Told one guy last fall, to kindly get ****ed as I pulled along his passenger side at a light - he turned left onto the road I was traveling and instead of staying in his inner lane/left lane, he swung wide all the way into my lane (right lane) as I approached before returning to the left very abruptly. He responded with something along the lines of 'maybe I should get out and you can say that shit to me again'. I said calmly and shrugged "I got all day, do what ya gotta do bud".

He got out I shut off the bike, and got off of it, and I figured 'alright let's do this'. That mother****er didn't even make it around the headlight on his side. Started spouting off more shit. Told him to come closer and I'd "say that shit again" so he'd be sure to hear it. He got back in then sped off, while trying to swerve right and swipe my parked bike. Pulled even with him a few lights later and just waved at him while he flipped me off. Had he walked all the way over to me I would've swung without blinking an eye.

If it gets to that point where a dude is wanting to fight, getting out of a car and walking over to me then talking is over in my book. HE might think there's still talking to be had, but he'd be wrong. If some shithead wants to get out tangle over some dumb shit I'm down for that. Hell, I've lost fights and won fights.so no big deal to me either way. Getting hit sucks, but knocking a mother****er on his ass when he wanted to be a tough guy is Sooooo worth it.


people lose their minds with this road rage shit LMAO( not laughing at this particular incident with McKnight, just in general). It's incredible to witness as a biker. Woman, in my experience, have some of the worst rage out there.


Are you a big dude?

People tend to exhibit the same behavior online, but there's not a lot of harm that can be caused from behind a monitor.

It's weird, but one's driving persona can be different than the one you see every day. I know some people who have no temper in everyday life that I've ever seen, but when they are being the wheel they go biserk.

I'm completely the opposite. I'd say I have quite a temper in real life, but not at people. So that is probably where I differ. I get very frustrating when I'm trying to put a gutter back on, put something together that I bought, spill something on the floor, trying to complete a project etc. But when someone cuts me off, I'm like meh, oh well. When someone is traveling the speed limit in the left lane? Doesn't bother me at all, I just pass them on the right. Problem solved. Someone flips me off? I just laugh and ignore them. For road ragers, it's almost like an ego thing...it's like who do you think you are that you can do that to ME?

So, they are certainly in the wrong, but you seem to be inciting alot of this behavior based on your post. Your simple giving people the bird and cussing at them at lights is a symptom of road rage.

I agree. If I accidentally did differing and then they came up acting like an asshole I would be pissed too.

He's 14" if you measure from asshole to tip Billay. You sound like a man who is open for the job.

Saying something to someone at a stoplight after they almost run you off the road on your bike isn't instigation. It's communication that it's not appreciated, and to let them understand they they just jeopardized your life. Dayze isn't an aggressive guy at all... In fact, out of all the bikers I've been around, he's fairly tranquil.
