So I'm on my way to work this afternoon. Cruising down the highway on my RK at about 70 mph and enjoying the gorgeous sunshine and 75 degree temps. I'm right behind some oblivious assclown in an SUV when all of a sudden he has a sudden urge to wash his windshield! Who does that? I got a second shower even before I got to work! I couldn't even give him the finger when I got up along side him cuz he was off in la la land and never knew I was there!
They're out there folks. In full force. Watch out, be careful, and ride safe. Rant over.

No. Not my first. Won't be my last. Just shocked at the obliviousness of people these days! The loud pipes, bright lights, fluorescent shirts, high decibel horns...it helps, but doesn't matter. People aren't and won't see us cuz they're not looking for us! Simple as that!
I mean people in cars or bikes deserve equal respect and there is a reason for pipes to be street legal.
So this goes both ways guys.

You sound surprised, but it happens all the time.
Hopefully, the next time it happens to you, it will be just seconds AFTER he flicks out his lit cigarette butt, and his windshield washer fluid extinguishes your pants leg and/or jacket.

Semi truck lost a radiator hose, that sucked. And I know he meant to do it.
Guess I've been lucky, in all my years of riding not really had too many of these and for the past year or so, been riding to work nearly every day when it was above 40.
Damn karma's commin' now, crap.

I was gonna say that, but wanna point out that other cars will see any gap between you and the car in front of you as a place to squeeze in at high speeds
