RANT......OUTRAGED Motorcyclist takes his revenge.

I've been riding for 30+ years now and contribute that to saving my life today from some snot nosed prick with a cell phone for an ear. You sir broke the camels back and sent me into a rage.

You sir only saw me once today when you screeched out from that side street cutting me off and forcing me to get real hard on the brakes with the horn a blaren so I didn't T-bone the side of your nice and clean lexus (nice job and time you put into cleaning the wheels yesterday, more on that later) You looked at me from the helm of your 3 thousand pound death machine like I was the one who got in your way, you threw me a bird and went pack to the conversation on your cell phone leaving me sitting there in the street with a beating heart and thoughts of my kids crying and asking for daddy.

This is nothing new for me, It happens all the time and I anticipate you cage driving idiots everyday. I've had a few close calls over the years but you sir took the cake today for you saw me coming and decided in that moment it was more important to cut in front of me than wait 3 more seconds till i was past.

You didn't see me for the rest of your commute, but I sure saw you driving like a fool cutting people off left and right, running that red light for you were to much in a hurry to get to starbucks for your venti candy bar in a cup. You didn't see me waiting across the street for you to leave, you didn't see me follow you to work as you became that person on the road we all love to hate. You were the tailgating lane changen fool throwing birds and blaring your horn every chance you got. You didn't see me park on the street as I watched you get pissed because someone took your favorite parking space under the big tree, you screeched off to the back of the lot to find somewhere else to park, you didn't see me as you hawked up a lugee and spit on the co-workers car who was in your favorite parking space (they will now for I left them a note). You didn't see me as I watched you lug your briefcase through the front door STILL on that damm phone of yours.

You didn't see me walk across the parking lot to where your pretty car was parked. You sir did a nice job cleaning that cage over the weekend, or you paid some mexican to do it, even the wheels were super clean, you must have spent an hour using a toothbrush on those overpriced rims you feel make you look cool. You didn't see me take my keys from my belt and produce the largest of the bunch, Thanks Medco for making such large keys!, and proceed to drag it along that nice waxed paint.. round and round I went, 3 times dragging that key with enough force to go past the paint and into the metal below.

You didn't see me pull out my dick and proceed to piss into the vents and on the windshield, 3 cups of coffee this morning, asparagus for dinner last night (purely coincidence) and 35 miles outa my way sure produced a nice volume of stinky pee. I saved a few squirts for those shiny rims and then shook it off with a large smile on my face.

I felt that was enough but I really wanted to slash your tires and got pissed at myself for leaving the leatherman at home today so I walked back to my bike and started my commute to work for which i was now 30 minutes late. I didn't care because for once, I was glad to not be seen.

When you walk out from work, you'll see my handywork and drop your briefcase, and hopefully that damm phone to and sit and stare at your now ruined car..
WHAT THE you'll scream and it pleases me that you'll never know who violated your shiny new car..

All you had to do was look and see me or anyone else for that matter and today would not have been one horrible monday.

Peace and have a good week.

wow, I certainly wouldn't have documented my actions if I were the type to do this.

But that may be just the point, I wouldn't have done it in the first place I would have
confronted the jerk when he got out of his car and gotten him to acknowledge his mistake.
rather than take revenge on the (inanimate object) car.

Sorry about the language. I thought the filter would catch it. Keep in mind that I didn't do this, but I saw it on a board and got a good laugh out of it. I would have went about it a different way myself, but it was still pretty funny. If anything I like the peeing in the heater vents idea, but I couldn't key someone elses ride. Talk about someone who is passive aggressive! I'm more of a straight aggressive person myself.

I've found that yanking the driver out through the window really gets their attention. It may or may not make them drop the phone.

I don't know if I would have vandalized the car. I probably wouldn't have but if I did..
If I did I would certainly stick around unseen to watch the bastid's face change look & color.

It sounds like a real Kodak moment.

