Default so what does a real **** look like

driving along around 75mph going west from interior south dakota to rapid city

two lane road

next thing i know there is this white blob on my left coming over at me

big suv had just attempted to pass me but misjudged and the oncoming cars forced him to just come over on me

if you know the road then you know that there is no shoulder to speak of and it drops off.

i was able to break and move over enough, but that is really scarey

eventually the road went into a 4 land divided. i came up next to him just to see what a real **** looks like

i pulled up even with him and looked over and he started laughing

@%#^$@!!!!!!!!!!

first time i really had wished i carried

followed him until i went next to him, then i got in front. he pulled into a gas station. i thought of turning around and had come up with the idea of pouring oil over his windshield, just to be a pain, but then my christian upbringing.............................

Just try not to take it personally. I see cagers do all kinds of **** to other cagers all the time when I'm on my bike. I got to admit though that I wish all motorcycle riders were feared by the public-they might be a little more careful when they see a bike.

Mark, I understand the anger and frustration but ask yourself what you would have done had you been armed?

Would it be worth losing everything you have to "teach someone a lesson" or put the fear of G-d in them?

most times i kinda let it go, it was the laugh that got me.

but sure felt i wanted to do something. i might have thrown something at him, but he had some kids in the car and i didn't want them to pay for the errors of the driver.

Rest assured he will face his creator one day. It's sad but people are a-holes. Don't let them spoil your fun

Many years ago, I realized that I was neither a driving instructor nor a cop. I also don't want to be one either. I then gave up getting mad or trying to get a point across to others on the road. I just protect myself and smile/wave nicely at drivers that make mistakes. They don't get mad, I don't get mad and you can actually see them say "I am sorry".
