Glad you're okay.

Now that you have his #, I'd call my 'Uncle Guido'.

I don't know the laws in Arizona but it seems to me that the intentional act of the driver to hit you, changed this from a traffic collision to an assault with a deadly weapon. I just did a search and came up with this number. Might be worth a call. Good luck and glad you were not seriously hurt.

At the point when he's clearly trying to take you out with what is a deadly weapon and your video I am assuming would show that, I'm personally reaching behind my back and taking out my Glock 45 and being legitimately in fear of my life, I would have zero problems in using it. Crazy **** and glad ur OK.

Now in the city sure anything is possible. I have to go there once in awhile, and have been lucky to not experience that yet. Lots of blowing through lights.

People claim in other states turn in front of them is just a normal thing. Though people like to talk up bad traffic and the weather






I carry a gun. But you are a fool to think to think it is going to do you a lot of good on bike.I have heard tons of claims about ball bearings or rocks thrown over peoples shoulders. You would have to be a grade a idjit. Unless you got a fast bike and the room to use it and think you will never see that person again. If you got the room to speed off, then do it.

If you think an ******* is not going to be an ******* cause you slip them off, you are an idiot. One time I looked over my shoulder, and I did see a young girl realize it and back off. The time I flipped someone off I could have gotten killed, that guy was crazy.

Bikers say I can stop faster. Well you don't have to. No matter what vehicle you are driving you need to keep an eye in the mirror when jamming on the brakes.

Biekrs whine alot about not being seen. But they take off their brake turn signals and out on cute little lights, or smoked lens. We wear black night

You really believe you are going to pull that off?
Maybe you could get it out on the highway. But in city traffic you are going to control your bike, and get the bike out?

Which way does grip point? You giving up clutch or throttle and front brake?

Here's how the world works...

No matter how much in the right you are.... pull a gun at a stop light, the guy behind you parks his car on top of you & claims self defense.... and wins.

I don't know about AZ; but, in Texas if you try to hit someone with your car it is a felony - assault with a deadly weapon. Smart thing to do is to use the mobility of the bike to use other cars as blocking and get the hell away from the idiots. Go to a public place and call the cops immediately. That way if he attempts to find you they will already be on the way.

Earlier this week we had a road rage incident on IH10. Seems one vehicle supposedly cut the other off. The one that was cut off started chasing the other vehicle. That vehicle exited the highway and pulled into a public parking lot. The other guy pulls in and starts shooting at the driver. Turns out the other driver was a city cop who returned fire. The cop got hit 6 times and the other guy got hit 3 times. Both in the hospital in critical condition.

Now, I ask you.....even if someone cuts you off......is that cause or reason to try and take their life? I think not. People are just stupid, idiotic, and immature.

I ride packing most of the time and with curtesy. You signal you intention....I get out of the way and let you over. If you are riding my butt....I flash the lights....you don't back off, I will either move over and get you in front of me because you either have a depth perception problem, been told 1/4 inch is 8 inches all your life, momma and dad dropped you too much on your head, you are a serious drug abuser or all of the above. The other alternative is rock and roll on down the highway and leave you in the dust.

If the responding officer refuses to take a report then I would go to the station house and file a complaint against the driver and the officer.
