You pull that on me, I will wait until you pull up to a light and pull you out of your truck. I don't care what the circumstances are, trying to hurt someone because you "can" makes you a piece of **** in my book. A guy saw me trying to pass his car on my bike, and he blocks the roadway by travelling the same speed as the guy in the lane next to him because I was on his tail a little (I was in a hurry to class), I see an opening and commit, he hits his brakes and wedges me between the two cars. I was going maybe 75, his car hit my handlebars and knocked me into the other car. I bumped back off the other car and thought for sure I was going down. Somehow I stayed on the bike, I slammed on the throttle and ducked so I didn't hit his mirror. Well I hit the mirror with my helmet and then it caught my backpack and almost ripped me off my bike.

I followed him forever to wait until he stops and he drives to the police station. I would have ****ing killed him. Luckily the guy in the lane who he was pacing, saw what this jerk was doing and swerved at the right time. I could tell the guy only meant to scare me by the look on his face once he realized what nearly happened but he almost took my life, it scares me to even think about it.

Please don't screw around.

Out here in the valley, i drive a LOT of just 2 lane interstate with double yellows, and i am amazed at how crazy some people are. I never go more than 5-10 mph over the limit but for many that is way too slow. I had a guy pass my in a Tacoma yesterday that very nearly went head-on with another pickup, it was pretty scary. I cant stand that crap.

And at home in the Bay Area, there have been times when ill be driving on the freeway, doing about 70, and 3-4 motorcycles go flying by at about 120+ RIGHT NEXT TO ME within 2-3 feet. What if i had done a lane change, you cant ever see those guys coming when they travel that fast. A motorcycle death like that would be horrific not only for the rider but for the car that hit him accidentally...scarred for life.

I would never mess with anybody, i'm not one to roadrage, but rather shamefully look upon others who do.

And honestly, those of you who do claim to be ****** to others on the road (CRF), what does that gain you? personal satisfaction? why even mess around with that kinda crap? its dumb, its unsafe, its just not right. If others want to be reckless, fine, let them go. Getting involved is just asking for trouble and putting yourself in danger. Being mr. tough guy isnt THAT cool. Its not your job to "teach them their lesson."

I know that the guy was wrong, but I dont think that you should have let him pass. Please ppl, let speeders pass, do not try to be the police or call the police. That guy could have crashed and not only hurt himself but also someone else.
