       Saw that on the news this morning. I wonder what prompted the
       biker to kick the car though? It sure caused a lot of other
       folks a lot of grief.
       Pretty rare a Motorcycle comes out on top from an argument with
       a car.
       Not cheering for him however....Nonetheless...Was he just loco,
       or had the car fucked with him?  What's the law on this Luke?
       From what I see, MC rider kicks the car, then car tries to
       squash MC rider against the dividing wall, then car fucks up,
       rams the wall and flips another, innocent driver., possibly with
       serious injuries...Definitely serious damage to said drivers
       little truck....
       Arrest both the MC driver and the target of his ire?
       Great post by the way...

       I'm afraid I wouldnt know the rules/criteria regarding that
       AJ..I never made a traffic stop..
       that was out of my Bailiwick..I wasnt allowed to stop anyone for
       a MV violation, I had to request a local yokel Cop or a State
       Police officer.
       I could only attempt to stop someone if he was a fugitive or on
       a felony list.

       I'm outta your balliwick then. All I got is a misdemeanor
       conviction for possession of a controlled substance. 34 years
       ago.
       Don't kick my truck. The Bimmer can't take the blowback.

       yes, I realize my ' pregnant rollerskate' is definitely not a
       Road Warrior vehicle...peeps pull out in front of me at the last
       minute, either on purpose or because I am so low to the ground
       they can't  see me..
       I have my headlights/Driving lights on always..
       I get about the same road 'props' a Cyclist gets... >:(
       good thing Bavarian Motor Works provided a big fat blasting and
       bodacious horn.. :)
       I hit that horn. and it's so loud, I hope It makes the other
       driver leave a brown spot on their bucket seat.

       Oh, I think your BMW is the epitome of cool man. Really do.
       Those cars harken back to the years of all those great two seat
       foreign sports cars, MG's, Truimph's, Jag's, Alfa's,
       Fiat's...Yes i did think the Fiat spyder's were cool too.
       Except your BMW could smoke them all with two or in some cases
       three times as much Hosspower, a lot better handling, and a
       helluva a lot better brakes.

       yup AJ, my brothers and I had all those tempermental Brit
       cars..they were cheap, easy to work on but ALWAYS breaking
       down..
       We used to pull engines, replace clutches, do brake jobs
       overnight after coming home from an evening of partying when we
       lived at home..chain hoist  on the big swamp maple in the back
       yard..
       We lived in a nice 'hood and the nabes hated  us..haha.
       gave up on Brit cars after experiencing my first taste of
       Teutonic splendor when I bought a rust bucket 1969 Porsche 911
       with the fastest engine I ever experienced.
       here's a pic of my of my dear old  61 MGA 1500,

       Aw hell Luke...That MG is a beauty man...Classic lines. The
       autos of my youth weren't nearly as cool as yours. Volkswagens,
       Ford Falcons and Chevy Corvairs. Lessen ya count the two wheeled
       numbers...Cushman's and Honda's, Yamaha's and Kawasaki's....And
       a Schwinn with a Tecumseh lawn mower engine cabbaged on to
       it.....Wish i had pictures...

       I wish you had pics too AJ...but back in the Dark Ages when we
       were young...more than likely pics were taken with an  Kodak
       Instamatic or a Polaroid ..
       polaroid film was about 8 bucks a pack back then..mucho dinero..
       we used to chip in to buy polaroid film..then  share the camera
       to take a nude photo of our girlfriends..
       great visual aids for our favorite hobby back then ( besides
       playing in a band)  Spanking the Monkey,.. :)
       Hey, we had Falcons, Corvairs, and the ubiquitous VWs too.
       At least THEY had a backseat.  ;)

       One of the '61 Falcons I had was a wagon...Fold down the back
       seat and plenty of room for the horizontal mambo. It was jet
       black...My buddies dubbed it "The Batwagon"...
       And yeah I had a Brownie, and a Polaroid Swinger...Only took
       black and whites...Did take nude pics of one of my
       girlfriends...She got paranoid about it and asked me to tear
       them up. Told her I did......Years later, my wife at the time
       found them and tore them up for her...Man I was pissed...Then
       the wife got pissed that I was pissed...You know the story.
