Here are a couple of "Most Likely's"
Most likely, your high beams or low beams were bothering him
Most likely Both of you were drunk, making bad decisions. His was backing up, your was not remembering you even have a horn.

When we are out after dark, we need to remember one statistic.
After dark more than 50% of drivers are drunk.

You first please. We have enough gutlessness in the country as is.

Standing your ground reminds me of the old poem:

'Here lies the body of William Jay
Who died maintaining his right of way -
He was right, dead right, as he sped along,
But he's just as dead as if he were wrong.'

Look, I'm not going to try and talk you out of Suicide, If being run over by a cage makes you feel like a real man, then by all mean...enjoy. I never said don't confront the guy, but get the hell out of the way first. I guess common sense dosen't come into play with some. I spent allmost my entire adult life studing and applying combat tactics, never once did stand there and let yourself get killed come into play. First rule of survival is to survive.

When I was in Sturgis this guy tried to sell me one of those whips that attached to the bars. Said they are used to whack cages that get too close. At the time I thought that's all I need is to start fights with cages. Would have been handy tonight!
That was never their intended purpose.

I'd prefer a combat tactical bike-dismount to combat tactical reverse- duckwalking. But to each, his own.

LOL, either way works but Combat Getting your *** run over sucks! ;-)

Oh and BTW...Right here right now is the first time I have even said "Duckwalk" in this thread. I've only said get out of the path of the vehicle.
