I dont usually post shit like this but theres a possibility the person might be on here and I think they need a wake up call
You- newer bike, not sure of the make or model, but a Harley type copy most likely a Honda or Suzuki, white helmet, white jacket, wearing a backpack, younger white male
Me- Purple Caprice with SS appointments
You were in the left lane following slow moving traffic and I was behind you, the right lane became open and I gave you 10 seconds or so to move over and you did not, I signaled and as I merged into the right lane and began to accelerate you darted right across in front of me with no signal or warning, I hit the brakes hard and the horn
My front bumper missed contacting you by I bet a maxium of 6 inches at 55+ mph
You are very lucky that I was not like most people, dropping my cigarette on the floor (I am a non smoker), texting on my cell phone (I do not have one) or changing a cd (the car has a tape player) because if I was not paying attention I have no doubt I would have hit you hard and most likely killed you
Or if you survived the impact with my car I am pretty sure the tractor trailer behind me would have sent you on your merry way
You continued down camp and into Hamburg but I didnt get a chance to tell you to check your fucking mirrors before you change lanes, thats if you want to live anyways

By the look on his face when he realized he almost got hit I believe he is ok but his underwear may be questionable

i hope that is not a serious statement. i am a biker and i have seen other bikers almost killed becuase they have no respect for the cars around them and always think that the car sees them and will move.
Irresponsibility on both parts causes accidents.

I make about 3 phone calls a week, not worth it to me
