If I was on the motorcycle....I just keep going. The dude in the truck is obviously unhinged. So worked up he forgot to put his truck shifter into park when he stopped. Then I noticed he was also wearing Crocs!!! Oh the humanity....... :rolleyes:

Too bad the truck didn't coast into a river.

That was a completely stupid situation. The guy on the motorcycle shouldn't have stopped, shouldn't have been anywhere that the guy in the truck could get to him. And, maybe I'm wrong because I don't fight, but should have kept is helmet on. If you're going to get into a fist fight with some random stranger, may as well keep your helmet on.

Wow, very messed up, 165# 5'10" kid on a bike tries to fight 6'8" 310# guy that was probably double his age. That was almost comical.

The MC was nice enough to shout out the pu rolling.
The green dude needed to turn around and go home.

Right, the kid saved the old man from himself, and he still wanted to pummel him.

The kid may or may not have been speeding or driving dangerously. I've been in cars that looked and or sounded fast and had "old men" yell at me to slow down despite me driving the speed limit. I've also seen those same old men shoot past my house at 10 over in a 20 zone in their whisper quiet lincolns and toyotas.

It's been my observation that drivers who drive at or below the speed limit are usually the worst drivers when it comes to using common sense. They are the ones who usually run a light or gun through a stop sign or pull out in front of someone.

Slow left lane drivers are a hazard....to everyone bunched together behind them because of their unwillingness to move. My favorite is when they are reading a book or watching a movie (I've seen both on I-85 near Atlanta). South Carolina passed this law recently to combat it.

The driver safety concept here is known as "traffic flow".

It's a real concern and something based on science - not emotion.

Which is why it is so important.

Of course most don't realize nor understand this concept because it's never mentioned by media in their reporting of road rage incidents.

My friend had a loud track car and was driving through his neighborhood one time. A neighbor yelled at him to slow down. My friend stopped and told the guy he was confusing volume with velocity and drove off.

Multiple dashcam videos show two vehicles involved in a road rage incident that happened on a Dallas highway.

A little before 1:45 p.m. on March 1, 2024, a driver in Dallas captured video of a truck with a flatbed trailer and SUV involved in road rage on an overpass between I-35E and I-635. The driver shared it on his Instagram account, @sookmiyagi. The driver of the truck also shared his dashcam video of the incident.

In part of the dashcam video, the SUV driver appears to be brake-checking in front of the truck and trying to keep the truck driver from getting around him.

When the truck drives into the left lane trying to get around the SUV, the SUV then veers to the left as well and crashes into the truck. As the truck continues to drive forward, the flatbed trailer rips the bumper off the SUV before driving away.

After these videos were posted, the driver of the SUV reached out to WFAA through social media and shared video of what appears to be what happened before the videos that went viral.

In that video, the truck driver looks to be changing from the left lane to the right lane without leaving enough room between the SUV driver and the truck in front of him. The truck's trailer appears to clip the left side of the SUV based on the shaking of the vehicle's dashcam video.

The SUV then drives into the left lane, trying to get around the truck. However, the truck driver moves into the left lane as well, driving past the left edge of the lane and leaving very little room between the SUV and the edge of the highway.

This looks to be what led to the dashcam video initially posted to Instagram.

People are fargin' insane. I try to avoid "people" as much as possible.

Yeah but the comments on that video are worth the price of admission! :D

I hadn't seen the comments, but there are some good ones.
This was at the top of the list.
"The Ram was trying to Escape and the Escape was trying to Ram."

Smart man. He dodged a bullet.

Motorcycle was speeding in the opposite direction through residential per the news report.
Bigfoot waved at him to slow down.
Moto turned around, caught up, and parked next to his pickup.
"How dare you tell me to slow down"

That's how it started, I think. Tango partners.

Many years ago I met a Dodge Aspen on the road near home and was so alarmed at the amount of negative camber on his left front wheel, I flagged the driver down. When I told him why I had asked him to stop, his response was, "WTF business is of yours?". I responded that I drove these roads every day and didn't want to be met with a wheel coming off some car. He did not take my concerns to heart, uttered another obscenity and left the scene at what I guessed was full throttle.
Shortly after that I believe the vehicle failed an impromptu roadside inspection. ;)
Hey, it's a small town. :D

I noticed a car with an almost flat tire once and motioned for the driver to roll her window down.

She did so and immediately told me "Eff off....I already have an effing boyfriend!"

Then I informed her of her almost flat tire.

She then asked me if I could help her with it.

I replied "Why don't you ask your effing boyfriend?"

:D

Yea Baz!
Good looks and a quick wit.
:D
