    Angry I nearly died

    Yeah, well riding home today from work, i guy came into an intersection and didn't give way. it was raining (still is) and he pulled right out in front of me and i had to come is a skidding halt. thats not fun on a motor bike. any who. i thought WTF and continued along behind him after he fixed up his cruddy driving and odd angle one the road.

    just after the intersection theres another one and theres a stop sign there. he didn't stop. he just powered threw and slid his car out side ways hit a gutter , the car bounces off the gutter into my direction, I'm just happy that i just brought the bike new, so it has good breaks.

    Definitely report this scumbag. As a fellow rider these people need to be taught! This guy is a danger to not only bikes but cars, passengers, pedestrians and private property!

    ...or you could just report him now that you know who it is and get this guy's licence suspended or revoked. Smashing his car would inconvenience him some and put him a bit out of pocket, but once he gets it all repaired he'll be back on the streets endangering other road users. :/

    I reckon you should report him. Then kick him in the janglies.

    That would be a more justified way of doing things, would be less fun, but yeah, it could work.
