i've seen it many many times, from both bikeS and cars, that's how i know i could have de-escalated it all way before the video starts.
my goal when driving is to avoid altercations, events, issues, etc. i've seen shit like this coming from a mile away in my rearview and i move out of the way. if they want to be agressive and belligerent on the road, well, best thing for me and my fam is to let them. a chunk of concrete is not worth fighting over. it's your's, you're welcome.  |
The thing you're clearly not understanding is that most people don't speak fuckhead, so aren't going to know special secret fuckhead rules of how fuckheads think you should act while they're being fuckheads.
My biker friends (not club members, just enthusiasts) basically say they way they ride is to pretend they are invisible, not do anything stupid, signal, be very clear. Based on these conversations if a pack of motorcyclists came up from behind me the logical thing for me to do would be to not change anything in my driving so as to not spook them or do anything a cyclist might find unexpected. If some cunt tried to brake check it would clearly seem completely antagonistic and of course wholly unexpected, I'd just be waiting for them to pass by on the other MULTIPLE lanes. If someone doesn't speak fuckhead how are they supposed to know these animals want to shut down the whole freeway and will harass and brake check people to do it?
You make out like he acted incorrectly, he acted perfectly in the situation and according to the road rules, he might not have known the special secret fuckhead road rules that make a bike gang above the law, that but that's not his fault, it's theirs for not doing a letterbox campaign and informing people of their special rights on the road and how to act around animals. Just like in the wild, most people will freeze (ie continue driving legally exactly as they were) until the "danger" passes. Which is exactly what he did until the fuckhead caused the accident by brake checking him. He was even on the phone reporting their shitty activity, which is confirmed by the rest of the videos of them running red lights and driving on footpaths inches away from pedestrians. I suppose the pedestrians should know how to walk on a footpath too and always be on the lookout for packs of motorfuckheads?
Having been on the receiving end of almost this exact same situation (a fuckhead in a car brake checking and menacing in traffic for miles, to almost complete stops on a freeway - but no vehicular contact) completely blamelessly on my part, the fuckhead thought I beeped him when it was the car next to me beeping the car in front of them for being slow on green at the lights... I have less than zero sympathy for these animals. If I could have shot the motherfucker or rammed him I would have. All the more galling for being completely innocent of the "crime" of beeping someone for being slow on green. We wouldn't have lost anything as a species, just another moron or 'roid head, same as in this case.
The point is, sometimes you can't avoid situations because they aren't of your own making, you are following all the rules to a T and you don't know the fuckhead code and what might set people who think they have special rights off, with a beep, a bad look, slow driving, fast driving, they have their man-rags because their life is so shitty jerking each other off on dirt bikes is all they have etc.
