got hit last night

I would have kicked the crap out of someone if they kicked my car after an accident... There is a reason that bikes are so dangerous, because you can't see them! Lol Its that simple. I love motorcycles, but it is common sense. You can be paying 100% attention and still hit one.

No it's common sense that most people just don't look for bikes. Which is why, as a rider, you have to look after your own self.

It's a mix, I LOOK over my shoulder every time and on occasion have barely seen the bikes.

You can tell the truly cautious riders though, hell some even make eye contact with me sometimes. They are either trying to eye fuck me or make sure they know, that I know that they are there.

Either way, they are not in my blind spot and for riders that's the number one thing you can do. Stay behind me, stay in front of me or even at my door - but don't stay where it is least likely that I'll see you. Especially on my passneger side. Yall ride so low that if I'm luck I may see your helmet over the bed of my truck if you're doing your tuck thing and in the wrong spot.

if im riding and some ass hat trys to come in my lane and i hit their door with my fist or my foot and they start trying to fight me they would be lucky to not get shot.

you are right bikes are hard to see at times and i see kids doing stuped shit every day on them i have no respect for that kind of rider.

hell just the other night i saw a kid on a croch rocket with his GF, both didn't have a helmet on or jackets and were speeding. when i pulled up next to them i bitched them out til the light turned green.

but don't try and act like all bike are so dangerous when you don't know what your talking about. i have been riding for years and never had a wreck with a car due to me being a good rider and watching my own ass.

the way people drive around here is retarded. you have so many people doing stupid shit on the roads. a few weeks ago i had some jack ass in a vett almost hit me in the HOV lane when he cut in front of me to go around traffic. he knew i was their and did it to look like a bad ass.

Remember, that is a two way street. If you hit/kick my vehicle, how you handle yourself when we stop and the amount of damage done will dictate what happens.

Frankly, I'd never shoot or swing at you though for just that. I would fully expect you to pull over and I may even apologize if I did not see you and was about to take you out.

However, if you automatically act all gangster - it would not make for a productive situation for any of us.

I've almost been hit numerous times sitting next to the driver window in moderate,but flowing, traffic just because there is no where else to go, and my bike is overly loud. Granted 9/10 times is a female on a cell phone or someone texting. However there was one occasion this bitch just wasn't looking, didn't look, and almost took me out.

riding like you're invisible is the only way to ensure your safety.

don't trust ANYONE. seriously, if you ride and think "i'll be okay they can see/hear me".. you're in for a rude awakening.

[GeorgeG.]

everytime I begin to consider getting a bike, I come across a story like this or worse and it convinces me to not get one. I'll get the itch again in a few months and will once again come across someone's "close encounter" experience and be turned off. I swear this has been occurring for a few years now and I still don't have one.

Says the guy whose first inclination was to kick the shit out of their door for an accident.

[capristang]

your right it was my first inclination to kick the shit out of the other car.. now that i have had time to think about it i know thats retarded but i get a hot head fast with stuff like that and idk that i wouldn't have the same thought if it were to happen to me. IDK..

That's the fucking truth

[futant]

i don't understand wtf is wrong with kicking the shit out of their door?
if they come in my fucking lane while im there, I'm definitely kicking the shit out of it. so that stupid douche (that can't look) now knows that I am there.

WTF is hard to understand about that . I'm not going to wait until you finally hit me, then kick your door.
It's your stupid ass that should have looked, and my insurance isn't going to pay for shit when I tell them you were in my lane.

Because when you get caught, its wreckless driving, public endangerment, and a few other tickets that land your butt in jail. Ask me how I know.

Its not worth it now, just flip them the bird and move on.
