I'm sorry if it goes against the "biker code", but I think this guy in the video was completely wrong in what he did, and he paid the price for being a dumbass.

That's the only part we saw. He could have been verbally threatening her before he made his lame attempt to kick her car. If some asshole kicked my car like that, I'd  have beaten his punk ass. The woman did the only thing she thought she could do to get out of the situation. She was boxed in and trapped.

I don't belong to some biker brotherhood where I need to defend every rider's actions because they ride. If you do something stupid to me like that, you'll get what is coming to you. Maybe that woman made a mistake, pulled into his lane, or out in front of him. Who knows. It's happened to all of us, it will happen again. All you can do is shrug your shoulders and move on, and think about why it happened and what you might do next time to prevent it. You don't kick their car, throw ball bearings, or whatever tricks jackoffs have to get revenge on car drivers who make mistakes. I bet if it was a guy in that car he wouldn't have done anything, Bily Badass that he was.

I'm sorry if it goes against the "biker code", but I think this guy in the video was completely wrong in what he did, and he paid the price for being a dumbass.


All we know about this for sure is the guy on the bike is almost being run into from the start. Her tire is on the center line, right next to the biker, not in her lane where it should be.

The guy is pissed, we don't know why... maybe he was lane splitting and she didn't like it? We don't know.

What we do know is he showed some anger in the situation and psycho soccer mom tries to kill him.

There's no "biker code" involved here.

The guys on a bike, he's no threat, there's nothing he can do. She's in a steel cage... and tries to take him out. Beat her within an inch of her life. Nothing else to it.

Just to clarify, this is not a male / female thing. This is a whoever is driving that car needs to have the livin shit beat out of them thing.

Not arguing right or wrong, but for whatever reason he showed some road rage by kicking her car (I will admit to doing something like this myself before, almost getting smooshed does tend to make you angry.) and then she showed alot more road rage. I wonder how this all shook out in the end?

I have followed someone into a parking lot and said words to them after they got out of the car for almost running me over.  Sadly, I call the police but they don't give a shit because I'm still conscious.  I wait until they get out to make sure this doesn't happen.

Maybe she was trying to merge into the left lane and was positioning herself to do so when the light changed? Maybe she's just a bad driver and didn't realize how close she was to the line? As we have all said, we don't know. But for whatever reason, the biker was going off on her, and I can guarantee she was scared. So in a way, it IS a male/female thing, because most males wouldn't have been scared of that guy. If he was yelling at me like that, and then kicked my car, I wouldn't have run into him, but I'd have been out the car door and knocking him on his ass right there.

By biker code, I'm alluding to the point that it seems that some people think he can't be in the wrong for his actions that led up to him being rammed into. If he were calm, and didn't raise his voice or kick her car, he would not have been rammed. He seemed to forget that 2 wheels vs 4 wheels is not a fair fight.

Wow.  He must have said something pretty offensive to get her to knock his ass over.  How many times have you had even the slightest urge to run someone over or ram them (car to car) for bad driving before sense takes over and you let it go rather than escalate?  She sure as hell didn't let it go - tried to ram him into a parked car, even when he was off the bike!  

I'm with Cultureslayer - if you want to have words, wait until they're out of their car.  Your gear acts as an added bonus, too.

woulda coulda shoulda...

again, we don't know. All kinds of possibilities could have taken place prior to what we see.

But imho, when crazy person decides to ram the bike and try to take out the person on the bike, if I have a gun, I'm unloading the clip into the driver side windshield. At that point, it's either me or them...

He was the 1st to escalate, by kicking the car. Why is HE not the crazy one for letting it get to that point? Whatever it was that led up to where the video started, you need to let it go and keep calm, when you don't this is what can happen. You never know who is in that car and what their mental make up is. Maybe the person in the car is the one with a gun and decides him kicking the door is enough to empty the clip?

again... we don't know that!

we don't know anything more than what we see.

And I'll tell you again, and for the last time, no matters what happened prior, crazy person in the car is under no threat, they are protected by steel and glass... again, no threat to them, none, nada, zero, zip... get it?

Person on bike is likely to be killed...

see the diff?

In the spirit of March Madness, I'd call a double technical foul.

But then I'd eject her for a flagrant foul.  I mean really, kicked fender (dumb move on rider's part) vs. ramming someone with several thousand pounds of steel cage (excessive response on her part).

I absolutely see it- that's why when we're on our bikes we can't let these situations get the best of us and cause us to lose our composure! Was her response excessive? Sure, but we have no idea of what was going thru her mind. She might have been thinking "badass biker is going to kill me" and fight or flight mode kicked in and she took the easiest way out- thru him.

I would have ended up in jail that day. The bitch tried to kill him, plain and simple. I don't think he jumped on the hood, that was a reaction to her trying to run him over for the second time.

Or maybe the biker has a gun and decides someone trying to run him over TWICE is enough to empty a clip. Which is what should have happened. And before you go haywire, ask what would a LEO have done? He would have shot her in self defense. That is what he/she would have done. She used a deadly weapon to try and kill him not once but twice.

Yes, he was a dumbass for kicking her car.

But if you think it's acceptable for a woman to try and kill a man for kicking a damn fender with a rubber boot (not to mention the lives and personal property of others around her) your priorities are a bit skewed.  Did you see the man escalate it after she tried to kill him?  No, looks like he tried to take her keys then he walked away.  That's not the behavior of a person who's out of control and out to get this woman with his evil boot.

This bitch is cuckoo for cocoa puffs.  Crazy Case closed.

Jumping on the hood like James Bond is beyond fail. Dumbass.

Instead he should have taken her kind offer to take a ride underneath the car.

It's amazing she has the focus to activate her rear windshield wiper during all that commotion.  To be able to put rear window cleanliness before self preservation must take extraordinary concentration.  

I applaud her. Thumbsup

Something else happened before he kicked the fender. I'd like to know what the caged did previously that made him kick the fender?

Also kudos for the rider fishing the keys out of the vehicle!

Supposedly (I can't confirm it) he tried to lane split and she tried to block him and clipped him. The beginning of video might be showing the end of it. Make sense why the car is driving up quickly to catch the video. Apparently they saw something and wanted to get there.

*IF* that's how it went down, then a kick doesn't seem quite as stupid in the heat of the moment. Also makes more sense on her going crazier to try to run him down if she already was flipping out to start with. *IF*

Silly me, I just assumed it was a GoPro mounted to another riders helmet when I watched it once this AM.  Can't watch the video again since it is blocked here at work.   Crazy

ok now y'all. Go back and watch the video a little closer.

At the start of the video, the little SUV is stopped in traffic. Bike is easing up past the SUV. Bikers kicks SUV. SUV driver says fuck that, I'll return the favor and gives a bike a bump. Not a life threatening hit. Biker leaves bike on ground and goes back for some more. After that, its a blur. Biker is on hood of SUV and the SUV cuts across a few lanes of traffic and crashes into car in parking lot.

Seems like the biker keeps fanning the flames here.
