Today’s Traffic Hooligan is DXV 869 MP

22 September 2012 By Alan Straton

This vehicle, registration number: DXV 869 MP, was spotted in Mercado Centre, Admiralty Way, Summerstrand on 21/09/2012 at around 08:40 am.

Now this particular gentleman (see him running away behind his vehicle) deserves to receive top billing as a particularly silly HOOLIGAN.

He saw me taking a photograph of his illegal parking and still said to me; “I am only parking for a few minutes to load” Wrong my son, wrong. He then told me that I had better not ‘dare’ to publish the image I had taken.

Walking into the Spar I was stopped by a lady getting into her vehicle (with a disabled sticker) who told me that this gentleman I had just photographed looked closely like the one that she had parked in on an earlier occasion as he had refused to move out of the disabled parking.

In what I suppose was an attempt to intimidate me this traffic hooligan then followed me around the Spar without buying anything.

On my return to my vehicle – the traffic hooligan had parked his bakkie next to mine and proceeded to take a photograph of my registration and myself. I enquired what he hoped to accomplish by doing so and he once again threatened my person by saying; “Just you dare publish that image and you will see what happens to you!”

THIS hooligan deserves to have this image shared and re-posted on millions of web sites just for being a TRIPLE THREAT TRAFFIC HOOLIGAN.

    Well it appears he has some degree of retardation, and I think he knows it and that is why he feels he should be parked in the handicap zone! FOOL

    I don’t think the owner of DVX869MP (heading) will appreciate being falsely accused? – See picture

      Holy Cow Ludi – that mistake was all mine – I have since corrected it. Thank you for pointing that out.

    I saw this same vehicle in a disabled bay in front of Perfect Water at King’s Court a week or so ago, with large bottles of water being unloaded. Looking at http://www.perfectwater.co.za/perfect-water-shops/eastern-cape/port-elizabeth/ I think it’s pretty safe to say this is in fact Mr Dekker, franchise owner of Perfect Water PE. Guess it’s time to start buying my water elsewhere.

      mmm I had a look on the Perfect Water site and can concur that it is the same gentleman known as Francois Dekker who certainly tried to intimidate me – for those who do not wish to click through to the web site I lovingly lifted (STOLE) Francois’ image from the Perfect Water web site and attach it hereto.

      Let me hastily point out that Francois’ actions may not be indicative of the business that he is a Franchisee of so it may be premature to condemn the business as a result of one man’s misguided actions.

    Bravo Alan! The only way that gentlemen like this will learn is to have their minor (but irritating) transgressions pointed out. My grandfather had a favourite saying…”the smaller the brain, the bigger the dingus”. In this case it’s clearly “the bigger the bakkie, the smaller……..” LOL
