My cousin has a motorcycle and when I got my new car he cut me off on the tiny shoulder where a car couldn't pass. I threw a bowl of chili at him, nailed him right in the head got chili on the bike. he angrily followed me home suprised that I pulled into his aunts driveway. he promptly yelled "what the f*** man?!" When I figured out it was him I apologized and then said I probably still would have done the same thing cause he cut me off.

I was in traffic today on the 410 and there was an accident. took 20 minutes to get through it and in that time 2 motorcycles passed us on the shoulder. Me and my friend talked about how we could get away with running tbhem off the road without getting caught .

So I hate motorcyclists...

I think he's talking about attempted manslaughter (or worse) of motorcyclists.

No just a good Spanking like you got when you were a kid and you cut in line.

To clarify, let me ask all motorcyclists, when given the chance would you weave through cars to get through traffic?

I have to admit there was a motorcycle 2 cars back and he waited patiently with the rest of us and I wanted to thank him for putting up with traffic like the rest of us.

Edit: please excuse my grammar, I'm posting this while in the passengers seat stuck in more traffic.

I might. But it would have to involve some pretty extreme circumstances.

Now let me ask you this: Are you one of those butt-head car drivers, yakking away on your cell phone, who is always pulling out in front of motorcycles, forcing them to go into a full skid in order to avoid slamming into your gas-guzzling behemoth of a vehicle?

in some states it is legal to lane split so I have no idea why you are mad because they can do that as long as they are obeying the law whats the problem?

I mean if were legal for you to not to sit in traffic and pass on the shoulder would you not do the same?

So what you're saying is you're whiny because they're lucky enough to get home before you?

Drivers like you give the rest of us a bad rep.

When I'm stuck in traffic, I make sure I leave room in my lane for a bike to pass, and even wave them by if they're hesitant. Just cause I'm stuck because I drive a car, doesn't mean they need to be when they can safely get home on time.

Mine is liquid cooled, so that's not a problem for me.

I gotta say though, EVERYTHING about the OP just screams, "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" How do you throw a bowl of chili out a car window & hit a guy on a motorcycle? Or why?
