He likely was dealing with someone having a bad 'squid' day but his mentality will surely get someone killed.

I had this bitch one day try to get between me in my lane and the gaurd rail on the inside lane (trying to share the same lane with me in middle of it ) ... well i just moved over and let her go by... well the 18 wheeler didn't like what he saw her pull in his rear view... just as she got to the cab of truck... the trucker went into her lane and rubbed her ass onto the gaurd rail...... i loved it....screwed that car from front bumper to rear bumper.... she lost her attitude on runnin speeding bikers over....

Regarding the video--One shouldn't jump to conclusions. Perhaps the red car had been waiting for a long time to pass the car in front and finally gets the broken line on his side and/or a safe opportunity to pass and as he pulls over into the left lane... the biker happens to be there on his blind spot and bam!. The red car seems to be a sports car with possibly a fast driver. In positions like this the biker really needs to think and analyse the car in front of him before doing anything quickly. In aviation we are always thinking to ourselfs-- "what if ...."

Flyboy, yeah but in aviation it's mostly weather and equipment related what-ifs, a predetermined number of possibilities,
with bikes, it's what will that crazy fuck in a car do that I'm not expecting, an almost infinite number of possibilities.
Look at the shadows to the left, there was a hidden car right in front of the red car that the red car was attempting to pass.

In the beginning ,the road had white striped lines. And in the next set of passing lines where he clips the bike,the red car is way behind the the next car.
Link no worky for me by the way.

So we're driving back from a bar/restaurant and i was the DD for the night (yay water!) and we're going down this 6 lane road. We just left a light and i was in the middle lane. So i'm slowly passing these two cars on either side of me and i see in my rear view mirror this crotchrocket coming up pretty quickly. Knowing what's going to happen next i decided to take action!
He starts to go on the striped line between me and the car on my right, and just before he got up to my bumper i start sliding over to the right. Keep in mind i never left my lane and i didn't even get *that* close to the car next to me, but just enough to make it impossible for a bike to get through without clipping a mirror or two. So he slams on his brakes and gets back behind me. He then proceeds to get on my left side, flip me the finger, and try to coax me to pull over. Fuck that. He sped ahead of me about 5 car lengths and started slowing down and looking back, and wouldn't ya know it, i caught a red light and he was too far ahead to stop! darn.
Stupid fucking crotch rockets. The best part was he looked a little suprised when it happened. If any of you guys on here w/ motorcycles do that on here... do it at your own risk. There's alot of people like me out there. :hi:
....and basically got reamed a new one....so he backpedals and even gets some sympathy from a coupla' idiots who apparently don't think motorcycling is a viable transportation option...so the car/motorcyling community tell these assholes that motorcycling does have its inherent dangers on the road, both man-made/nature-made... and that motorcyclists don't need their kind of help to make it more dangerous...he and his smpathizers get reamed some more...they get reamed LOTS, like a savaged and ravaged port job by a monkey but without the polish ...most on the thread know that there's a car-meet in Boca FL that he's hoping to attend, so the hunt is out to pay him a visit since his car is somewhat unique...then someone basically asks Kyle (that's probably mopar_manic's name) "How does it feel to have a target on YOUR back?"...perfect ....
...so I go visit the sight this morning and the thread is gone, but the admin sent me a running dialog of the thread without an explanation ....there were something like 241 posts to the thread in a very short time-frame ....very passionate opinions...it was a live one with most saying that the motorcyclist may have been wrong, but that Kyle was more wrong with what he did ...there's also a thing about post whoring and that a member could get banned for such behavior ...
...I could post the dialog if you like, but it has ALOT of other stuff on it that clutters the verbage....

When are people going to learn that the road is for EVERYONE to share??? People that ONLY own cars often have zero respect for bicycles, motorcycles, joggers, skateboarders, etc. I see them putting their make-up on in their sun visors while driving 50mph in a 35mph zone in heavy traffic, not paying any attention to a possible motorcycle creeping up in their blind spot - that is one reason I want a Smeg and a Stebel Nautilus air horn!!!!
Kind of like how they say waiters make the best tippers I believe riders make the best drivers. We are more aware of the little guy than the average driver. We HAVE to be because we don't want to accidentally squish one of our friends! This guy not only sounds like a major prick, but will probably cause the death of people because of his overpowering sensation that he is GOD OF THE ROAD! I am not a big supporter of lane splitting myself - I think it is inherently dangerous, but it is legal in many states and just because a person can't fit their huge, gas sucking SUV between two cars does not give that person a right to risk the life of another just because they are getting to their destination a lot sooner than they will.

...somma da worse are the moms in their HUGE SUVs speeding in the school zone to drop off or pick up their kids while there are kids flitting about near on the roadways, on sidewalks, in crosswalks, on skateboards, scooters, bikes, walking, running...all in the excitement and absent mindedness that young kids posses when their with their friends...you'd think that the parents would know better than to speed in the school zone, but they are actually clueless...gotta get that kid to soccer or swim class...can't be late
