Yeah, it looks like they had a disagreement, the car was crowding the biker so he kicked the car then the car swerved into the biker and lost control. However, the biker can't just drive off so I believe that's a hit and run.

That Avalance mishap brings back memories. I had my Dodge Ram rear ended once on the freeway and it flipped over just like that. That's a sickening feeling once you know you're going on your roof.

in the news

Man that went south QUICKLY. Wowwwwww.

I don't get why cyclists think it's a good/safe idea to kick a car. Some of them also roll with a bashing weapon hanging off the handlebars so they can hit a car coming toward them. Regrdless of the reason for doing it, antagonizing a 3,000lb guided missile should never be an option.

something that troubled me was, I did not see a single brake light from the car the entire time even up to the point where it came to a dead stop on the highway. Did the driver just not even attempt to brake?

this made the news in the UK today, hopefully Karma will come back and kick that total C**T on the bike, right in his nuts
As a biker myself, I can see how it can be frustrating when you get cut off by cars that don't see you. I think that's what happened.
But the driver definitely swerved into the biker as you can see after the biker kicked the car.

I know bikers don't like cagers like us, but I think in this case the Sedan driver should be charged with attempted murder or manslaugher

Said was a teenager who claimed the biker waved a knife at him.

Personally the Biker aggravated the situation by kicking the car. Two wrongs dont make a right and frankly imho the biker is just as liable especially since he rode away.

There are way too many youtube vids out there of bikers purposefully knocking off mirrors and doing things just like this from perceived slights or when they feel they are wronged in some way...this is just another example. Plus most of them after they damage a vehicle they ride off...pure punk move..just like the biker in the vid.

Right turn lane with a green arrow on a controlled intersection with red light cameras on all corners. This is a situation where I have to decide which car to get behind because my spidey sense tells me one of them is going to stop at that green arrow..... AND both of them stopped and trapped me on the corner.

I don't usually lose my shit in traffic since patience is my superpower, but that crap was rant worthy.

That area of Sugar Land always pisses me off, especially when I make that left turn from the 3rd lane, and the people from first two lanes try to cut over in front of you to get to Town Center.

I hate when people pull this kind of shit.
I am like if you can't make it in the line, either go straight or make a right and come back instead of blocking people.

Don't knock stupid. Neither of us would be here without stupid. I guarantee we all have some ancestor between Noah and ourself who was stupid and probably industrial grade. ;)
