... I'll send an email!
