The Biker Who Rode For His Life Has Just Uploaded This Shocking 'How It Started' Video
Yesterday, we showed you shocking footage of a biker who had to ride for his life after a bald-headed car driver was quite clearly intent on running him off the road and doing him some damage. This being the internet, people assumed that the biker must have done something to provoke the man (just take a look at the YouTube comments), but it turns out that the car driver was simply a short-tempered douchebag who was having a seriously bad day.
As you can see in the video, the biker pulls in front of the car at a set of traffic lights (this is legal in many areas, but not all). Clearly not happy with the biker’s decision to do so, the driver pulls away from the lights hard, giving little room to the man on two wheels. The biker then races off down the road (at well over 100mph), and when the pair meet again at the next intersection, that’s where the aggression really kicks off. The man on the bike gives the driver the finger, the driver vomits some bad words and then, which is the real turning point, the biker smacks the guy’s mirror. That’s where things turn nasty and is the result of the shocking footage you watched last night:
So in conclusion: The driver is the main party at fault, but the biker did himself no favours in hitting the man’s car. Sometimes (actually always), it’s better to avoid confrontation and simply ride to the nearest cop shop. After all, this biker had all the footage he needed to ensure that the driver got what he deserved. What do you guys make of these events in light of this newly-released footage?
Thanks to CTzen Lucas Thezolin for the info and video footage (the biker is his mechanic).

Some hardcore Pickering right there
Biker is at fault by provoking him, and try to smash his mirror “to be cool” but the dmba* driver overreacted too.much, if i was the driver i would only give him a love tap, not mindlessly trying to chase after him…
#Banbikersfromtheroads
I do agree with you… but downvoating for your #… no no no… no banning
the irony of the police turning off at the very start of the first video then they’re no where to be seen for the rest!
aerodynamic rear view mirrors, fold back if Speed hits 130mph
That’s one fast car for him to keep up with the bike with traffic and all!
why care? bikes are faster anyways
Honestly, I have little sympathy for the biker on this occasion. Granted the driver’s move off the lights wasn’t clever but if you’re gonna filter through traffic you should at least be ready to launch, plus there was another lane for him to use. The driver’s actions after that though, completely unacceptable.
I think the other lane might have been right turn only, but I could be wrong
Guy in the car had hurt feelings over the bike getting ahead and made it a battle of egos. Biker went out of his way to show he was just as tough, and then they took turns escalating. Ridiculous situation. I feel like the biker has annoyed this guy off before to get such a wild reaction
I personally think that the biker deserves some of this. Firstly, to me, if a biker just suddenly pull in front of me when waiting for the traffic light, yes it may be legal, but it is slightly annoying, but I won’t try to run him down, I will just be like”meh, whatever.” But here is what I want to speak to the biker, you already know, when the light turns green, that he is a D-bag with a rough day. So then when he pulls in front of you at the next light, why can’t you say “hey dude I am really sorry I didn’t meant to offend you” instead of flipping you finger and slap his mirror. If you say you are sorry, then what comes next might not happens. This is where I get really annoyed by the bikes after watching so many videos. They think that they are totally invincible on the road and can provoke car drivers whenever they want, and car drivers just have to deal with it. When one driver loses his or her temper, they just took the video and post it on Youtube and act as they are the victim…..unbelievable!
If the biker hadn’t given any reaction to the car driving away fast there wouldn’t have been a problem.
People, you’re not alone on this world.. Have some respect for each other, please…
it’s not always the case, there are few angry asshls and no matter what they’ll try ‘’to teach’’ you. i was once on an intersection and I was in 3rd lane, witch was the lane to go on the left, and 2nd and 1st lane to go straight, as I needed to go straight I tried to move from 3rd to 2nd lane, I waited like 5 cars to pass. When I see enough space I give it some gas and the driver witch would pass me presses kickdown to not let me in. I brake and let him go, he stops in front on my car, screams somethings and goes ahead, and as green turned red, he was the first at red light, I behind him. During sitting at red he was looking at me throw the back window like he wants to kill me. At green light he presses the gas pedal to the floor, I start normal, and in 2 sec he slows down and brakes in place, I brake right at his bumper and he looks again at me, I press the horn he nothing. I start to pass him on the left he goes on the left and brakes there. It’s not a problem I could kick his bum I never go to provocations of angry people. I launched as fast as I can on the right, and he began to pursuit me. like 100m ahead I saw police car and i knew I’m safe, and that jackass calmed down. If ne the chase would be much longer.
As a man, I have no responsibility to allow someone to treat me like that with no response. As long as I am willing to take any loss I receive due to my actions, I am free to respond to aggression with equal force. I accept societies request I not walk around starting things, but that is all. I have no responsibility to coddle anyone who pushes me, their life is not my problem. If I was on that bike I’d have either been maneuvering between streets to lose him or looking for a good place to “adjust” his attitude. I tend to keep tools on hand that equalize force to aggressors, only as they force me too. I don’t know where this turn the other cheek nonsense is coming from in our society. If that is your choice, fine.. But since when did being a man who respects himself become a bad thing? TL;DR- Don’t start it if you don’t want it.
I’m not a biker but I had a dude try to run me of the road for not hitting the gas as soon as the light turned green almost ended up in a tree with a gun pointed at me
Uh… the biker could have disengaged at any point. He didn’t need to engage. Virtually non of that had to happen.
All he had to do was hang back, take a turning or whatever and the next day the car driver wakes up an arse and the biker wakes up a biker.
Instead, they both wake up complete arses the next day and the biker is lucky he’s still a biker.
Morons begatting morons.
