Another car pulling into the carpool lane and not looking, this time though the motorcyclist has time to avoid the car, being upset he kicks car so hard it spins out (not really he kicks the car to warn it) and the car driver tries to run him over and ends up wrecking their car.. All recorded for your viewing pleasure... hell of a kick...  Video at Link Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SipVcZZA94s | ||

That's not what happens in the video. The driver of the car swerves and this is what causes the accident. The Laws of Physics are intact. Also, the video looks doctored. Since when do cars explode when banging into a wall like that? | |||

Both parties are wrong. The MC rider better hope he can't be ID'd because he's the bigger a-hole in that incident, and could face both criminal and civil liability. ___________________________________________ "He was never hindered by any dogma, except the Constitution." - Ty Ross speaking of his grandfather General Barry Goldwater "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want." - William Tecumseh Sherman | |||

True that is what happened, however in keeping with the trend of interweb reporting, wrote it the most absurd and nonfactual way.... aka biker kicked car into spin... | |||

| Made from a different mold  |
Not sure which video you watched, but from what I can gather, the guy on the bike is letting the offending car know that there is someone else already in the lane. The driver of the car either over-reacted when they were startled by someone else already being in the lane or they purposely tried to hit the guy on the bike as retaliation for kicking their car. I've seen instances like this play out a few times in Phoenix. A few guys I knew carried a length of chain they would use to smack a car with when they were too close. It's easy to lay blame on the guy on the bike because he was clearly out of the way because he showed great situational awareness, but honestly, I think anyone who comes that close to dying has a right to be upset, especially because the road was clear in front of the car that caused all of this, and there was no need to even get in that lane! ___________________________ No thanks, I've already got a penguin. | |||

That video doesn't include the entire event. From the article:

That wasn't an explosion. Just sparks from the metal scraping on either the concrete or other metal parts of the car. | |||

No, just trying to be silly not subversive in the title, I'll change it... | |||

I think the sparks are the metal of the fender dragging on concrete barrier | |||

My guess is that both drivers had been jawing at each other for a while. The MC rider kicking the door didn't help and I think the car swerves at the MC in retaliation for kicking his door - then physics take over as they are wont to do. I'd imagine the MC rider is on the hook for hit and run. P229 | |||

^^^^^^^^^^^^ You mean "kick and run"????  "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Go Vols! |
Unless there was more prior to that, it looked like the car driver was startled by the kick, swerved and totally lost control | |||

I would say the Bike was fully allowed to kick the car.. Would it have been better to let the car continue until he hit the bike? _______________________________ 'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but > because he loves what is behind him.'
