Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.

Being the vulnerable person in that equation the biker was being a prick lashing out at a car whist riding along.
If the car had already cut him up (I did not actually notice) then he should have been grateful to have survived that without going hunting for trouble.
Not that it makes it ok for car drivers to take that sort of action.

Could it be that the driver was distracted at the car thumping biker that he did not see the car in front brake and had to swerve. When he swerves you can see a car in front.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

My main criticism is of the camera person. Filming vertical and then getting all shaky and stopping the film short. 3/10 must try harder.

Not convinced fazersharp, the car in the right lane is about level with the lead vehicle as well. Biker would of been shouting at the passenger as well as its in yanksville. I don't think the biker has much to complain about really, doesnt excuse the mazda driver but we all know there are some morons on the road.

It reads like the rider is a bit of a twat, but no one deserves to be sideswiped.

It says in the story that apart from numerous traffic offences, the rider has been done for theft twice and burglary with assault.

It then goes on to say that he is demanding justice be served...oh the irony!

I'd say it's karma.