That is the excellent. I agree that the cager should have been dealt wth at the first stop, but as the saying goes "revenge is sweeter when served cold".

Worst I've done is a handful of pennies across the windshield after I caught up to him and passed on his right side, casting the copper coins cascading in a cavalcade of currency onto the car.

Revenge should be sweet, not meaningless and anonymous.

Not my style at all.

I like to get "up close and personal" they tend to remember for a few minutes or so.

Keep in mind that I didn't do this, but I saw it on a board and got a good laugh out of it.

Jeez, If the bike rider was so upset why didn't he confront the cager face to face instead hiding and waiting for him to go inside to deface his car. If the cager didn't have it out for motorcyclists then, he will now!

I guess I'm just lucky. I ride my Buell just about everyday and have yet to have a confrontation with a cager. Sure, they they do their best to take me out from time to time but riding defensively has saved me every time. I just can't see doing something to a cager that they might take it out own the next rider they see! I just never put myself in a situation that the cager has the upper hand on me. Perhaps it's the 30+ years of racing on dirt that has trained me to be aware of my surroundings so that riding on pavement is so easy to me!

I disagree with Buellfighter, if you confront the individual then they know it was someone on a bike. The way that gentleman(loosely used)did it the person wouldn't know who it was, heck it could have been the person who's car he spat on

I (foolishly) chased down an offending cager once, merely demanding that they roll down their window to explain to me why they thought my life was unimportant.

It was later explained to me by my loving wife that sometimes the other guy carries a GUN, and no traffic arguement is worth that sort of loss.

Since that time I've made several physical efforts to LIFT my foot off the floor when the urge to chase hits. Let it go, they will still be an a*****e whether they hear it directly from you or not.

trying to justify breaking the law/vandalism with "oh, he cut me off" is just plain stupid...

that guy has done a wonderful job of converting someone who was indifferent to bikers to someone who will now hate them with a passion

to document it is amazing...and to assume no-one was watching or he wasn't seen...in this day and age...that's pretty naive

I had the honor of almost being obliterated on the freeway one day by a merging SUPER CAGER (SUV) crossing the white hatched area of the merging ramp. My defensive riding,in order to avoid the terminal impact that almost took place, required the CHP officer next to me to emergency brake in order to not impact me!!

The CHP officer proceeded to pull over the phalic cranium and I proceeded over with him and stopped as well. After the officer explained the situation to the driver, he proceeded to ask ME if there was anything I would like to say to the individual. I denied the offer, but asked the officer if he would get the driver out of the car, so he could see me in plain view, and then ask him how he did not see me.

I am riding a bike with bright gold wheels, wearing a florecent yellow helmet, bright red JR jacket with the flourecent yellow ICON vest over it, and armored pants (blue). The driver said he never saw me, and I about fell over!! Even the officer said "NO WAY"

But oh, the great equalizer is what is in his left hand, the infamous cyclist killer, the cell phone. The officer asked me if he was on the phone, and I honestly did not notice, was looking for an escape route, but I would put my miniscule navy pay check on it, as it never stopped ringing while he was standing there.

The officer sited him for:
Failure to yield
Reckless driving while merging
Reckless endangerment
Failure to observe posted(painted)roadway warnings
and a couple other things.

I would hate to see his insurance bill after that!!

You know I figured a LONG time ago, if I got PO'd every time someone screwed up around me, I was just going to spend my ride and my life PO'd and I'd end up with the stress coronary someday.

My favorite quote for this is from the Penguins in MADAGASCAR. " SMILE AND WAVE BOYS, SMILE AND WAVE."

That's what I do now so they still know they almost killed me but I don't end up having to 'return fire'.

I thought about that too so I tried to remember when the last time was I saw a white or black guy working at the car wash actually washing the cars. Never have but then again he couldve used the term "hispanic", either way Im not offended (this comming from a Mexican) because I tend to beleive its the truth even if it is presented bluntly...
