+1 as well. I am not usually the militant type. But you explain to some idiot that the CHP bike cop might feel as I do about a 4000lb. vehicle vs. a bike would qualify as an assault with a deadly weapon, and they suddenly realize that swerving at a bike on the freeway might not have been a good idea.
Most people on the freeway are brain dead or distracted anyway. I am doing my best to rid us all of the really bad ones. My first is in for 18 to 30 months. The second one goes to trial in 4 months. He is renting a car (his SUV is being held as evidence) to get to work pending his felony trial while out on $375,000 bail. Yes, that's 15% deposited with a bondsman.
He displayed his stupidity towards me 3 car lengths ahead of a CHP bike. I have zero sympathy.
