    If it were me he would've gotten a karate chop to the throat. Very impressed with the chaps' composure.

    It seems strange ... no pictures PRIOR to the motorcycle stopping at the intersection ...


    No doubt Police would be interested seeing such footage. (accidently deleted .. ???)


    But being KB ... there is ONLY one side to (worth listening too/seeing) about this story ...




    But (apparently) ... it is OK to take the keys off overseas tourists ... if you think THEIR driving is shit ... (after you get them [somehow] to stop)
    When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...

    The rider was restrained. What he had done was spoken of which was filtering. Probably not legal in that state.

    But thats a problem for the police to deal with.

    The attacker is lucky the rider was not carrying. He would have been close to his right to defend himself with fatal force.

    I believe the attacker faked a medical event once he realized the trouble he was in and that it could be proven.

    I reckon that happened at about the time the cruiser rider in the other lane pulled up to offer assistance.

    Just read the driver was taken to hospital as he broke his ankle in the fall to the ground.

    No mention of the bird on the back giving the car driver the finger then, or the rider kicking the wing mirror on the way past. Without the lead up to the incident there is only one story here. Showing it would have proved the driver was off his head, not showing it when the footage is clearly available does the opposite.

    Well as the driver has been arrested and the rider not kinda points to the driver being at blame.

    In some places ... assault is taken seriously.


    In no way could it mean ... the motorcyclist was blameless in the event.

    Sure we don't see how the biker was riding but violence is never the solution and the car driver admitted he was using it as a response to driving behavious

    I don't know how someone can watch this and immediately blame the motorcyclist. He even said something like "what because I went between you and another car" to which the driver responds "yeah".

    But I can't think of what the motorcyclist could have done to justify such behavior. The motorcyclist showed unbelievable restraint.

    It happened in Yuma Arizona. In Arizona it is illegal to split/filter... need I say more?

    Doesn't explain the eye popping rage.

    You can at several points in the clip see the driver is clearly not thinking straight.
    He is not on a fit state to be a judge let alone jury or executioner.


    Civilised society had no place for vigilante justice when said justice is issued unjustly.

    Whats with all this nonsense analysis of a video clip? lets face facts here, biker's are NEVER in the wrong, not ever.

    No one has questioned why there is no video of what happened prior to car mans attack...could it be that, biker's are NEVER in the wrong, not ever.
