Bikers vs E28

Semantics.

Brandishing is when someone displays a firearm in a manner specifically intended to induce the fear of being shot in another person. The key is INTENT.

Generally one has to be holding the firearm to brandish, but not always.

This. The difference is intent. Brandishing is done either to intimidate with malicious intent or in the commission of a crime. Drawing a gun when a loved one is being attacked by 3 armored assailants is legal and not considered brandishing (states where your right to self defense or defense of loved ones is not honored nonwithstanding).

Homie should have stayed in his shiny E28, but what his wife did wasn't brandishing.

I rode a lot to and I know exactly what road this is on and if he was just changing lanes there was no need to catch up to them and start something. I have almost been clipped by a car on that exact same road and one of my friends was killed on that road by a car that pulled in front of him. I agree with exodus if you can move over to the right do so. If not stay where you are and if the person on the bike is smart enough they will get around you but the worst thing you can do is make a quick action at the last minute

That's how it goes. Brandishing equals instant kindness.

No one got shot. But it made everyone nice in a hurry.

There is a lot of stupidity in this video. Guns are the answer to all of your problems when you are surrounded by morons, right

I used to ride, a lot. I have a few scars to show for it.

I will repeat, this video is a perfect example of why you do not pass on the right. Both bikes were coming up fast, and in both lanes. Always expect a car to move on you, but a car moving to the right lane is a correct course of action.

Not generalizing, the guys on the bikes were in the wrong at the beginning.

One more time, there is a reason why you do not pass on the right.

As for the video the guy in the e28 clearly pulled to right very hard as the biker was coming up he definitely heard the biker trust me you dont not hear a street bike on the freeway doing 80+ cuz anything over 2k rpm on a bike is usually pretty loud unless you ride a learner bike (250) sorry lol

You fail to take into consideration the possibility that he was more than likely focused on the other bike. It is also hard to judge a bike's acceleration from a rearview mirror, especially the passenger's side mirror. Not to mention, maybe the biker shouldn't ride like an asshole.

When I make a mistake, I acknowledge it. But when I make a mistake and someone is a jackass to me about it, that sets me off big time. I understand the man in the E28's anger. Yes, he didn't make a mature move. But, if you punch my fucking mirror, even on my GTP where parts would be a dime a dozen, there's no damn way I'm letting you get away with it.

I used to ride daily, playing ping pong with cars for 70 miles a day. Gave it up.

I love how people love to hop on the "f*ck bikers" oh those "squids" bandwagon get outta here with that crap you see a couple youtube videos of some assholes on a bike and you generalize. Funny thing is the people that hate have probably never ridden a bike a day in their life and have no idea what its like navigating traffic with people that dont know how to drive a car (thank you dmv!). I have had so many times on my bike when ive been cut off by people and all this bs and I still and always will ride with respect. Don't let a few peoples actions cloud your judgment. (rant over)

This.^ Doesn't matter what "culture" your in, people gonna people. Tempers flare and people make stupid mistakes. Not a fan of motorcycles bad habits, especially in California. Enjoy your bikes, cars, trucks or whatever, just heed this sage advice my dad once gave me...."Don't be a fucking idiot and you'll live longer!"

Words to live by!

Btw, that e28 guy's woman is one hell of a fat cow.

I wonder if she is Samoan?
