A motorcyclist got more than he bargained for while making a pass on a two-lane road on Saturday when a driver swerved and hit the bike, sending both passengers to the ground. The drivers response to the whole thing? I dont care.
The rider, Eric Sanders who posted the video taken by a fellow traveller to Facebook shortly after it happened said in the comments section that he suffered road rash and his girlfriend went to an intensive care unit in Texas after the incident.
So the driver intentionally running into him means nothing to you?I don't care either. It was an illegal pass, I don't have any sympathy for people injured as a direct result of breaking the law.
How much over the speed limit was the motorcycle going?The motorcyclist shouldn't have been speeding and passing on a double yellow either.

It doesn't really matter what the biker was doing when it is obvious by the video he intentionally tried to hit the biker. One trumps the other. Had one or both of the bikers died, this would be quite an interesting story as they try to use "he was passing in a double yellow" as a defense.
a blog called "lanesplitter"? posted on ATOT?

So the motorcyclist intentionally ignoring the laws and endangering everyone else on the road means nothing to you?
See how that works? Let me ask you, which person broke the law first? And would that person have been in a position to be hit if he didn't make the decision to intentionally break the law?
what a stupid argument.
what if there was a person crossing the street there, and the person was on the left side of the road, and the car swerved over and hit the person on purpose "because they are jaywalking" since there is no crosswalk there.
in your eyes that would be justified?
it's flat out attempted murder and i hope that redneck gets put in jail for it. i'm surprised how cool the guy with the camera was about it all when talking to the guy. seems like he was completely in shock too because when he went back to the girl on the ground they asked him what the guy said and he said he didn't remember but had it on video.
The motorcycle could be perceived as much more of a threat than a pedestrian so your argument kind of sucks too.
Wow. So if someone is speeding I have the right to hit them with my car? Or if someone is jaywalking I have the right to plow right through them?So the motorcyclist intentionally ignoring the laws and endangering everyone else on the road means nothing to you?
