Latest road rage video
« on: June 22, 2017, 08:43:21 AM »

Seems that this biker got cut off and thus decided to kick the side of the offending drivers car.  This prompted a chain reaction ya gotta see to believe.

He was damn lucky to keep the bike upright and (escape) the scene.............stay tuned for updates. :-\

Never a good idea to fight with a vehicle 3-4 times your size no matter the circumstances.

Well, in this case.....wasn't a good idea for the car to pick a fight with the motorcycle.  :P

When I start to feel the anger rise from the stupidity of some drivers and I want to give them a look or "what the heck" hand gesture (no, not the proverbial finger wave...), I feel a tap on my shoulder (whether Vickie is there or not) reminding me to remain calm and let it go.  You never know the exact attitude of the other driver and what they may or may not be carrying/packing OR if they choose to use their vehicle as the weapon as in this case.
Karma caught up with the cage driver (and wrong place/wrong time for the Avalanche driver) but it could have gone 180 against the rider with them skating pavement.... :nixweiss:

The motorcycle rider is a coward. What a rat, he took off from the scene and the accident that he created. I hope karma gets him in the next curve.

We don't know what or who "started" the incident.  Something happened before what we see to precipitate the rider kicking the car.  Kicking the car is a dumass thing to do no matter what though.  People shouldn't fight with bears and bikes shouldn't fight with cars.

The rest is a no brainer though.  The accident was obvious.  The rider was a chickenchit.  Left the the scene worrying about his own ass when he knew someone else's might be jeopardy.

Person that posted the video reported that there were some issues before it went this far. That's why they started the video. I'm sure that rider was about crapping his pants when that car swerved into him and then hit the wall in front of him. Only he knows what was going through his mind at the the time.

Does not matter what happened before. He made the choice to create an accident and then he took of like a rat. I hope they catch him and that he gets maximum penalty under the law for this.

That's a stellar example of the type of situation to not get into...

If someone tries to cut you off, you LET them in. Then, when the opportunity SAFELY presents itself, you go AROUND him.

Given weight distribution and where it mostly is,  can make a car understeer or oversteer.  This car driver that tried to wipe out the biker,  found out the hard way that (front wheel drive) and a quick jerk of the steering wheel can show ya what oversteer is all about.  He deserved what he got,  but not the truck driver that caught up in it and got overturned as a result. :-\

The biker shouldn't have kicked the car and just let it go. That is no excuse for the car driver trying to kill him which is what he was trying to do. The car driver caused the accident with his reaction to a reaction.
