Again - when you're the guy on a 400 lb machine, it's just stupid to pick a fight with someone in 4000 lb car, they can literlaly kill you very easily.
 
So you're saying if you see someone texting and driving/not paying attention to what is going on around them--you don't/wouldn't say something? Not every ....... in a cage is gonna get pissed off for you asking them to pay attention. Even if 1 out of 10---or even 1 out of 50 people put down their phones and pay closer attention---You may save someone's life and you may save someone's family the pain and suffering that every single one of us know all too well. If I have a chance to say something and have the potential to make a difference--I'll take that chance every time.
 
I don't play traffic cop, and especially not on a bike. If they guy in a car is minding his own business and driving reasonably, I'm sure not going to pull up and tell him to "get off his f*ing cell phone" - that would tick anyone off - of course what the guy in the car did in response is far more serious (and criminal)

If you yelled at everyone texting on their phone you would be very busy!
 
That's not what I asked, I asked "if you see someone texting and driving and not paying attention--you wouldn't say something?" I don't play traffic cop either and I certainly wouldn't tell someone to "get off his ....... cell phone" as you so eloquently put it...but by not saying something is only kicking the can down the road and potentially putting someone else in harms way.
 
If I see someone not paying attention or driving erratically I usually pass them quick and stay well clear
 
Don't all you guys in the US have guns . Why don't you shoot their tyres or the phone out of their hands ?
 
Haha! I do carry a gun...guess it might just be easier to shoot people instead of asking them to pay attention!:D
 
We can not Carrry firearms like other states. Only under special circumstances can Californians get a concealed permit. Ca gun laws suck!
 
Don't conceal it then . Get a set up like this .My new KTM has cruise control so this would be perfect

^ is it just me or does the driver sound like a giggling 12 year old girl?

high speed rolls are where bikes don't fare as well against a 450-500+ hp car, motorcycle aerodynamics aren't that great
 
Road Rage Suspect Told Ex She’d Run Him Over: Docs

According to a domestic violence report and restraining order filed against Jackson by an ex-boyfriend, she has a history of abuse that includes a July 2012 incident in which she allegedly tried to run over her ex with her car after they got into an argument.

“As I was getting out, the Respondent [Jackson] put the car in the wrong gear causing the car to make a thud sound. The Respondent accused me of kicking her car. I told the Respondent, “I did not kick your car.” I began to talk away and the Respondent told me, “I’m going to run your b**cha** over with my car,” the document reads.
The restraining order goes on to say Jackson began driving toward her ex as he ran away.
“The Respondent still proceeded to come at me and I pushed myself off her hood,” the document said. “I proceeded to run and I eventually jumped over a fence to get away.”
