Wow it's just impossible to compete with that kind of inbred buck tooth zit-exploding redneck logic. I am quite surprised he didn't go all trailer park Jackie Chan on the bikers.
Definitely sad, many people have been killed by similar stupidity. |

No time to read all 7 pages, but skimmed.
- First and foremost, the truck driver guy deserves to be impaled on that tire iron Vlad-style (look it up). - Cars are deadly weapons, but are almost uniformly not treated as such when people commit assault or even murder with them. It's not right or fair, but it's fact. The Ninja and I combined are outweighed 8-10x or more by every car out there and ride accordingly. - On 4 wheels or 2, I'm not interested in enforcing the speed limit or even my own idea of what a reasonable overage of the speed limit is; you wanna go faster, go faster. I won't cut off the car I just passed to let you by, but I'll move over as soon as I've established a safe distance. - On the flip side, I do not have some inherent right to speed on public roads or even to go the speed limit if doing so means an unsafe pass. If I wanna unleash the full potential of my car or bike, there are race courses for that. Even on the track, unsafe passes will get you a penalty. - If a person escapes danger, then stops to resume the confrontation, what happens afterwards is not self-defense. We may not (see your state's laws) have a "duty to retreat" in our homes, but we certainly do out on the open road. |

Just a note on your last bulletin. If you are referring to the rider stopping, it wasn't to continue the confrontation. They were supposedly brothers out riding (or so I had read at one point), so he had stopped off to the side of the road to wait for him after he must have thought he was safe. If you notice, his body language is more of surprise at seeing the truck again. The truck driver got out with the appearance of expecting a confrontation.
That's the only bulletin I don't fully agree with. Carry on. |

Wait...that was him in the vid? I thought it was an older guy driving a pickup truck...well, at least that's what it sounded & looked like in the vid. I must be mistaking this with another one.
I can't view vid @ work but can someone confirm if I'm thinking of the same vid/person?

Yes, this is the guy driving the truck with the 4wheeler in the back.

2 years. I wouldn't have bet on any jail time, so I guess that's a reasonably appropriate outcome to this. He plead guilty, you wonder what may have happened if he took it to trial.
