It's a clear night the air is crisp not cold well not so cold as to cause a chill but cool enough to atomize fuel well so the bike feels like its running on 105 race gas. Coming from the North and I’m headed to my girls house I down shift as I enter the transition road to the surface street as a broad smile pushes the corners of my mouth wide into my cheeks, ahhh the sound of well running V4 with a full exhaust system on deceleration. “Humph” I think to myself as I decide to switch on the right turn signal when I need to go left, “better to make a U-turn at the light than to try and cross the road in front of the freeway on ramp on the other side”. See this particular transition dumps you at a stop sign just below (if your going left) the on ramp for the same freeway. Always amazes me when people making a right trying to beat vehicles going onto the freeway on ramp meeting them almost head on in their turn lane. I don't want to be one of “those guys”.

"Lead by example" I allways say... make the right and the U-turn at the light should be safer right, right...?

My signal is on the light turns green and I start my turn. Out of the corner of my eye I see head lights moving to fast to stop at the intersection coming straigh for me but I’m already around the bend. Its all I can do to tighten my already tight arc as the 4 Runner looks as though its going to flip trying to keep his right turn arc tight enough so as not to punt me over the island back into the turn lane.

With out a tinted visor I make very clear eye contact, his eyes are open wide and a little surprised but I see no remorse. My gaze if possible would have shot turbo boosted, nitrous propelled knives so fast thru his eyes the whole back half of his head would have just exploded off the circumference all the way around from behind the ears.

We're now side by side each in are own lanes and its about to merge into one. Still surprised this person so blatantly blew the light I keep eye contact waiting to read the lips say I’m sorry, There is nothing but a blank stare on his gray haired 50 something empty head. Nothing and now on top of blowing through a red light this jerk wants to merge and the dumbass isn’t signaling. Maybe a refresher is in order, I pull in front
of stupid**** just enough to keep dipshist back, turn on my right signal and point at it then point at numbnuts left signal he continues on but slowing so I give ****heads Toyota a healthy shot of Sidi to the front left fender “Donk” it probably sounds just as hollow if I put a boot to this jackasses head.

What?! What's this!? Buttmunch is rolling down his window... Does this idiot now want to apologize? Well my man it is about time we're running out of a lanes here. Also, my fuse has just about burned out of sight and
getting ready to set me off. The window stops about half way as I let the offender pull up beside me and he says “I’ll run you off the road”.

“Whoa” I think to myself did ****stick just say what I thought dildo brain said? “Keep calm” I tell myself, I quip back “ You just ran a red light and now your trying to merge into my lane without signaling, I don't doubt
that one bit... maybe we should talk about it”.

Assfaces face has now changed from surprise to utter fear. “Yeah! Get outta’ your truck and lets talk about it! We’ve come to complete stop now and still side by side.

“**** you” this bastard tells me. Just then out of the corner of my eye, I see Five-0 coming towards us running code2 (lights no Siren). I put the bike in neutral and start waving my clutch hand trying to get his
attention. Maybe he thought I was just saying “HI” I was thinking citizens arrest for attempted murder, I mean monkeycock did just threaten to run me off the road.

As I turn my head and watch my one chance to do something legal about an arrant motorist go by, pigtesticle takes this chance to get around me and into the turn lane to enter the freeway on ramp heading North. While ****o waits for oncoming traffic I roll up to the driver side window and say something to the effect of “So that’s it you just run a light almost kill me, then threaten to kill me, then run away like a little bitch?!”

“**** you” this sack of elephant turd says.

SSSsssssst KABLAM!!! Says the mirror as its plastic carcass spits up all its tiny shiny little bits of reflectiveness in the air as the cracked plastic shell finds it way spinning violently over the threshold of the hood of the vehicle with the shiny twinkling bits following in a flowering fireworks display.

With this...well with out the driver side mirror, I watch duffus struggle to accelerate up the ramp after a small fishtail after making the turn.

So if you see a latter 80’s model Silver or light blue Toyota 4 Runner missing a driver side mirror with a graying 50ish’ possible alcoholic behind the wheel. Let him know I’d still like a word with him....

I know what it's like being "harrased".

I can not condone your actions though.

If he'd been responding to your family member being attacked, victimized, etc. I'm sure you'd still be calling him that, right?

I mean, how dare he not stop because you ALMOST got hit. Arguably, you have "almost" hit every vehicle you've passed while splitting lanes (in the cagers narrow viewpoint).

anyway-

I don't condone the drivers actions in any way. Since I've been riding, I've almost been taken out several times. So have most riders.

BUT-

If you attacked his vehicle, you went the extra step. You have entered the realm of misdemeanor, my friend. You escalated the situation, and then took action. Not good for you, and not good for riders.

Look, you got's to chill bud. You've experienced "road-rage", and that's a big escalation from simply being pissed. You might want to check that.

I've busted a mirror or two for the same reason. I am not proud of it, but I also do not believe being in a car gives you the right to be rude and nearly kill me. I always back off for people who signal. If you cut me off to cross three lanes of traffic because you're yacking on your cell phone and not paying attention....grrrr....

Scout

I'm not trying to start an argument here. If you ride on the street, you know you are inherantly taking a chance. If you don't, let me be the first to tell you.

I don't condone bad driving, and am in no way siding with the jacked up drivers on this topic.

With that said,

1. If you strike out against drivers by defacing their vehicles, you're setting yourself up for failure. You've not only discredited yourself in front of anyone else who witnessed this event, but for other riders out there, including me, who don't want to be seen as an ******* biker. People who've seen you take these measures, including the victim (yep, he/ she is a victim - you didn't almost take out the window/ mirror/ dent etc.), will most likely report this to an LEA. And we wonder why we're always getting pulled over...

2. The drivers may be armed. I'm pretty sure the drivers know you aren't carrying a crowbar or bat on you. Can you say the same for them. Not to mention, a bullet is faster 0-60 than any sportbike. This may sound harsh to the un-initiated, but if someone committed a driving transgression against you (aware or unaware), and you began calling them on AND kicking the crap out of a vehicle, they could be justified in shooting you for "fear of their life". That would be unfortunate for you, your family and friends.

3. The driver committed an infraction. You did not get hit or die (thanks to your god like reflexes and riding prowess), and you are un-injured except for your ego (and possibly emotional stability). You, on the other hand, threatened the drivers directly, and in violence lashed out on their vehicle. Hmmm, doesn't sound like you have much of a case for your actions when put in that perspective, does it.

I'm trying to point this out to you, before a judge or jury does, saving you time and money.

Be Safe, and Ride Well.
