    Default Motorcyclist attacked by road raging driver

    This motorcyclist gets raged on by an older, less coordinated guy and the rider proves his sainthood by not pummeling him throughout the ordeal. I'm pretty certain the moment my wife was shoved like that I wouldn't have been as laid back as this guy was. I'm impressed with the way he stayed cool, luckily he had his helmet cam rolling and the driver wasn't the most capable foe.

    How would you have handled it if you were him?

    When he's on the ground his eyes freak me out. That driver may not know karate but he knows crazy!
    The rider seemed to handle it well.

    Damn.



    Step one: Avoid that situation if at all possible.


    I would have run the light when I saw him get out of his vehicle. From what information I have, it seems the biker handled things pretty well... The driver almost seemed drunk.

    Afterthought: WTF? They guy was wearing flip flops, while trying to start a fight against 2 younger people in the middle of the road by punching a guy wearing a full-faced helmet. Time to start making better choices.

    I always watch confrontations involving riders hoping eventually one of them will head butt the dumb ass who confronts them.

    Just wow... I've had many cages run me off the road while on my bikes (bicycle or motorcycle) and cut me off, and other assorted 'bad manners' on the road.

    Dude was definitely out of control.
