Most of you chaps in HDF drive on the wrong side of the road and it is a wonder to me that you don't have more accidents!

I pray to mother earth that I will have the sense to know when it's time to stop riding and stop driving (if I live that long!).
Mother is 94; she stopped driving last year after totalling her 2ND CAR!
Each time, one car accident, no one hurt, not a scratch on her.
I told my son, "Grandma wrecked her car again" . .
He said "God don't want her . . "

Well, I would not have stopped anyone who felt like smashing your window in with their helmet, dragging you thru it and beaten the crap out of you ...

No one should ever be allowed to use an automobile as a dangerous weapon ... they are dangerous enough as they are ... and whoever does should be charged as if they had used any other legal weapon. If the guy escapes charge, then it is open season on any biker in any group of riders prejudicially portrayed as a "gang".

Think about it ... someone sees a group of Harley riders ... "it's a gang ... they had tattoos ... I was afraid ... so I drove straight thru them"!?!

You really shouldn't joke when some father of two has been turned into a paraplegic for life just because he went back to help a friend ... which appears to be the case here.

At that point the cage driver wilfully ran down a pedestrian. The whole thing was absolutely unnecessary.

I appreciate that is this is some racial issue you have strong prejudices about, just because the riders were black, then it's a different matter but as a biker who has been knocked over by a care-less cage driver, who saw me but still carried straight on, I'll take the side of the bikers and pedestrians.

Old people have an excuse for driving like crap. Texters are just POS a-holes, who are only worried about themselves.
A-effin-men!

Yeah, well, see how long you live riding on the "left" side of a road in the USA.
