The car/bike did absolutly nothing to you, nor will it for anything that happens to it. Take it up with the rider/ driver. BUT that doesnt mean I havent kicked the door/fender of my share of cars trying to share lanes. |

| Telemark Rider ![]() Joined: Jan 2006 From: Outer darkness . . . I Ride: Nothing for a while now (tear) | Everyone that worries about lane splitting needs to look outside out little sphere. In the rest of the world it is seen as normal, and is often done for safety an convenience. But here we all act like a bunch of ninnies. 'Omg, he was being so dangerous!', and other shit like that. No, it wasn't me, but what that 'brainless rider' was doing was not making him/her more likely to crash. Because when it all comes down to it and the studies are done it just doesn't even show up. If you don't want to split, then don't, but quit thinking it is going to get me or someone else killed, because it doesn't. But as vtwin pointed out, don't be an asshole and cut cars off either. |

I just want to say from my own eyes, the way I saw this guy ride. I really didnt see much splitting. I just saw unnecessary speed and cutting people off. I agree with you about splitting. I do it sometimes aswell. I just have been making my way through traffic and seen him just fly by me. Its just drawing attn to the area is all. |

It'd just passed emissions ~2w prior & although slightly 'loud' compared to the day it rolled off the floor, the car was by no means modified or had any real problem going on. I didn't use an attorney but i subpoenaed the officer who didn't show up but even so the judge made me argue and i think the only thing i did was re-state what the ticket said in that "the officer thought my exhaust was loud" *edit* i may have tossed the emissions test in the mix too - it was tossed out. | |

As long as the guy didnt wreck it or cause someone else to then more power to the psycho... if he can perform well at those speeds in rain, switching lanes like partners at a 70's swingers party, then damn! He deserves to ride quick... when it comes down to it im glad he is military! Those are the gunho boys we need overseas! 1-sec of hesistation gets you killed in either aspect! |

Why chase someone down to whip their ass is it really worth the time road rage assult that you are committing. Dare some ass jockey to chase me down for speeding and want to give me an ass whipping cause they deal with business end of my 40 cal. I swear officer I was in fear of my life look at the size of that guy he could have killed me with his bare hands. If you are not a cop piss off you have no right to chase someone down and fuck with them. ![]() | |
