You must have been to far to the right and looked like a moped on the shoulder :-)
I still have a hard time believing that a car could pass any bike ( that is actually running) on an on ramp.

Must have been that lack of C14 low end power?
Glad you are ok.
You truly take your life in your own hands getting out on the road these days.

I've had a hot rodder pass me on the shoulder just as I slowed down coming to an intersection where I had to turn right. He was going FAST - so I never saw him in the mirror, and if I did not have the habit of ALWAYS looking next to me when I move out of my lane I would have been toast, signals and all.
That was on my '94 Magna and I think he did it because I had punched it a while before - nothing to do with him, I just wanted to whack it a little before shutting down for the day, but he wanted to prove something - and he almost killed me.

it was a total shock and a big "WTF" when the car appeared only but an inch beside me while I was carrying a passenger of all things... when I caught up to the lady I was furious - I was damn near ready to punch a dent in the side of her car.. I looked at her and gave her the bird.. her husband looked away and wouldnt even look in our direction.. he knew that she had screwed up big time. She had 2 kids in the back seat. Totally tragic. She kept mouthing that she was sorry.
Man... unbelievable.
