WOW! I can't believe the degree of bias in this thread. First I will make the disclaimer that I don't agree with anything, anyone did in this video. So, I'll just make the points I see from this video ans some of you may or may not like what I will say.
The video begins with two sport bikers obviously exceeding the speed limits and conditions for this two lane shared highway. It reminds me of a sport biker that passed my Harley doing about 90 in a 35 mph zone in a state part full of animals no more that a few hundred feet from a blind hill top. I told my wife, "he won't make it". As we crested the same hill I saw the bike on the roadside with a trail of plastic parts all along the highway. He was just attepting to stand up as I pulled along side and asked if he needed help. He responded that he was OK. From the looks of his shreaded riding gear, visible skin rash and blood I would say he was in shock and didn't feel any pain YET. He called 911 and help arrived about 30 minutes later.
When I asked him "What Happened?", he explained that there was a buffalo right in the middle of the road as he topped the hill. He was lucky that he missed and also lucky it wasn't a young bull, because a young one would have finished him off with a good stomping as they hate motorcycles.
OK, back to the video. That was a double yellow line on a short curve with limited visability. Double yellow lines are put there for a reason. They basically imply that it is not safe or legal to pass. So, what gives sport bikers the right to ignore these conditions and pass anyway? I do have a bias against sport bikers and Harley riders, or any vehicle that ignore these conditions and pass anyway. I have had to run off the road on several occasions to avoid the flying chunks of metal resulting from head-collisions or avoid being in a head-on myself do to people passing in unsafe conditions. Lots of cagers practice this dangerous habit, not only endangering their own lives but the lives of others who are completely innocent as well. If you were coming in the opposite direction with a young son or daughter on your bike only to be killed by this person with no regard for the law would that impact your opinion in any way?
Now the truck driver certainly lost control of his immotions and did the wrong thing. But, I can say that on many occasions, having been the other person who's like was eendangered by the actions of sport bikers doing just what we saw in the first few minutes of this video, I too have felt like running some of the over. Usually, if a driver in a car or truck does this to me I follow them to their destination and confront them calmly, asking why they think my life is not precious.
Sooner or later, some person endangered by the unlawful actions of a motorcycle is just gonna do a drive by shooting. Think about that the next time you think the road "belongs to you"..
